What Is Domestic Heating Oil?

Domestic heating oil, also known as kerosene or BS 2869 Class C2 fuel, is the most common choice for households in Gloucestershire not connected to mains gas. It is valued for its clean burn and efficiency in central heating systems and boilers. Sometimes referred to as 28-second oil, paraffin, or standard kero, it remains one of the most cost-effective and dependable fuels for rural properties across the county.

Safe Storage & Regulations in Gloucestershire

Heating oil storage in Gloucestershire must meet strict UK regulations. For tanks under 3,500 litres, rules require durable construction, leak resistance, and bunding or secondary containment where needed. Fire safety standards also apply: tanks should be sited at least 1.8 m from windows, doors, flues, and boundaries, and placed on a solid base. These requirements, supported by Building Regulations and OFTEC guidance, protect both your property and the local environment.

We encourage customers across Gloucestershire to arrange routine tank inspections and servicing. Regular checks help prevent leaks, maintain efficiency, and ensure compliance with safety standards.

Tips for Heating Oil Customers in Gloucestershire

Plan ahead: Order heating oil before the winter rush to avoid delays and higher seasonal prices.
Maintain your tank: Routine cleaning and servicing reduce sludge build-up and improve heating performance.
Use trusted engineers: Always choose OFTEC-registered professionals for installation, servicing, or tank replacement.
