Safety:
Gas, Wood Burning Stoves, Fireplaces, and Electric
Heaters, all present safety hazards and must be continuously
monitored. If safety is one of your concerns oil heat
is a proven winner and is One of the Safest
Means to Heat Your Home.
Cost:
Heating oil prices have remained relatively low
as compared with alternative fuels (electricity, natural
gas), and will continue to be a cost effective way to
heat your home. A study conducted by the Consumer Energy
Council showed that for 98 out of 100 homes oil-heated
homes conversion to gas doesn't pay. And in many cases
natural gas is more expensive.
Efficiency:
Did you know that
some of today's oil heaters can heat at up to 85% efficiency,
producing a hotter flame than gas and running 15% more
efficiently than a comparable gas heater. Plus oil heaters
run at nearly zero levels of smoke and soot emissions
making them one of the cleanest combustion sources in
the U.S. (Call us to see how you can take advantage
of these great numbers)
