Weather can wreak havoc on fueling stations. Thunderstorms, tropical storms, and hurricanes that cause flooding are real problems for petroleum dispensing facilities. If your operation has been affected by high water, Husky Corporation reminds you that proper inspection of hanging hardware is important to ensure everyone’s safety before returning to operation.
Fuel dispensing equipment that has been submerged during storms can become damaged. After the water recedes, it is important to thoroughly inspect the equipment to make sure it will operate safely. Any fueling site where equipment has been partially or entirely underwater should conduct thorough inspections.
For any equipment that remains in service, it is recommended to re-evaluate the equipment every month to inspect for any flood-related damage or corrosion that may have grown over time.
Please contact your Husky distributor if replacement equipment is needed. If you have questions or concerns about your equipment, please contact Husky’s Technical Service Engineer Paul Nilsen at (636) 825-7213 or pnilsen@husky.com. Husky Customer Service is also available for any questions you may have at (800)325-3558.
