Why Can I Smell Oil In My Home

There are many reasons why you may be able to smell oil in your home. If dangerous oil odors are ignored and you are exposed to these oil smells, the long term effects can be serious. The first step when you smell oil in your home is to contact Enviroleak immediately and from there we will firstly identify the cause of the smell. Here are a few of the most common reasons why we may smell oil in our Homes.

Oil Leak

A distinct odor of oil in your home can mean that there is an oil leak and identifying where this oil leak is and the cause of the oil leak is vital. Oil Leaks are often found near where your Oil Burner is and it is important that you check all the connecting points within your Oil Burner and identify where the leak is occuring. You may also find oil stains on your floor which is a result of an oil leak or spill.

Cracks in your Oil Burner

The importance of ensuring that there is no cracks in your oil burner when you can smell Oil or Fumes in your home cannot be stressed enough. If there is a crack in your home oil burner and it is ignored, the long term costs and health implications will be very serious. An Enviroleak expert can come to your home and identify the cause of the smell and take all the neccessary actions to protect you and your home. 

Ventilation Issues

It is normal for Oil to give off fumes after it is burned and this usually occurs deeply protected within your Oil Burner. If you smell fumes, this means something is wrong. The Oil Burner's venting system may be blocked or have developed tears in it. This means that instead of these hazardous fumes leaving your home, they enter back into it leading to serious health implications and may even mean that you have carbon dioxide leaking which can be lethal.
