In 1638 the New Haven Colony traded "eleven coats of trucking cloth and one coat of English cloth made in the English fashion" to the Mattabesec Indians for land known as Totokett (Tidal River). The first permanent settlement was established in 1644 when people from Wethersfield came to Totokett, later renamed Branford after the town of Brentford in Middlesex County, England….. Branford ct |

Picking a Qualified Service Technician
The technician should be able to provide proof of his Oil Heating License; law requires it.
This and other factors in determining his/her qualifications are discussed in my Special Report.
Smart controls: The latest in micro-processing technologies allows the system to automatically adjust itself to changing environmental requirements resulting in fewer on/off cycles. This reduces fuel consumption, wear on equipment, exhaust emissions and electrical usage by the system.
High-pressure flame retention burners: Hotter flames with less air and fuel required are evidence of improvements in the high-flow atomization and vaporizing technologies used in the newer burners today.
Safe: Fuel oil, in its natural liquid state, wont burn. It must be vaporized to ignite. It will not burn if a lit match is thrown into a puddle of it. By virtue of this quality, it cannot explode when exposed to a spark or flame. Also, heating oil fumes are not poison like natural gas.
Clean Burning: The average oil burning system emits 6 ounces of particulate emissions (soot) per year or roughly 1/8th of a pound of soot for every ton of fuel oil burned. That marks a 95% improvement over the last 25 years or so. There are no federal regulations on heating oil emissions.
If you heat with another source of energy or are building new, then you should be aware that heating oil is a viable option to meet your familys heating needs.
Heating oil technology has kept pace with the competition from other heating options and in some cases surpassed it. If you currently heat with oil, then it is a safe bet that it will continue to serve you well into the new century before us. |
