Heating oil delivery FAQs
If you are new to having a home that uses heating oil to keep it warm, you likely have questions about it and how to get heating oil delivered to your home. Bolkema Fuel is here to help with answers to some common questions about heating oil.
Q. How do I read my heating oil tank gauge?
A. Go to your heating oil tank and locate the tank gauge, which should be an easy tank. It will be a see-through cube made of plastic or glass, marked with numbers such as F, ¾, ½, and ¼ , which is similar to the gauge of your car’s gas tank. The amount of fuel left in the tank will be displayed by a red indicator or float. If you can see the float at the bottom or not at all, it means that your tank is either empty or almost empty. Contact us right away for an emergency delivery if this is the case.
In order to verify the proper functioning of the gauge, perform the following steps:
- Take off the outer casing of the gauge.
- Gently press down on the float.
- If the float goes back to its original position, then the gauge is working correctly.
- If the gauge is not working, please contact us to inform us about the issue.
Q. How do I know when to request a heating oil delivery?
A. Our Automatic Delivery service employs sophisticated software that determines when your heating oil should be delivered based on your previous usage and the current weather conditions. On the other hand, with Will-Call delivery, it’s your responsibility to keep an eye on your tank’s gauge and inform us when the oil level nears ¼. This will enable us to arrange a refill before you exhaust your heating oil supply.
Q. Is heating oil affordable?
A. Heating your home with oil is a cost-effective choice due to the high efficiency of modern oil-fired heating systems. Some models have an efficiency rating of over 95%. Additionally, using heating oil results in faster home warming compared to other energy sources.
