Oil

Here is the reality of using oil to heat your home. Most importantly, it is hands down one of the best ways to keep your house warm and toasty. Individuals who get cold very easily, and like to have a warm, comfortable feeling in their home should look towards heating oil as their heating option. Heating oil is one of the safest and most efficient ways to heat your home. Fuel oil is perhaps the most stable, reliable, combustible, and non-explosive fuel on the market. The high efficiency in heating oil is a result of a higher BTU content that is not found in an equal amount of electricity, propane, or natural gas.

Benefits of using Oil:

• Heating oil is safe - The safety track record for heating oil is almost unbelievable. Inhalation of fumes from the oil is not lethal, and it is non-explosive. This is not the case with fuels such as kerosene. Not to mention, heating oil systems will give you a warning that you have some sort of malfunction, such as an odor or smoke release before being in danger of a carbon monoxide release.
• Cozy & Warmer - If you are one of those individuals who like a warm & toasty home, than heating oil is most definitely the way you need to go. An oil based flame burns 300 degrees hotter than natural gas, and heats your home and other sources faster than any other fuel or gas available today. If you have been in a home that is heated by oil you will know this feeling, it is very comfortable.
• Using heating oil means more personal attention - As a heating oil customer for a full-service oil company, the technicians will know you and your heating needs. They will get to know the ins and outs of your system, the consistency of use, and will be there for you in case of any emergency or issue. A big gas utility company (such as those providing natural gas) will never get to know you or what your needs are, you are simply a number.
• Easy billing options - Most heating oil companies give customers several billing options, including budget plans, automatic delivery, will-call delivery, etc. Plus, you are getting billed per litre. There are no “terms”, or complicated “weather adjustments” as with several natural gas providers. Billing for heating oil is easy.
