New To The Heating With Oil Game..

[Jackbass]

What type of burner is it? You don't have to invest the water heater. Just know it costs a bit more to heat the water. with oil. Not sure on the time frame of ROI.

Having 8 cords drying is big I love wood stoves. I grew up feeding one. Such a warm heat but dry. We had forced hot air electric when I was a kid so if the stove was not running when my old man got home I caught hell. I can't imagine a ten year old now being responsible for stacking that much

Fore go contracts etc. I can't tell you how many times I have seen people lock in on high prices in the summer to watch the prices drop over the winter. Particularly in recent years. My Father in law watches it closely and has three tanks so he can fill for most of the season.

First off how old is the tank that is there now? Any guess?? If its more than 10 years old give yourself peace of mind, get rid of the 275 gallon tank that is there and instead of doubling up the tanks (which you don't want to do with an old tank that is already there) get rid of the existing tank and have a 330 gallon tank installed! There will be no benefit to filling 2 tanks totaling 550 gallons.....and who wants to buy all that oil at one time anyway?? Buy now.....its not going to get much lower with the coldest part of winter on the doorstep....it will start to climb very shortly!
