Description

Tuffa 1200 Litre Plastic Bunded Fire Protected Oil Storage Tank

The 1200 Litre Plastic Bunded Fire Protected Oil tank is manufactured in an extremely durable plastic. The integral fire protection barrier protects the contents of the tank, providing a 30 or 60 minute fire rated barrier enabling tank installation adjacent to or even inside buildings. Designed to be neatly hidden away in narrow installations, this oil tank can hold up to 1200 litres (260 gallons) of heating oil. 

The integrally fire rated system meets the functional requirements of Building Regulations and can be installed and signed off under Competent Persons schemes such as APHC. With a fitted bund, the tank also provides protection against any leakage or spills.

Installation Requirements

Tuffa’s fire protected oil tanks serve as an alternative means of compliance when compared to traditional fire barriers. It is the responsibility of the Competent Person installing the tank, or the building inspector certifying the installation, to ensure a site-specific risk assessment has been conducted.  

30 minute fire protection   Enables the installation of an oil tank a minimum of 300mm from other buildings and structures. Where access is required (e.g. at the front of the tank to fill it) then a minimum distance of 600mm is required.  

60 minute fire protection   Enables the installation of an oil tank within a garage or other internal space where it is impractical to install the tank externally to the building. The tank must be installed in an uninhabitable area (e.g. a garage or outbuilding), at the lowest possible level in the building or structure. Additionally, the tank must be installed a minimum of 300mm from other internal walls and structures or 600mm where access is required
