How to Choose the Right Heating Oil Furnace

Residential heating oil furnaces are an efficient and reliable way to heat your home. The proper maintenance and upgrades can save you money on your energy bills while reducing your carbon footprint. The Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) provides resources and guidance to help homeowners make the most of their heating oil furnaces.

When choosing a heating oil furnace, there are several factors to consider. The size of the furnace should be based on the square footage of the home or building. The efficiency rating of the furnace, measured by the Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE), should also be considered. The higher the AFUE rating, the more efficient the furnace is. Other features include programmable thermostats, high-performance filters, and self-diagnostic systems.

One way to increase the efficiency of your heating oil furnace is to upgrade to a newer, more efficient model. According to FEMP, modern heating oil furnaces can have an Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating of up to 95%, which means that 95% of the fuel used by the furnace is converted into heat for your home. This is significantly higher than older furnace models, which may only have an AFUE rating of 60-70%.

When selecting a contractor to install the furnace, it’s essential to choose someone who is licensed, insured, and has a good reputation in the community. Ask for references and check online reviews before making a decision.

Additionally, FEMP suggests using a programmable thermostat, which allows you to s

How to Operate Your Heating Oil Furnace

Operating an oil furnace can initially seem intimidating, but with some knowledge and understanding, it’s pretty simple. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you confidently operate your oil furnace.

Step 1: Familiarize yourself with the furnace’s controls. Most oil furnaces have a thermostat, an on/off switch and a switch for the fan. Make sure you know where these controls are located and how they work.
Step 2: Check the oil level. Before turning on the furnace, ensure enough oil is in the tank. If the oil level is low, you need to call a professional to refill it.
Step 3: Turn the thermostat to the desired temperature. This will signal to the furnace that it needs to turn on.
Step 4: Turn on the furnace by switching the on/off switch to the “on” position. You should hear the furnace start up and circulate warm air throughout your home.
Step 5: Adjust the fan speed. Most oil furnaces have a switch that allows you to control the fan’s speed. A slower fan speed will circulate the warm air more slowly, while a higher speed will circulate it more quickly.
Step 6: Monitor the furnace’s operation. Check the thermostat to ensure the temperature stays at your desired setting. Listen for any strange noises or smells coming from the furnace. If you notice anything unusual, turn off the furnace and call a professional.
Step 7: Turn off the furnace. When you are done using the furnace, turn off the switch to the “off” position.

You’ll need to familiarize yourself with your oil heating system basics.

First, you must determine whether you have an oil furnace or a boiler.

How does your oil furnace work?
An oil furnace is a device that burns oil to heat air.

(A) The thermostat sends a signal to the controls on the burner.
(B) The fuel pump draws oil through a filter to the burner.
(C) The burner turns the oil into a fine spray, mixes it with air, and ignites it in the combustion chamber, causing the chamber to become very hot.
(D) Air absorbs heat in the heat exchanger.
(E) A blower sends this air through ducts to heat the home.
(F) The air eventually circulates back to the heat exchanger, and the cycle continues. (G) Combustion emissions are vented out the flue.
H) Hillside Oil Heating & Cooling is a full-service heating oil company. We deliver fuel to your home and can install, maintain, and repair oil (and natural gas, propane gas, and electric) heating systems in DE, MD, & PA.

Another type of oil heating system is a boiler. Instead of air, boilers heat up, circulating water pumped through pipes to radiators. Some oil heat systems also heat hot water.

How to Check Your Oil Levels

Checking your heating oil levels may seem daunting, but it’s pretty simple. By regularly monitoring your oil levels, you can ensure that your furnace never runs out of fuel and that you never have to pay for an emergency delivery.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you check your heating oil levels:

Step 1: Locate the oil tank. Your heating oil tank is typically located in the basement, garage, or outside your home. It will be a large, cylindrical tank with a gauge or dipstick on the side.

Step 2: Check the gauge or dipstick. Most tanks will have a gauge or dipstick that you can use to check the oil level. The meter will typically have a dial or a sliding indicator that shows the current oil level. The dipstick will have a marker or a line that indicates the oil level.

Step 3: Read the gauge or dipstick. Depending on the type of gauge or dipstick, you may need to read it in a specific way. For example, some meters have a dial showing the tank’s percentage of oil. In contrast, others have a sliding indicator that indicates the number of inches of oil in the tank. If you’re using a dipstick, you’ll need to remove it from the tank and wipe it clean before checking the oil level. The marker or line on the dipstick will indicate the oil level.

Step 4: Record the oil level. Once you’ve read the gauge or dipstick, note the oil level. You’ll want to check the oil level every few weeks to ensure you’re not running low on fuel.

