Como Oil & Propane is a provider of residential, commercial, and Industrial heating fuels. We have nine offices throughout NE Minnesota and NW Wisconsin, and we dleiver heating oil and propane to over 22,000 customers. We also sell furnaces, water heaters, AC and grills. Cook & Douglas counties available.

"My 94 yo mother has been a customer of Como Oil for decades. She even pre pays for every home fuel oil fill. On 6-27-23 Como greatly overfilled the tank which is in a finished basement Where we live. Grade 2 Fuel oil spilled outside of the home and onto the foundation, and then it flooded the basement. The fumes were so intense we became very sick. I spoke with the Hibbing MN manager, who could have cared less what my elderly Mom was going through with the fuel oil spill inside her home!!! He told me it wasn’t his problem since it was inside the house. Don’t EVER do business with this company. We had a credit of over $3000 dollars at Como and they said it would take 6-8 weeks to CUT a refund check. Come on? What a pathetic response. They caused the toxic spill, my 94 yo mother did not cause it. They took advantage of her. We want everyone to know how little they care about their long term customers, and how they placed us at a high health and safety risk. The gas hot water tank pilot light was only 3 feet away from the liquid spilled fuel oil. I did not want to give Como even a 1 Star rating, they deserve a ZERO."

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts

If a geothermal heat pump is installed correctly, then you shouldn’t have to worry about having a backup heat source such as a furnace or oil boiler. However, there are geothermal systems installed that include a backup in case the heat pump fails due to extreme cold. This is simply a backup heat pump you’ll likely never need and not an alternative heat source.

You can expect a geothermal system to last for years. According to the Department of Energy, the underground infrastructure for the heat pumps lasts about 25 to 50 years, which includes the pipes buried in the soil. The actual heat pump itself has a life span of around 25 years.

HVAC systems usually last between 10 and 30 years, with most having a lifespan of around 20 years. Factors that impact a unit’s life expectancy include which brand you choose, how often you use it, and how well you maintain it. To make sure yours lasts as long as possible, make sure to keep it clean and schedule an annual service with an HVAC technician.

It’s a better use of energy (and your money) NOT to run an ERV system all the time. Most experts recommend that you cycle your ERV system on and off throughout the year. However, the recommended advice could change based on your climate, the number of people in your home, the size and style of your home, and your heating and cooling system.
