Hi folks,
I did some searching about preserving fuel oil in the tank for the oil burner. We only burned a few gallons this year, mostly to be sure that the oil furnace was working and ready to go in the event that it was really needed.... Our tank is located in the basement.
I guess what I'm asking is what would you recommend to maintain / preserve the oil in the tank? Some are saying fuel conditioner / algacide, and some say keep an extra filter and nozzle around in the event of sludge buildup.
The condition of the actual tank shouldn't be a problem, as our homeowner insurance requires it to be replaced every 10 years anyhow....
Thanks in advance!
