There are multiple different options when it comes to how you can heat your home. One of those options is to use natural gas. Another is to use heating oil.
Heating oil is the more efficient option. Let’s take a look at why.
We can all appreciate something that works better while not working as hard. In a way, that’s how heating oil works. Heating oil burns about 300 degrees hotter than natural gas, which means that any furnace that is fueled by oil is highly efficient. When you use oil, your home gets hotter faster than it would if you were using natural gas.
Bioheat® fuel takes regular heating fuel to a higher level. It is a combination of biodiesel and ultra-low sulfur heating oil. It is a highly efficient fuel that will last longer than your standard heating oil and it will add to the longevity of your heating system. Plus, it is a clean burning fuel that is good for the environment.
When trying to determine how efficient heating oil is, it’s important to look at the AFUE (annual fuel utilization efficiency), which is used to determine how efficient furnaces, boilers and water heaters are. A higher AFUE rating speaks to the efficiency of a piece of heating equipment. Every heating unit should have an AFUE number, which indicates how much of your equipment’s fuel is actually put toward creating heat. This allows you to see how much energy simply goes to waste.
