Frequently Asked Questions and Answers

1. What types of underground tanks do you install?

We install a wide range of UL-2085 and UL-142 compliant underground storage tanks (USTs) including single and double-compartment configurations for gasoline, diesel, and alternative fuels. These are ideal for fueling stations, emergency generators, municipalities, and more.
 

2. How long does a typical underground tank installation take?

Project timelines vary based on size, permitting, and site conditions, but most installations are completed within 2 to 4 weeks from excavation to final inspection.
 

3. Do you handle permits and environmental compliance?

Yes. We manage the entire permitting process and ensure your installation complies with EPA, DEP, SPCC, and local regulations. Our team also handles testing, inspections, and documentation to keep you fully compliant.
 

4. What is the lifespan of a new underground tank?

Modern double-wall tanks have a lifespan of 30+ years when properly maintained. We use corrosion-resistant materials and offer options for leak detection and remote monitoring to further extend service life.
 

5. What site preparation is required before installation?

Our team conducts a site assessment, including soil analysis, utility locating, and access planning. We coordinate excavation, tank placement, backfill, and surface restoration, so you don’t have to manage multiple contractors.
 

6. Can I install both diesel and gasoline in one system?

Absolutely. We offer dual-compartment tanks that safely store multiple fuel types in a single footprint—helping you save space and simplify fueling operations.
 

7. What safety features are included in your installations?

Every installation includes spill containment, overfill protection, and leak detection per code. We also offer fireguard tanks, electronic monitoring systems, and automatic shutoff valves for enhanced safety.
 

8. What’s the difference between Fireguard and standard USTs?

UL-2085 Fireguard tanks offer an extra layer of fire protection, insulation, and impact resistance—making them ideal for high-risk or high-traffic environments like hospitals, marinas, and fuel depots.
 

9. Do you offer maintenance or service after installation?

Yes, we provide ongoing maintenance, testing, cleaning, fuel polishing, and emergency service to keep your system running safely and efficiently long after installation.

12. How often do I need to inspect the tank in the state of Florida?
In Florida, fuel tanks must be inspected annually by a certified professional. The inspection should include a visual inspection of the tank, as well as testing for leaks and other potential issues.

13. Should I install an aboveground or underground tank?
The decision to install an aboveground or underground fuel tank depends on several factors, including the location of the tank, the amount of space available, and any applicable regulations. Our team can help you determine which type of tank is best for your specific needs.
