Learn the Facts about Heating Oil

The focus on energy efficient solutions and environmentally friendly options has caused advances in technology and science. Bioheat is heating oil blended with renewable, biodegradable organic biofuels to form a clean product that will reduce your carbon footprint. This domestically produced product works perfectly in existing oil burning systems.

Admiral Energy has been providing more environmentally friendly heating options, like bioheat. All of our number 2 heating oil is blended with a small percentage of biofuel for reduced carbon emissions and a cleaner burn.

What’s it made from?

Biofuel is often made from soybeans, recycled cooking oil, cotton, and sunflower seeds.

Does it require special equipment?

Your current oil heating system will work with bioheat without modifications. In fact, bioheat cleans and lubricates current equipment to help it run more efficiently.

Reduce your carbon footprint. Bioheat is bio-degradable, non-toxic, and nearly sulfur free.

How much cleaner is it?

Today’s number 2 heating oil is 95% cleaner than in 1970.

Gas Heat vs. Oil Heat

Compare Gas vs. Oil Heat

There is much debate regarding the benefits of natural gas compared to fuel oil as a heat source. There are many reasons you should choose heating oil as the best choice for your home or business:

Heating oil is safe and will only ignite using an advanced oil burning system.
With almost no sulfur, near zero emissions and no odors, heating oil is environmentally friendly.
You can choose your heating oil company instead of being reliant on a single natural gas provider.
Heating oil is more efficient than gas and the equipment will last 2-3 times longer if maintained.

Due to natural gas deregulation over the past few years, companies like Admiral Energy can buy and sell natural gas to our customers. Although gas is still delivered by your current gas company, such as National Grid, Admiral Energy acts as your broker to get you the most competitive rate and help you SAVE.

Simple Conservation Tips to Save Money

Sunshine! Windows on the south side of the house get the most sunlight. Eastern windows get sunlight in the morning. West facing windows receive sunlight in the afternoon. Open shades and drapes during the daytime to let the sun’s warmth enter your home, and close when the sun goes down.
Close your kitchen vent, fireplace damper, and closet doors when not in use.
Remove air conditioning window units or cover them well.
Keep radiators free of dust for top efficiency.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, homeowners can save as much as 10% a year on their heating and cooling bills by simply turning the thermostat back by 10 to 15 degrees.
Wrap your pipes to guard against heat loss and prevent them from freezing.
Avoid using space heaters. They’re expensive to operate, and can be dangerous, too.
Check your threshold for any gaps between it and the door. Use a bottom seal that can be attached to the bottom of the door — it should brush up against the floor to seal up the threshold. It virtually stops drafts.
Get a heating system tune-up – it’ll ensure you get maximum performance from every drop of heating oil burned.
Have good insulation on exterior walls , ceilings with cold spaces above, and floors with cold spaces below.
Change the windows. Consider new low-emissivity glass, which will decrease radiant
Upgrade your oil burner – a modern burner can cut costs by 15%.
