Summer Is Around the Corner but Don’t Forget About Your Heating Oil Tank!
Just because your heating system is on vacation during the summer doesn’t mean your heating oil tank should be out of mind. In fact, the warmer months are the perfect time to show your tank a little love. Giving it the proper care now can help prevent corrosion, clogs, and those surprise repairs nobody wants once the cold weather returns.
Keep That Tank Full This Summer
A full tank is a happy tank! When warm, humid air sneaks into a partially filled tank, it can cause condensation to build up inside. That moisture can mix with leftover oil and turn into sludge, leading to clogs, corrosion, and long-term damage. Come fall, this gunk can mess with your system’s performance or even result in costly repairs.
Keeping your heating oil tank full during summer helps:
- Prevent internal corrosion that can lead to tank leaks
- Avoid clogged fuel lines from sludge buildup
- Extend the lifespan of your heating system
- Keep your home ready for an early cold snap
Book Your Off-Season Tune-Up
Summer is also the ideal time to schedule your annual heating tune-up. Once things cool down, service calls book up fast. Getting in early means more flexibility and gives our expert technicians a chance to inspect, clean, and test your system after its heavy winter workload. A preseason tune-up from Sound Energy helps catch small issues before they turn into big headaches.
