Few Security Tips for liter oil tanks
Are you searching for quality tips on managing liter free tanks? Then go through this article to gather some quality tips and information. Heating or diesel oil is always a very valuable component of nature that helps us to perform a lot of tasks. In areas where supply of mains gas supply is not sufficient, homeowners of that particular area installed the domestic oil tanks at their homes to fulfill their need of heating oil. However, oil is always one of the most attractive propositions for the thieves. Since the price of oil is notably high in the market, the tendency of stealing it and sell it in the market is huge. The increase of oil theft is mostly experienced at the time of hard economic times. So, it becomes your duty to protect your domestic oil tanks from the thieves.
The advent of technologies can be used in some wrong purposes as well and oil thieves know this very well. With the help of small mobile pumps and hand power instruments, thieves can easily get entry into your domestic oil tank and pump the oil to other containers that they bring with them. A 2,000 litre oil tank can be emptied within few minutes by the thieves. And your heating oil can be their good source of “income”.
Security Tips:
Place the tank close to your house so that you can have a view of the tank all the time. Don’t place the tank close to roads or fields that can be easily used by the outsiders. In such situations thieves can locate and reach to your oil tank easily. However, the tank needs to be placed at a reasonable distance from the road so that the oil supply company can refill the tank easily.
Always use a good quality lock system when it comes to protecting your liter oil tank. Close shackle padlocks are the most efficient. They provide maximum security against the mostly used burger tools like bolt cropper.
You can install alarm to your oil tanks. A sudden alarm will rang if the oil level inside the tank suddenly drops below a certain level. You can have the alarm in your kitchen or living room from where you can easily hear that sound and can be aware about the potential problem.
