NB rules

What New Brunswick requires

  • Residential oil tanks are installed to CSA B139 by qualified oil burner mechanics.
  • Home insurers commonly ask for the tank's age and type at renewal and on a home sale. Your insurer sets its own limit, so ask before your renewal date.
  • When a tank comes out, the oil and sludge are pumped and the tank is cleaned and disposed of, and any abandoned fill and vent pipes are capped or removed.

FAQ

Oil tank questions from Moncton

How do I get my oil tank replaced in Moncton?

Send one request with your address and tank details. We pass it to licensed installers who cover Moncton and Westmorland County, and they contact you with a quote.

Do installers in Moncton remove old tanks after a heat pump install?

Yes. Removal is a common job: pumping out the leftover oil and sludge, taking the tank away, and sealing the old fill and vent pipes.

Will my home insurance cover an oil leak?

It depends on your policy and the tank. Many insurers ask for the tank's age and material at renewal and when a home is sold, and some decline or limit coverage on older steel tanks. Call your insurer and ask what they need from you before your renewal date.
