Veeder-Root UL Compliance Alert

Non-OEM components can void UL approvals and put your fueling sites at risk.
Review the guidance below and request a compliance review.

What’s the Issue?

For over 50 years, Veeder-Root has led the way in environmental compliance for fueling stations.
Their Automatic Tank Gauges and leak detection systems are UL-certified
only in their original manufactured form.

Veeder-Root has clarified that:

  • UL does not recognize remanufactured, rebuilt, or third-party “Simple Apparatus” components.
  • Any non-OEM parts used to repair or modify Veeder-Root ATG systems can void UL system approvals.
  • Third-party certifications do not replace or override Veeder-Root’s UL certifications.

If your systems have been repaired or upgraded with non-OEM components, your site could already be at risk.


Why This Matters to You

Using third-party or remanufactured parts may result in:

  • Loss of UL system approvals
  • Failed inspections and notices of violation
  • Inaccurate or unreliable leak detection
  • Sites falling out of federal and state environmental compliance
  • Exposure to fines, enforcement, and liability

Federal and state regulations require release detection systems to be installed and calibrated
according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Veeder-Root does not permit any third-party, rebuilt, or remanufactured components in their certified systems.
