Had the oil tank serviced yesterday and the guy has put a sticker on the oil tank stating, 'Immediate Danger. Do Not Fill'
His explanation is that the tank is developing hair line cracks/splits so the tank needs to be replaced. He showed me the 'split' which looks like a small scratch.
Can any of our oil/gas engineers give an opinion? Marks are on the radius towards the right just above the label near the reflection of light.
Personally I don't think it's of any immediate danger and thankfully we had it filled, (now at the 3/4 level), 3 days ago.
House is rented and I know landlord will get it done but just don't want him being 'fleeced' for something that may not actually be necessary. I don't know how old the tank is but we have been here 6 years.
