Heating Oil Delivery FAQs
What is heating oil?
Heating oil, known as oil, fuel oil, home heating oil, and HHO, is a low-viscosity liquid petroleum fuel product that is refined and used as a heat source.
Is home heating oil safe?
Yes, heating oil is a safe and non-explosive fuel source. Its high flash point of 140 degrees Fahrenheit makes it fire-resistant, but if a system malfunction were to occur, its visible warning signs, like smoke, help keep you safe by showing you there is a problem.
How do you read an oil tank gauge?
Read a tank gauge just like your car’s gas gauge: Full, ¾, ½, ¼, and Empty. You can find the small circular glass or plastic gauge on the top or side of your oil tank.
When should I refill my tank with heating oil?
If you’re not enrolled in our automatic delivery service and you’re monitoring your own levels of home heating oil, please request a delivery when your tank is no lower than ¼ full.
What is automatic delivery?
Automatic delivery is a FREE service we offer to our customers who don’t want to worry about keeping track of when to order oil. With this service, we monitor your tank levels and refill your tank automatically when it’s time.
