Your Heating Oil, Protected.
TankAlarm is a self-contained, solar-powered theft alarm for domestic oil tanks. Instant deterrent. No subscriptions. No wiring. Just peace of mind.
THE PROBLEM
Heating Oil Theft Is Costing Rural Homeowners Millions.
Over £3 million worth of heating oil is stolen across the UK every year. Most homeowners don't know it's happened until they try to turn their heating on and the tank is dry. It takes as little as five minutes to siphon hundreds of litres from an unprotected tank — and over 80% of thefts go completely undetected. TankAlarm exists to change that.
INSTANT DETERRENT
Loud. Immediate. Unmissable.
TankAlarm uses an ultrasonic sensor to continuously monitor your oil level. The moment it detects a rapid drop - the kind caused by siphoning, not normal usage - it triggers a loud on-unit siren immediately.
No WiFi needed. No phone signal required. No delay. The siren is the deterrent - and it works whether you're home or not.
PEACE OF MIND
Sleep Easy. Tank Alarm Doesn't.
Once armed, TankAlarm monitors your oil level around the clock — day and night, rain or shine. There's nothing to check, nothing to charge, nothing to remember. It just works, quietly, until it needs to be loud. You'll forget it's there. That's the point.
Oil theft is closer than you think.
£3million+
The estimated annual cost of heating oil theft across the UK. Rural homes are the primary target.
5 Minutes
That's all it takes to siphon hundreds of litres from an unprotected tank. Most thefts happen between midnight and 5am.
80% Undetected
The vast majority of oil thefts aren't discovered until the homeowner tries to turn their heating on and the tank is empty.
Rising Prices, Rising Theft
As oil prices climb, so does the incentive to steal. Rural areas such as Suffolk, Norfolk are consistently among the worst-hit areas.
No Insurance Payout
Many home insurance policies don't cover heating oil theft, or require evidence of forced entry — which siphoning doesn't leave.
