My oil boiler is 2009 vintage. Just been serviced. Had a new tank fitted by approved fitter. I notice that the bottom of the tank is roughly on the level of the boiler feed pipe. Then I notice in the Grant instal manual for a single pipe feed the tank should be 300mm min above the boiler feed. Will I get problems when the oil level gets low? Thanks.
 
Tank in same position as old one? Any issues in the last 14 years? Have you had the oil pump replaced a number of times in the last 14 years?
I wouldn't worry about it.
 
The only problem you may get is condensation/water under the oil being fed to the boiler, this has probably been addressed by your service engineer each year, If you are worried about it get a Tiger Flow and convert your pump to a two pipe system, only requires removal of a blanking plug and a new flexible connected the the Tiger Flow adjacent to the boiler.
