Navigating Tight Spaces & Garden Boundaries

While traditional advice often pairs tank capacity strictly with the number of bedrooms in a property, we understand that modern homeowners often prioritise saving valuable outdoor space. Our slimline plastic and steel bunded ranges are specifically engineered with ultra-narrow, compact footprints to easily pass through standard pedestrian gates and squeeze into tight garden boundaries or restricted side alleys without sacrificing fuel security.

Why Upgrading to a Bunded Tank Matters

If your property still relies on an old single-skin tank, it may be a ticking financial liability. Environmental guidelines and most home insurance policies heavily favour—or actively require—bunded (twin-walled) tanks to prevent catastrophic leaks. A Tuffa bunded tank acts as a tank-within-a-tank, ensuring that even if the internal wall suffers damage, the secondary containment holds 110% of the capacity safely.

Domestic Fire Protection Solutions

Installing a standard heating oil tank close to a domestic dwelling, a boundary wall, or a clear window typically requires the installation of a bulky, unsightly external firewall to comply with building regulations. Tuffa’s innovative FirePro® range integrates fire protection directly into the tank’s structure. This self-contained, space-saving solution allows you to install the tank much closer to your home while maintaining full regulatory compliance and a clean garden aesthetic.