Step 5: Order more oil if necessary. If the oil level is getting low, it’s time to order more. You can call your oil supplier and place an order for more fuel. Most suppliers will deliver the oil to your home and take care of your installation.

It would help if you only attempted to check or fill your heating oil tank with assistance. Oil tanks can be dangerous and should always be handled by a professional. In addition, as part of the safety protocol, you should always check for leaks or any signs of damage before checking the oil level. If you notice any leaks or damage, call a professional immediately.

By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your heating oil tank is always full and that your furnace never runs out of fuel. It’s a small step that can save you a lot of hassle and money in the long run.

You CAN run out of heating oil.
If you are coming from electric or natural gas heat, those are two sources that do not “run out.” However, the heating oil in your oil tank can and will run out if not replenished regularly. Consider automatic delivery to ensure this never happens, and you go without heat or cause damage to your heating system.

Tanks should never be empty. If your tank is less than a quarter full, you should order more oil as soon as possible. Running out of heating oil is worse than running out of gasoline in your car.

There are several ways to measure how much oil is in the tank. If you have an oil gauge, you need to read it, but if you don’t, you can use a dipstick or a rod to find out how many inches of oil you have, then consult a tank chart.

Remember: it’s best to be conservative and order your heating oil early rather than ordering in a no-heat emergency. What is the best way to manage this risk? Sign up for FREE Automatic Delivery and let Hillside Oil Heating and Cooling worry about managing your heating oil.

OUR HEATING OIL DELIVERY OPTIONS

AUTOMATIC DELIVERY

For customers who never want to worry about the fuel level in their tank, automatic delivery is available.

Hillside Oil uses a mathematical formula to determine when its customers’ oil tanks need refilling. The formula uses accumulated data from previous deliveries and local weather conditions to predict when future deliveries will be made. New accounts are based on a specific type of home similar to yours. The homeowner should cooperate with the scheduling of the first delivery. Heating oil deliveries may be made only if there is no outstanding balance on your account and no unsafe conditions related to filling, venting or tank problems exist at that time.

Would you like to know how automatic deliveries are calculated?

The degree-day system is the standard for calculating when deliveries are made in the industry. This link, www.weatherdatadepot.com, will help you understand how the degree-day system works and track your personal fuel oil consumption by comparing seasons from past years to see if you may need deliveries sooner than usual this winter.

• Monthly payments instead of large peak-season bills
• Automatically charge a checking account or credit card so your payment is never overlooked

Hillside offers a convenient monthly budget payment plan. Hillside’s program is simple; we estimate your total annual expenditures with our company and divide that among 12 monthly payments.

6. Restoration: The site must be restored to its original condition after cleaning it. This may involve replacing soil, planting vegetation, and taking other steps to correct the environment.

It’s important to note that different states have different regulations and requirements for cleaning up a heating oil leak, and it’s crucial to follow the specific guidelines established by your state. It’s also essential to consult with a professional, as they can advise on the best course of action and ensure that the cleanup is done correctly and safely.

The Importance of Furnace Maintenance

Heating oil furnace maintenance is essential to keeping your home warm and comfortable, and it’s crucial to stay on top of regular maintenance to ensure that your furnace runs efficiently and safely. According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), regular maintenance can help extend your furnace’s life, improve efficiency, and reduce the risk of breakdowns and costly repairs.

A critical aspect of heating oil furnace maintenance is an annual tune-up. During a tune-up, a certified and trained HVAC technician inspects and cleans your furnace, checking for potential problems and making necessary repairs. This helps ensure that your furnace is running at peak efficiency and helps to prevent breakdowns and costly repairs down the road.

Another critical maintenance aspect is regularly changing the oil filter, air filter, and nozzle. These parts can become clogged with debris, which can reduce the efficiency of your furnace and lead to increased maintenance costs. According to the DOE, changing the oil filter every year and the air filter every three months is recommended.

Additionally, keep an eye on your oil levels and ensure you never run out of fuel. Running out of power can cause damage to your furnace, and it’s essential to keep an eye on your oil levels to ensure that you always have enough fuel to keep your furnace running.

Finally, it’s essential to have your furnace inspected for leaks, corrosion, or any signs of damage. A leaking furnace can be a severe problem, not only because of the potential environmental damage but also because it can be a fire hazard.

Regular maintenance is essential to keeping your heating oil furnace running efficiently and safely. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, regular tune-ups, regularly changing the oil filter, air filter, and nozzle, monitoring the oil levels, and having the furnace inspected for leaks, corrosion, or any signs of damage, are crucial to preventing breakdowns and costly repairs in the future. In addition, by staying on top of regular maintenance, you can keep your home warm and comfortable and save money on energy costs in the long run.
