Roth double-wall tanks are designed to offer the highest level of environmental protection. Avoid oil spills and leaks caused by defective pipes, couplings, or fittings which are located underneath the tank.

Every inner Roth tank is made out of blow-molded, high-density polyethylene that is seamless, absolutely leak-proof, and corrosion-resistant.

In addition, Roth tanks feature top connections to ensure the oil stays where it should. Roth tanks are completely rust-free, inside and out. Minimize the potential dangers and disasters of oil spills and leaks caused by corrosion. The outer tank is made out of galvanized steel, roll seamed no welds with an oil and fire-resistant seal, making it one of the safest and most reliable tanks on the market. Insulate the fuel lines. Use waterproof materials to insulate the whole fuel supply system. Keep the oil filters indoor.

How much does a gallon oil tank cost? Do you need planning permission to install an oil tank? Installing a fuel tank is considered to be permitted development, not needing planning permission, subject to the following limits and conditions: Not more than 3, litres capacity. Not forward of the principal elevation fronting a highway.

Maximum overall height of three metres. Do oil tanks need to be raised? Where oil tanks need to be elevated, for example to supply a range cooker, it's important that the tank is correctly supported and the manufacturer's installation instructions are followed.

Plastic oil tanks must be supported across their entire base. How far should oil tank be from boiler? Other experts suggest a minimum of 7' or 10' separation between the closest point of the tank and boiler. Can oil tanks be inside? You can keep your tank in a tray, which will catch any potential small drips. Keeping the tank indoors protects from ice storms, vandalism, and temperature changes, which is an easy way to help ensure a long, issue-free service life.

But since I had heard all the stuff about these water heaters it must have just been me, right? The tap that was really driving me nuts though, especially for the past year or so is the kitchen tap which is located almost exactly above the heater, the hot water line looks to be less that feet long. That tap has a single handle so of course full hot would be selected as described.

If washing a glass or dish I'd adjust the tap to comfortable-on-the-hands temperature, less than hot. After a few minutes, three or four, the water would start to get cold so I'd move the tap back to the full hot position Feels really long, doesn't it?

Whatever they suggested I did. I had the plumbing altered per their suggestion to install a backwash line. Real long story shorter, I've spent a fair bit of hard-earned on this item.

The builder has nothing to do with any of this since any new house warranty had long expired by the time I figured I was going to sort this out.

I won't bother describing that experience but you all can use your imaginations about trying to talk to a human at some outfit that's spent big bucks to try to make that as difficult as possible.

Suffice to say they were no help at all, but I did get a customer number. No one carries Bosch around here any more. No one. I was considering another brand of these things, ones that required less flow to activate the heater since I thought that might be the problem, when I heard the strangest thing. My workmate was Dutch I don't know what the person that said that we're the last ones that still use tanks is talking about.

My wife suggested we just change to the brand of on-demand heater at Home Depot with their warranty etc. And for conecaster's advice? I'm done with throwing good money after bad. After all wasn't simplicity one of the on-demand water heater's selling points? Think about it for three seconds. Tank rupturing? You've got to be kidding me if you think I'm going to worry about that. To my mind that's a non-issue. If no luck with that I'm going to use it for target practice.

Sorry about the novella. Shutting down a drug house Q. Kelly, thanks for the great info and leads. I'll look into all of them. The dog owner blew it off, and the plantiff won. The dog owner may well lose her home over this. I haven't had a chance to go through them carefully, I know it's a nightmare. Unwanted, it was a HUGE blessing as it turns out that these people have not one, but TWO gun safes in every room--I assume the kitchen and bathroom are excluded, but who knows? There is also a huge cache of ammo in the garage.

Anyway, as it turns out, my email about the situation to a councilwoman was forwarded to the police department, and I got a call from one of the sergeants this morning. He hadn't heard about the fire or the two gun safes in every room, and was very interested that aspect of things. The narcotics unit will be investigating looking for probably cause to get in that house.

If they do, you can bet it will be a 4 a. SWAT raid. BTW, the way I know about the gun safes is that he was told that by people on the fire as they had to investigate it. I'm also going to see about getting an ordinance prohibiting parking vehicles in designated 'yards' passed as that would give code enforcement some leverage to get rid of all the junker cars and motor home that haven't moved in years. Austin and Houston Texas both have such ordianances. Need help with my new GE Cafe range Q.

Nancy - I think you might be alright with your plan, but I'd be worried about not having the installation comply. Especially for resale purposes. More than half of the cooktop and range installations that you see on Houzz do not technically comply either.

Appliance companies don't want you to know this because buyers go for looks. Inspectors do not enforce the small print in the specs that are specific to each appliance. They go by uniform code and local ordinance.

This is particularly an issue with large powerful professional appliances. Buyers want their backsplash to shine and don't want the heat guard. Many times you see them installed against a wall using the island kit.

That is a no-no, but it looks great. It isn't usually a problem with smaller stoves like yours but given the amount of heat coming out of your oven, it seems to be more powerful than usual. Sometimes, the manufacturers slip some notes into a section you wouldn't even notice.

In one spot, not in the usual spec section, was simply a note than said installation with island kit, short back guard or tall back guard is required. It didn't say only use the island kit on an island with so much clearance.
