- It’s cleaner: Today's Oilheat is a lot cleaner than it was 25 years ago. In fact, oil burner emissions rate at near zero levels.
- It’s efficient: Today, high efficiency fuel oil appliances operate in the 85% range. New ultra-modern furnaces in the 95% efficiency range are entering the market.
- It’s economical: Adjusted for inflation, the price of Today's Oilheat is virtually the same as it was in the 1950s.
- It’s safer: Today’s Oilheat is non-flammable, non-explosive and it poses a very low risk for carbon monoxide poisoning. So, rather than changing your energy, change your equipment to improve efficiency and produce immediate savings. 37,000 BTU/litre (British Thermal Units). So, with a direct oil-fired water heater, your water will heat up to twice as fast as with natural gas and up to five times faster than with electricity.

With an indirect-fired water heater or tankless coil inside the boiler, you won't be paying extra during the fall, winter and spring when the heat in your home is turned on. Combining the functions of space and water heating in one unit can lead to increased efficiencies in operation, thus saving you money. It may be time to upgrade to a new tank. Depending on the age and condition of your existing tank, upgrading may make sense. Today’s modern, leak-proof fuel-storage tanks are made from corrosion resistant materials and can last up to 50 years. They can be customized for hard to fit places inside or outside your home. More importantly, you’ll always have an adequate supply of heating oil on hand, which means you’re always in control. When it comes to furnaces,youhave several upgrade options:
