If your tank is over 20 years old, replacement is typically recommended. Signs that indicate your tank may need replacing include oily wet stains underneath the tank, black droplet buildup, or moisture around piping or tank seams. In cases of active leaks, immediate replacement is necessary for safety and environmental protection.
