Heating oil is a petroleum product used to heat homes. It’s stored in tanks and is delivered by trucks to customers. When burned in a furnace, it produces heat that warms the air or water, which is then circulated throughout the home. Its price is influenced by crude oil costs, weather, and regional demand. In the U.S., the Northeast heavily relies on heating oil. It’s essential to maintain your heating system to ensure efficiency and safety.
With advances in biofuels, more eco-friendly heating oil options are now available. In fact, Brideau is proud to deliver Bioheat Plus® Fuel, which is a cleaner-burning oil that produces fewer emissions than standard heating oil. Domestically produced and safe for current home heating equipment, this fuel is a blend of ultra-low-sulfur heating oil and renewable biodiesel. As winter approaches, it’s wise to keep a more vigilant eye on your heating oil tank and order more heating oil well before you’re at risk for a run-out.
Ordering heating oil is a relatively straightforward process, but there are a few important steps to ensure you get the right product, price, and delivery service. Below are a few things to keep in mind.
Before ordering, check how much oil you have left in your tank. Many tanks have gauges, but if yours doesn’t, you can use a dipstick. Ordering in advance ensures you don’t run out of heating oil, especially during colder months when delivery times may be longer.
You have several options when it comes to choosing a supplier. However, Brideau Energy offers dependable, quality heating oil delivery in Central Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire.
Determine how much oil you need based on your tank size and current levels. Ordering a larger quantity may give you a better price per liter/gallon, but make sure you don’t overfill your tank.
To place your order, you’ll need to do the following:
