The oil is sent to the boiler via pipes, and from then on, it works much like a gas central heating system. You’ll have thermostats which operate in the same way, and a timer with which you can control heating and hot water.

Like gas, oil-fuelled central heating is a ‘wet’ system. It heats up water with an oil-fired boiler, which then flows to your radiators and hot taps.

These are common enough not to be unusual, but there are certainly pros and cons worth being aware of – both with the heating system, and the oil tank itself. Here we’ll look at some of the considerations to bear in mind with oil central heating.

Oilrefinery

Most UK oil-fuelled systems run on kerosene. While research is being conducted into cleaner, more sustainable biofuel, this isn’t really an option at the time of writing.

As tanks are frequently kept outside and at a distance from the house, heating oil theft is a risk, and can prove very costly.

If you’re thinking of moving home, it’s worth seeing what kind of heating system the property uses. There’s a chance it may have oil-fuelled central heating. One big giveaway will be a large storage tank, probably in the garden.

Petrol

Your boiler needs a lot of cleaning, and contains perishable parts. For this reason, it should be serviced annually. According to the Heating Hub, this should cost you £120-£180 a year, depending on what needs to be replaced.

OFTEC also recommends servicing your oil tank and other equipment annually. It’s worth checking if your home insurance covers leaks or spills, and whether the policy has any limitations. Leaking fuel can be costly to clean up, and risks contaminating ground water.

ANFO

Regulations in Northern Ireland are similar to those in England, and all tanks with a capacity greater than 3,500 litres should be bunded. You can read the full storage regulations here.

For the technical specifications and regulations concerning where the tank should be placed, read OFTEC’s guide to domestic liquid fuel storage.

As they take up a lot of space, most people’s oil tanks are stored in their garden. They can also be stored in outbuildings such as a garage. Plus the oil needs to be delivered periodically, so it should also be easily accessible by lorry.

Your tank will need to be installed by someone registered with a ‘Competent Person’ scheme. They’ll perform a risk assessment, and may decide you need secondary containment – ie a bunded tank.

According to consumer magazine Which?, the average annual cost of using heating oil for heating and hot water is £830. However, it’s worth noting that the cost of oil is variable, and tends not to be very steady. For example, the average cost of kerosene heating oil was 43p a litre in January 2017, but rose to 52p a litre over two years.

If your tank can store 3,501 litres or more, you’ll need to follow the regulations for businesses. Find out more about storing oil at GOV.UK.

The main difference with oil is that you don’t get a steady supply coming directly into your home from your provider. Rather, you need to store a quantity of oil in a tank, which you either buy or rent.

Wales is the first country in the UK to require secondary containment for fuel tanks over 200 litres. In other words, if your tank can store 201 litres or more, you’ll need a bunded tank (although oil containers installed at homes before 15 March 2016 are exempt). This must hold at least 110% of the capacity of the inner tank. This is to reduce the risk of oil contamination to the environment.

Tanks can either be single-skin or bunded. Single-skin tanks have just one layer for oil containment, meaning they tend to be cheaper, but less secure. Bunded tanks have a second layer of containment. There are different regulations regarding single-skin and bunded tanks, which we’ll look at below.

Also check to see if your oil tank comes with a manufacturer’s guarantee. This means that, if something goes wrong within the life of the guarantee, the manufacturer should repair or replace the tank and shoulder the cost.
