(a)
An unenclosed supply tank larger than 10 gallons shall be placed not less than
5 feet horizontally from any fire or flame either in or external to the
appliance being served by the tank.
(b) A supply tank located above the lowest
story, cellar or basement shall not exceed 60 gallons capacity, and the total
capacity of tanks so located shall not exceed 60 gallons.
(c) Except as set forth in subsection (d), a
supply tank shall not be larger than 660 gallons. Not more than one 660 gallon
tank or two tanks of aggregate capacity of 660 gallons or less shall be
connected to one oil-burning appliance, and the aggregate capacity of such
tanks installed in the lowest cellar or basement of a building shall not exceed
1,320 gallons. Such tanks may be installed outside aboveground adjacent to
buildings, provided the distance to the line of adjoining property is not less
than that required by §
14a.1 (relating to relative
location to property) and tanks shall be suitably protected from physical
damage incident to outside use. Outside supply tanks may be equipped with an
approved manually operated dispensing device that takes suction through the top
of the tank for the purposes of dispensing fuel for use in supplemental heating
devices which use identical fuels as that stored in the supply tank. Domestic
use of beneath building tanks or of inside storage tanks or containers
(including drums) that exceed the requirements of §
14a.44 (relating to manner and
limitation of storage) is prohibited.
(d) Tanks exceeding 660 gallons individual
capacity or 1,320 gallons aggregate capacity in an individual building or in a
section of a building separated by fire walls shall be installed in an
enclosure constructed in a manner approved by the fire marshal.
