We had a new bunded plastic oil tank for the c/h installed 3 years ago. The wretched plumber didn't install anything to check what the fuel level is. I have to dip it with a bamboo cane !
I have other oil tanks for my business and also have an Atkinson Tankmaster sight gauge in stock. Problem is of course that the tank is never empty. Is there a way of fitting this guage while the fuel level is low (tilting the tank would not be easy) or are the float type of gauge that you put in the top of the tank any good. The tap shown on the filter is too far away from the tank to be of any use for installing the sight gauge.
I would prefer a sight glass because I read the oil useage on a regular basis and know how many litres an inch is so I am able to determine useage.
I have searched the Forum but can't find my answer. TIA for any help.
