Bioheat Plus^® Fuel

We deliver Bioheat Plus fuel, which is keeping us on the road to a carbon-neutral future

Bioheat Plus fuel is a domestically produced fuel that’s the product of a blend of ultra-low-sulfur heating oil and renewable biodiesel. It’s available in different tiers, depending on how much biodiesel is blended in. The renewable biodiesel is made from organic and recycled products, including used cooking oils, inedible corn oil, soybean oil, canola, tallow, fats and algae.

You don’t need to make any changes to your current furnace, boiler or storage tank to use Bioheat fuel or Bioheat Plus® fuel, which is what Brideau delivers. In fact, the latest compact, highly efficient boilers and furnaces, which drastically increase fuel efficiency and reduce consumption, work especially well with Bioheat Plus fuel. This fuel is made with 5% to 20% biodiesel (B5 to B20).

Safety First

We know safety is a concern—as it should be! You can feel confident about the safety of Bioheat Plus fuel, as it is approved by ASTM International, which sets industry standards for fuels and lubricants.
