WHY THIS
EXISTS

"I created this tool because I know how frustrating it is to sit down with a stack of downloaded PDFs without knowing exactly what to focus on. I have personally taken the MDE certification exam 5 or 6 times and am intimately familiar with what's on it. I was both an MDE Certified Inspector and Technician. I personally went through every source document and made sure that what is actually on the exam is in this tool."
— Trae, Founder · 30+ Years in the Fueling Equipment Industry
The Real Cost Comparison

A 2–3 day certification course runs $450–$800 and still doesn't give you the actual questions and answers. This would have saved a lot of time and money — including the couple of times I failed. A subscription to FuelCert Solutions costs a fraction of that and puts the exact material right in your hands.

🎯
The Only Tool Your New Hires Need
This is the only thing you need to give new hires to get them certified. It replaces those multi-day courses that don't even give you the actual questions — at a fraction of the price.
📄
Every Question Is Sourced
Every practice question includes the exact source document and section it came from. You always know why an answer is correct — not just that it is.
🤖
AI Trained on the Actual Documents
The AI Tutor is trained on COMAR 26.10, the Inspector Handbook, PEI RP100, PEI RP1200, API 1604, API 1615, and every other exam source — not the open internet.

BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO
PUT TANKS IN THE GROUND

FuelCert comes out of real installs, not a classroom. These are the kinds of jobs the exam is about — and the work our crews do every week.

WHO IT'S FOR

  • Study Mode and timed Exam Mode for every certification class
  • AI Tutor explains every wrong answer with source citations
  • Flashcards covering key codes, values, and procedures

Field Techs & Installers

On a job site and need to verify a testing procedure, backfill specification, or overfill device requirement? Get a precise answer in seconds — not buried in a binder in the truck.

  • Instant lookup across PEI RP100, RP1200, API RPs, and state regs
  • Testing values, pressure tolerances, and pass/fail criteria on demand
  • AI Tutor trained on manufacturer manuals and recommended practices
  • Audio flashcards add-on: study hands-free in the truck between sites
  • Runs on your phone — installable PWA, no app store needed
  • State-specific rules when they apply, industry standards when they don't
📊

Compliance Officers

Planning a UST remodel, upgrade, or closure? Know exactly what the current state regulations require before committing to a design, budget, or project timeline.

  • Plain-English answers on state-specific upgrade and repair requirements
  • Verify corrosion protection, secondary containment, and ATG rules
  • Compare what's currently installed against what regulations require
  • Separate state modules — no cross-contamination of state rules
  • Content updated each regulatory cycle — no stale printed references
Simple by Design

HOW IT WORKS

Six tools. One workflow. Built around how people actually study and work in the field.

🃏
Start with Flashcards
The best place to begin. Quick, focused, and built from the exact material on the exam. Flip through until the answers feel automatic.
📝
Practice Quiz
Questions drawn randomly from the full pool. After each answer you see the correct answer, explanation, and exact source reference.
🎯
Timed Exam
75 questions, 90 minutes, 90% to pass — mirrors the real MDE test. Keep at it until you're hitting 90% consistently before you schedule.
🔍
Document Filter
Drill a specific source document. Solid on COMAR 26.10 but weak on PEI RP100? Filter to just RP100 and focus there. One of the most powerful features.
🤖
AI Tutor
Ask anything about the source documents. Use it to study, use it in the field, use it to plan — every answer is sourced, never guessed.
🎧
Listen on the Road
Add Audio Flashcards and your whole deck plays like a podcast. Question, a pause to answer, then the answer — while you drive from site to site.
💡 Pro tip: This tool is the only thing you need to give new hires to get them certified. It replaces those multi-day courses that don't even give you the actual questions — and costs a fraction of the price.
New · Audio Flashcards Add-On

STUDY IN THE TRUCK.
PASS ON TEST DAY.

Techs spend hours a week driving between job sites. Audio Flashcards turns that windshield time into study time — no reading, no screen, no extra hours at night.

  • 1Every flashcard, read aloud. The full deck for your exam, including the Numbers & Timeframes cards — the pressures, depths, distances, and deadlines people miss.
  • 2Hands-free drill format. You hear the question, get a pause to answer out loud, then hear the correct answer. Repetition that actually sticks.
  • 3Your exam only. Separate audio for Technician, Remover, and Inspector — pick your exam and that's all you hear.
  • 4Plays with the screen locked. Short sections you can finish between stops, with speed control and lock-screen controls.

🔒
Compliance Decisions
What secondary containment, overfill protection, or cathodic protection is required under current state rules — before you order equipment.
📁

▸ Field Query
"What is the maximum allowable pressure loss for a fiberglass piping system test per PEI RP1200?"
Per PEI RP1200-19 Section 5.4.2: For pressurized fiberglass piping tested at 1.5× MOP, the system must hold for 30 minutes with zero pressure drop to pass. Any measurable loss is a failure and requires leak investigation before backfill.
Source: PEI/RP1200-19 · Section 5.4.2 · Tightness Testing
▸ Field Query
"WV WVDEP — what is the minimum passing score for a Class C Tester exam?"
West Virginia DEP requires a minimum score of 80% to pass any UST certification examination, including Class C (Tester). Candidates scoring below 80% must retake the full exam.
Source: WV UST Certification Program · Class C Study Guide
▸ Field Query
"Maryland — what does COMAR 26.10 require for spill bucket testing frequency?"
Under COMAR 26.10.07, spill prevention equipment must be tested at installation and at least once every 3 years thereafter, or annually if the containment sump does not have a liquid-tight design verified by a third party.
