Any Decent Plumbers From Ballyclare or Close by Oil feed line not supplying boiler

[David Buckley]

Hi guys As said I am from Ballyclare N ireland I see a few posters on here from here I took a couple of pics. My boiler is not firing after getting a load of oil, i got 300 litres of oil from lisburn fuels dont worry i always stay watch them filling tank and no its in.

But my problem appears to be the feed line from the boiler to boiler house when we took off the feed line a friend help who new a bit we noticed their no oil gushing out at the boiler end. We did same at the tank end and agian it was fine and oil gushed out was a bit of dirt in the vavle of the tank. So i think thier is some obstruction in the feed line are their any you guys close to Ballyclare or. I persume it would be just an obsctruction as if it was a gravity problem oil would not have gushed out of tank we we took valve off.

Hi David. If you have any valves on the oil line - you should have a proper fire valve fitted somewhere, then it will block with the slightest bit of dirt. No dirt should be allowed into the oil line and a paper element oil filter should always be fitted at oil tank IMO. The clear tube sight gauges on oil tank can shrink and let rain water in also.
I am nearby to you. Great place Ballyclare.
