My husband did this. I
couldn't say for sure
how he did it, but the line goes from tank to a capped off pipe to pour
the fuel oil in.
This was done with pvc pipe and it is about 7' from the ground up,


The opening of the pipe is 7 feet above the ground? What am I
missing?


That many drivers would have to bring a stepladder to hook on, reach the
fill lever and listen to the tank whistle. Given the picture that I
visualize the driver probably has to park on the driveway to have enough
hose to pull around the house.
