Autumn 2025: The Right Time to Replace Your Old Oil Tank in Dublin & Across Leinster
After the roasting summer we’ve just had, many households around Dublin and Leinster are starting to get ready for the colder months. But before you order your next fill of heating oil, it’s worth taking a good look at your tank.
Hot weather in summer followed by sudden autumn temperature drops puts real pressure on older tanks. The constant expansion and contraction can cause fine cracks or weak spots, especially in plastic or old steel ones. Once you fill the tank for winter, that pressure can make things worse — sometimes leading to leaks or complete failure.
So if your tank’s looking a bit tired, autumn is the perfect time for oil tank replacement.

Why Autumn Is the Best Time to Act
Here’s why it makes sense to replace your oil tank now rather than wait:
In short — if your tank shows cracks, bulging sides, or any sign of oil smell around it, don’t risk a leak. A quick inspection now can save a lot of hassle later.
- The weather’s still mild, so base work and installation go smoothly.
- You can sort out relocation or replacement before winter rush and bad weather hit.
- You’ll avoid the panic and expense of a mid-winter leak or breakdown.
- Tank disposal can be done safely and properly while access is easier.
