most common problems with a heating system?
The most common problems with a heating system are venting, oil lines and old oil tanks. Unless a furnace has a cracked heat exchanger or other safety issues it will usually pass. The oil tank is usually the main issue as we must RECOMMEND it be replaced if it is older than 20 years, or the age cannot be proven. Only your insurance or your Oil Provider can force you to replace your tank if they feel it is a safety risk. We will only force the issue if your tank is found to be unsafe at the time of inspection, in which case the Technician would give notice in writing and attach a red tag to the fill pipe.
