A low profile single skin oil tank is a heating oil storage container with a single-wall construction designed specifically with a reduced height. These tanks are ideal for homeowners who want to keep their oil tank discreet, as the low height allows them to be easily hidden behind a standard garden fence or wall.
A single skin tank can be used in domestic settings where the capacity is below 2,500 litres, provided the installation site is considered 'low risk' by an OFTEC technician. This means the tank must not be within 10m of controlled water (rivers, streams) or 50m of a borehole or well, and there must be no risk of fuel reaching a manhole or drain in the event of a spill.
Most low profile tanks in this collection have a height between 900mm and 1100mm. This is significantly shorter than standard vertical tanks, making them perfect for sensitive areas where you want to maintain a clear line of sight or avoid the tank being seen over a boundary fence.
The main benefits include a lower purchase price compared to bunded models, ease of installation due to their lighter weight, and a very stable center of gravity. Their wide footprint and low height make them incredibly sturdy and less visually intrusive in a residential garden.
Because low profile tanks are shorter and wider, they require a larger base area than vertical models. The base must be made of a fire-resistant material (like concrete or 50mm paving slabs), be perfectly level, and extend 300mm beyond all sides of the tank to ensure full structural support.
We stock high-quality low profile single skin tanks from leading UK manufacturers such as Titan (Kingspan), Deso, and Harlequin. These brands are chosen for their high-grade, UV-stabilised plastic and their adherence to UK manufacturing standards.
Yes, most of our plastic single skin tanks are suitable for standard Kerosene (C1/C2), Gas Oil, and HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil). Always refer to the specific product technical data sheet to confirm compatibility with high-percentage Bio-Diesel blends.
Standard single skin tanks typically come with a 2-year manufacturer’s warranty on the tank shell. While the warranty period is shorter than that of bunded tanks, the high-quality UV-stabilised MDPE material is designed for a service life of 20 years or more when installed correctly.
