The presence of excessive water in your UST can cause problems not only to your customer’s car, but also to your tank itself. Corrosion and microbial growth are only a few of the risks.

With that in mind, a few ways to prevent water from entering your UST include: 

• Removing standing water, ice, or snow from around tank fill covers
• Verifying that tank vents have rain caps
• Avoiding prolonged periods of low tank volume to minimize water formed by condensation.
