Oil tank isolation valve on or off

I have moved into a new property and am unsure if the shut off valve lever on the oil tank is in the CLOSED or OPEN position. Otherwise known as a service valve which shuts off the oil supply from the tank. It's important you know what type of oil storage tank and pipework.

Emergency boiler information – How to isolate your fuel tank, restart your boiler. If you have this type of valve on your fuel tank, then to turn OFF, turn the wheel . I am trying to understand which way do I turn the valve off.

The valve seems to only turn one way the other way just turns the knob off of the . It does not have a shut off arm but has a round knob at the end. How do we know if the OSV valve is open or closed? Sometimes we find a common stop valve on the oil line at the oil tank and a fusible-link safety valve just . This one covers how the oil tank safety shut off valve works. This video is part of the heating and cooling.


Make sure you know how to isolate the tank's oil supply to quickly shut off the flow in the event of a problem. You will usually spot the isolation valve.
