All oil tanks contain some sediments and water. These can lead to plugged filters, nozzles, and strainers. When sediment has built up in a tank it will become agitated during an oil delivery and get sucked into fuel lines. Ultimately the clogging of lines and filters can lead to a shut down in the heating system.

To combat these issues the multi-function additive Avalux contains:

• A stabilizer that minimizes fuel degradation and sludge formation
• A dispersant that gradually dissolves sludge and disperses water
• A detergent that cleans the supply system to and from the tank
• A corrosion inhibitor that protects storage tanks from rust and corrosion, which lead to metal particles in the tank and ultimately to tank leaks
• A metal deactivator that prevents metal particles from causing chemical reactions

Fewer tank issues mean fewer heating problems and fewer service calls.

All Lamprey Brothers heating oil is treated with Avalux, reducing fuel-related service calls by up to 40%.
