"Not happy or pleased with this business. We have been customers for over 4 years. Ever since day one when we bought our house, we could smell exhaust when the furnace ran. Not one technician (and we had many) could figure out what the smell was from even though they said it wasnâ t normal. No carbon dioxide was reading and the carbon monoxide detectors werenâ t going off. They said it was a throw away model. We have had this unit serviced by them numerous times. In December 2018, we had called them 4 times within 3 days (all after hours) it was trial and error trying to figure out why it wasnâ t running. One technician replaced multiple items and the next morning we still had trouble. After all that the one technician said it was ice in the tank with kerosene which was from them. Hmmm but they replaced many parts. Almost one month later we had another issue where the cad cell melted. The guy put down 2.5 hours and he wasnâ t even here 45 min. I know they tack on travel time but really?! Four days later it happened again so we called someone else. The minute this guy from another business walked in, he knew something wasnâ t right due to the exhaust smell. He tore it apart and it had a crack in the heat exchanger. Go figure! Not one technician(other than the guy who replaced the cad cell, whom suggested we have it tested for a draft, but couldnâ t do it cause he didnâ t have the right equipment with him) ever thought of this or had ever torn it apart to check in over 4 years. I still owe a bill to Petersburg Oil and it frustrates me cause all that work for nothing. I had to buy a new furnace and now no more smell. We could have saved thousands of dollars in 4 years if they would have figured this out from day one. Will never use them again. Lady on the phone was becoming very defensive and short when I was venting to her about the most recent bills"

Heating oil services FAQs

To buy heating oil for your house, contact local heating oil companies to compare prices and place an order once you decide on a supplier. The company will have to deliver your heating oil in a truck designed to carry and dispense heating oil safely. Call and order your heating oil early enough to have your oil delivered before you need to start using it for home heating.

On average, you’ll need about two gallons of oil per day to heat your house when it’s 50 degrees Fahrenheit outside. Most oil tank capacity is about 275 gallons, and heating your house with two gallons of oil per day will last about four and a half months. This consumption will vary depending on the climate and average temperature in your location. For example, if the winters are longer and colder where you live, you’ll probably need to refill your oil tank at least once to get through the winter.

You save money on heating oil in a few ways:

  • Make sure your home is well insulated and sealed against drafts and heat leakage.

  • Use a thermostat that’s working properly and calibrated accurately.

  • Increase energy efficiency by insulating your basement and attic.

  • Turn down your thermostat a few degrees.

  • Program your thermostat to lower the heat when you’re not home.

  • Order heating oil during the off-season when prices are likely to be lower.

Summer months tend to be when heating oil prices are lowest because of decreased demand. Buying heating oil during the off-season also prepares you for when the weather gets cold, and you need to start using the oil to heat your home. Although heating oil prices will fluctuate, it’s best to avoid purchasing between September and April, as that's the peak season for heating oil demand.

Overall, heating your home with an oil furnace tends to be less expensive than heating your home with an electric heating system. Oil heating systems stay warm for longer periods of time without drawing a constant electrical current to maintain a temperature. Plus, heating oil systems typically have a longer lifespan and lower price tag than their electrical counterparts, resulting in short- and long-term savings.
