As we all know, Maine weather takes its toll, causing ground shifts, frost heaves, rust, and general wear, all of which can affect a heating oil supply tank and its piping. Weather, corrosion, and poor maintenance can lead to spills, smells, leaks, well water contamination, and lower property values. It’s time to see if your tank and piping are in shape.

The Maine EPA has prepared a checklist for you to make sure your oil tank is in top shape. YO can find the checklist and other very good suggestions at Maine EPA
