Hi everyone, Not sure whether its too late for the tank in question, but there's a new option available for tank replacement. I work for a company called ZCL Composites. We make (among other things) fiberglass reinforced home heating oil tanks that can be installed indoors (typically in basement) our outside. These fiberglass tanks use new technology and include leak-monitoring. They're fully insurable and have long-term warranties and reduced cost, comparatively. www.zcl.com or a Maritimes company distributing the tanks www.tankxperts.com for information. Hope its useful!
