CAUSE OF RESIDENTIAL TANK FAILURES
Corrosion is the singular leading cause of residential oil tank failures. Ultrasonic tank testing is the only means to determine the internal thickness of oil tanks and identify tanks that need to be replaced before they leak or cause major environmental damage.
Added Value
Ultrasonic tank testing evaluates your oil tank and help determine if it is due for a replacement. Home/property owners benefit from proactive testing and the tank replacement payment, should their current tank qualify.
Fewer Leaks
Ultrasonic tank testing technology is EPA approved to assess the integrity of an oil tank. You can identify the internal thickness of tanks to determine if they are at risk for a leak before they become a major problem.

The process that The TankSure® Program employs for ultrasonic testing is based on these EPA and API standards and guidelines.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and American Petroleum Institute (API) approve ultrasonic testing as a method for determining the integrity of fuel oil storage tanks. While these agencies do not currently regulate home heating oil tanks, rather they regulate larger commercial tanks, the methods they approve are directly applicable to home heating oil tanks. In fact, the applications are identical.
The process that the TankSure® Program employs for ultrasonic testing is based on these EPA and API standards and guidelines. The TankSure® Program fulfills all inspection requirements including record keeping and data tracking through the TankSure® Cloud Database. The ultrasonic thickness gauges used for the TankSure® Program inspections are specifically designed for testing home heating oil tanks.
