Home Heating Oil Conservation Tips

  • Sign Up for Automatic Delivery
    Skip the stress—our automated delivery system uses real-time weather tracking to schedule your oil fills, so you never run low unexpectedly.

  • Adjust Your Thermostat
    Lowering your thermostat by about 10 degrees for eight hours a day—while you’re at work or asleep—can lead to noticeable savings, potentially up to 10% on your heating costs.

  • Keep Heat Flowing Freely
    Make sure radiators and baseboards aren’t blocked by furniture, rugs, or curtains so warm air can move throughout your home easily.

  • Clean Vents and Registers
    Regularly vacuum your air vents and ensure they’re not obstructed to help your system work more efficiently.

  • Use Sunlight to Your Advantage
    Open blinds and curtains on south-facing windows during the day to let in natural heat, then close them at night to keep the warmth inside.

  • Seal and Insulate
    Add insulation to attics and basements, and seal up drafts around windows, doors, and outlets. Plastic window coverings are a great temporary fix, but if your windows are old or drafty, consider budgeting for replacements.
