We could go into the laws of physics and talk about how gasses have fewer molecules to burn compared to liquids, but that would take an entire book! If we boil that information down, the best option becomes clear: heating oil is far more efficient when it comes to heating compared to natural gas. Not only is it more efficient, but in our experience, it is safer for you and the environment!

When it comes to heating oil, you need to find a service to deliver to your home. The heating oil tank is usually outside the home where a service provider can hook up their vehicle and deposit the material. Most natural gas already has piping infrastructure in neighborhoods, but transportation services are also available. The major difference between gas and oil when it comes to cost is that oil is going to be more costly thanks to fluctuating prices and the need for cleaning and maintenance. But does that diminish the benefits?

As dictated by the governing bodies of this industry, the oil we provide requires a vaporization point of 140 degrees Fahrenheit. At that temperature, you decrease the dangers associated with natural gas: fumes, soot buildup, and carbon monoxide poisoning. From this information alone, it's obvious that heating oil is far safer than natural gas.

When it comes to safety, efficiency, and value, heating oil is the right choice for your home.
