Distinguish the heating unit from the tank in the proposal
Manorhaven’s Building Department lists oil and gas heating units and tanks among its work topics. The listing does not define what a particular contractor has agreed to replace.
State which heating unit is involved and whether the proposal retains an existing tank, includes a tank task or leaves its status unresolved. Use existing records and observations; do not inspect inside or disturb equipment to complete the enquiry.
Ask which tank task and record the quoted scope covers
Nassau County’s homeowner oil-tank resource separates above-ground or basement information from underground-tank information and links tank-closure and removal notification forms. Those are different reference routes, not a finding about the tank at your property.
Ask the appropriate provider to name the tank work it actually proposes, the performing party and the completion records included in that scope. Keep a heating-unit invoice attached to the unit work it describes. If tank work is excluded, make the remaining assessment or separate proposal explicit before treating the wider project as complete.
Does a heating-unit replacement quote establish that an old oil tank is removed?
Check the accepted scope. It must identify whether any tank work is included or excluded and what actual completion record would describe it. A heating-unit invoice or resource topic does not verify tank removal.
What should I say if I do not know whether the tank is above ground or underground?
Record that uncertainty alongside existing documents. Nassau County names separate above-ground/basement and underground information routes. Ask the appropriate professional what identification or assessment is needed, without searching for, opening or disturbing equipment.

For a rented home, confirm who can authorize alterations. In a shared building, ask about access and work rules. A citywide construction period does not establish the age, condition or safety requirements of an individual home; check the property records and the specific project.
