Remember:
• Protect fuel lines from being stepped on, kicked or bumped accidentally
• Protect fuel lines from vehicles, lawnmowers, getting caught by garden hoses or extension
cords, or children playing.
• Prevent fuel lines from coming into contact with corrosive material
• Ensure fuel lines buried in cement are inside secondary containment tubing or replaced
with above-ground lines, and the abandoned lines purged of oil
• Protect interior fuel lines from physical damage – especially if they run across the floor to
the burner. If possible, cover them with permanently secured protection plates
• Replace copper lines that are kinked
