Written by Keller Heartt Collaborator | Mar 31, 2023 12:00:00 PM

An oil or other chemical leak is a messy and potentially expensive/dangerous problem for a business. Having a fluid storage system you can trust is a necessity. Many businesses invest in Roth double-wall storage tanks. If you’re considering one, here are the things to be aware of.

1. Roth’s Double-Wall Construction Is Unique

Roth’s double-wall design means the outer tank can contain at least 110% of the inner tank capacity, maximizing protection. The exterior tank is leak-proof, weld-free galvanized steel that incorporates a specialized oil- and fire-resistant seal. The interior tank is high-density polyurethane and will never corrode.

2. Roth Tanks Fill Quickly and Easily

The expansion system in the double-wall design virtually eliminates any spillage risk when handled by trained professionals. The removable base makes access easy. Both of these contribute to a tank that is quick and simple to fill and empty.

3. Roth Tanks Offer Several Size Options

Your tank will need to fit into the space you have available. Roth tanks range in size from 110 gallons to 400 gallons. Thanks to their efficient design, these tanks are also up to 50% lighter than comparable tanks made with 12-gauge steel.

4. Appropriate for Outdoor and Group Use

The non-corrosive steel filling system supports even fill levels throughout all tanks when installed in a group. Each individual tank comes with a cover optimized to extend its service life during outdoor use, even where the weather is harsh.

5. Safety Features for Consumer Interaction

Roth supports safety for professionals and consumers alike with an optical leak alarm that’s easy to see and understand at a glance. Roth also has a simple, easy-to-use consumer website where end users can get common questions answered fast.

6. Roth Tanks Last for Years

A Roth tank is an investment that will pay dividends for years. It is leak-proof, corrosion-proof, and rust-resistant both inside and out. When installed and used correctly, and inspected according to industry best practices, it has the potential to last 15 years.

Which Roth Double-Wall Oil Tank Is Right for You?

While there are five different sizes of Roth oil storage tanks in common use today, the 165 gallon tank weighing 135 pounds is the one most requested. You’ll also see the Roth double-wall tank called the “Roth DWT tank” or “Roth DWT oil tank.” All of these refer to the same product.
