The average low temperature in January here in Manchester is 10 degrees. And you know well that it can get much colder outside of town, and during cold snaps. Manchester’s record low is -28 degrees!
If you live or work in a mobile home, or in a home or building that has no basement, your heating fuel tank needs to be outdoors. Temperatures like those we get here create a big problem with No. 2 heating oil, which is the most common heating oil, when it’s stored outdoors. That problem is gelling, which is when heating oil thickens in the cold. Gelled heating oil can reduce or even block the flow of heating oil to your heating system. That could cause your heating system to shut down, leaving your home cold and you with emergency repairs—and the bills that go with those.
But kerosene doesn’t gel no matter how cold it gets. So it will always be able to heat your home or business. Customers also like kerosene because it can fuel stoves for cooking and lamps for lighting as well.
You’d be surprised how many businesses, institutions and municipalities depend on diesel fuels.
