In late 2017 and the early parts of 2018, many local HVAC services in the Northeastern United States were inundated with a surge in heating oil delivery orders. This was in preparation for the predicted cold snap that froze a good chunk of the country for months. Imagine being trapped in the middle of such extreme weather events with your oil tank running low. You call your local delivery service and find out that they are fully booked and might not get to you until you’re well past empty.
You don’t have to live through drastic weather conditions all the time. All it takes is one and you’ll realize the importance of keeping your fuel tank topped up. In this post, our experts at Burch Oil will show you how automatic oil deliveries can save you a lot of headaches resulting from an empty tank.
Of course, the biggest advantage to signing up for automatic heating oil and delivery is convenience. Homeowners typically have to add checking their oil levels regularly throughout winter to their list of seasonal chores. Forgetting to do so can cause you to run out. With automatic oil delivery, you are never one forgotten check away from having no heat.
Winter is, unsurprisingly, the peak season for heating oil delivery services. Wait times for oil orders can take a lot of time, which is simply not feasible if you’re already running low. Thankfully, with automatic oil, you don’t have to wait on hold for hours just to place an order. You don’t even have to call to place an order.
The less heating oil you have in your tank, the more susceptible it is to corrosion and other problems. Keeping your tank full with automatic oil deliveries can save you a little bit of money from unexpected repairs and maintenance.

You made a good point that it's important to look for the shortest wait times when getting heating oil delivery services. I'd like to know more about that because I'm thinking about buying a new heater for my home. I think that will be necessary because I want to work on improving the energy efficiency of my home.
