Typically, residential property owners will replace the underground storage tank with a 275 or 330 gallon steel above ground storage, but due to exclusions in Homeowners’ Insurance policies, property owners may upgrade to a “Roth Tank”. A “Roth Tank” is an environmentally friendly storage tank that has a blow molded seamless inner tank of high-density polyethylene, which is absolutely leak proof and corrosion resistant.
The outer tank is made of galvanized steel, lock seamed and sealed with an oil and fire resistant seal. The outer tank protects the inner tank and offers secondary containment should the inner tank fail, holding 100% of the inner tanks’ volume. In addition to the tank, the manufacturer offers a Leak Protection warranty. To learn more on Roth tanks, visit their website by hitting the links tab.
