Our Accreditations
Many homes in Verwood and the surrounding East Dorset and Hampshire countryside rely on oil-fired heating systems because they are not connected to the mains gas network. Having a safe and properly installed oil tank is essential to ensure reliable heating and hot water throughout the year.
The team at Total Energy Services recently completed an oil tank replacement at a property in Verwood, Dorset, installing a new Deso bunded oil tank to replace an older tank that had reached the end of its service life.
The homeowner contacted us after noticing signs that their existing oil tank was deteriorating. Older tanks can become brittle over time or develop cracks, which increases the risk of leaks.
Common reasons we carry out oil tank replacements in Verwood include:
Ageing single-skin oil tanks
Cracks or weaknesses in plastic tanks
Rusting steel oil tanks
Tanks that no longer meet current regulations
Upgrading to a modern bunded oil tank
Replacing an oil tank before it fails helps avoid environmental damage and ensures the heating system continues to operate safely.
For this project, our engineers installed a Deso bunded oil tank, which provides a double-layer design to improve safety and environmental protection.
The installation included:
Safely disconnecting and removing the old oil tank
Preparing a suitable base for the new tank
Installing the Deso bunded oil tank
Reconnecting the oil supply to the boiler
Carrying out full safety checks and commissioning
Deso oil tanks are known for their high-quality construction and durability, making them a popular choice for homeowners across Dorset.
Modern oil tank installations usually use bunded tanks, which provide extra protection.
Key benefits include:
Improved environmental protection
The outer bund helps contain oil if the inner tank fails.
Greater safety
Reduces the risk of leaks and contamination.
Insurance compliance
Many insurers now require or recommend bunded tanks.
Long service life
High-quality tanks provide many years of reliable use.
