Compliance Certification

Best fuel storage practices tell us that users should regularly check their fuel and storage tanks. But even when you adhere to these recommendations, you cannot tell whether your fuel is still in “good” condition or if you are efficiently avoiding problems in fuel storage. You need better information on what your fuel condition means and what you might need to do to predict the future. This is not only to safeguard your equipment and engine systems but also to be in compliance with the standards and regulations.


Universal Fuel Polishing & Tank Services aims to help its clients manage the fact that the quality of fuel has dramatically declined since the mid-2000s. This poses a challenge to many organizations that are required to adhere to the fuel standards set by local, state, or national agencies. We offer a complete suite of fuel testing, polishing, reporting, and compliance certification services so that our clients can safely overcome the hurdles of relying on stored fuel.


That is why we are the most trusted in diesel tank cleaning and fuel maintenance throughout the Rocky Mountain Region. We use proprietary equipment, specialized skills, and years of knowledge and experience.

Our goal is to help you cut through any uncertainty that your fuel might not be good. We also give you a clear picture of your fuel’s health and how it’s likely to hold up in the future.

Why Fuel Tank Maintenance is Crucial?

Maintaining the quality of your stored fuel tank is vital so that it’s useful when it’s needed. Your organization should ensure that the fuel you store does not go “bad,” or else your investment goes to waste. In addition, maintaining “high quality stored fuel” prevents any damage to your emergency power system, car, or equipment. That is why keeping your diesel fuel tank well-maintained ensures optimal performance while it prevents any costly damage to your equipment.

Fuel polishing is a process that involves removing water, debris, and other contaminants from diesel fuel to ensure that it meets the required specifications for use in emergency generators. Healthcare centers and hospitals rely heavily on backup power to ensure that critical medical equipment and services remain operational in the event of a power outage. Therefore, fuel polishing is essential to ensure that the fuel supply for emergency generators is clean and reliable. ASTM D975 is a standard specification for diesel fuel oils used in various types of diesel engines. This standard provides requirements for fuel properties such as viscosity, flash point, and sulfur content. It also specifies maximum limits for contaminants such as water and particulate matter. Compliance with this standard is essential to ensure that diesel fuel used in emergency generators meets the necessary quality and performance requirements. Contaminated fuel can cause significant problems for emergency generators. Water and particulate matter can clog fuel filters, leading to engine failure. Additionally, microbial growth can occur in fuel tanks, causing further contamination and potentially damaging the fuel system. Fuel polishing involves removing contaminants from the fuel supply by circulating it through a filtration system. The process typically involves several stages of filtration, including coarse filters to remove large particles and water separators to remove water. Finally, fine filters are used to remove smaller particles and ensure that the fuel meets the required specifications. For health care centers and hospitals, it is important to ensure that fuel polishing is carried out regularly and that fuel is tested for compliance with ASTM D975. Regular fuel testing can identify any contaminants or quality issues early on, allowing corrective action to be taken before an emergency situation arises. In conclusion, fuel polishing is an essential process for health care centers and hospitals to safeguard their emergency generators. Compliance with ASTM D975 ensures that diesel fuel used in emergency generators meets the necessary quality and performance requirements. Regular fuel testing and maintenance can help identify and address potential issues before they become critical problems. By taking these steps, health care centers and hospitals can ensure that their backup power systems remain reliable and operational in the event of a power outage.

Data centers are crucial for the functioning of our digital world. They store, process, and distribute the vast amounts of data that we rely on every day. However, these facilities are only as reliable as the equipment they use, and the fuel that powers that equipment. Fuel quality is an essential aspect of data center operation, and fuel polishing is a critical component of ensuring that fuel remains clean and usable.
