    Did a search in the forum but could not find anything on this.

    Looking for recommendations for a rectangular domestic oil tank, about 900 liters,
    Prices I have got so far are
    Platinum 950, €325
    Carbery 900, €420

    Would the Platinum be okay or should I go for the Carbery or maybe something else. I might get a oil gauge as well so I dont know if that makes a difference.

    I have a Carbery Compact R, nominal capacity 930 litres. First fill was 864 Litres with 100 litre ullage. Its quite compact, 1750x670x1060 mm (LxWxH) which is nearly 300 mm lower than my previous one. There is no access for a oil gauge but it has a unobstructed view right to the bottom through the filling point and 1mm is exactly 1 litre of oil.
    I purchased mine from my local (Cork) supplier for €280 (delivered) in August 2017.

    more like the price john says above 420 is crazy money

    when you purchase the tank ask them to take back the older 1 as not easy to get rid of later

    My supplier also took away my tank....they just came with the new tank strapped on the back of the oil delivery truck and went away with the old one.
    Don't know if I can post my supplier but if not can PM you if you wish.

    Just saw edit now so no need?.
