Warm and worry free with Automatic Delivery
Relax and enjoy the winter with our Automatic Delivery service. Our scheduling system keeps up with the weather and tracks your usage patterns to ensure that your tank has the appropriate amount of heating oil you will need all season long.
Our state-of-the-art automated delivery system is based on 'degree days'. A degree day is the average temperature of the day subtracted from 65. With this information, we assign specific consumption factors (K-factors) to you. These are based on your heating oil usage (for heat, or for heat and hot water), the size of your home, and your living habits. We can then accurately determine when you are due for your next delivery.
Is your household changing? If you choose Automatic Delivery, be sure to let us know of any significant changes in your living conditions which may affect your heating oil consumption. For example, you:
-
have a new baby and are keeping the heat higher and using more hot water for baths
-
installed an addition to your home and are now heating more area
-
are working from home more frequently
-
have new roomates, residents or elderly parents living with you
-
are away and set the heat at a temperature higher than normal
Automatic Delivery customers receive a $0.10 per gallon credit redeemable at the end of the heating season.
