We have oil contractors that we use for our oil servicing; they are available 24-7-365 days a year. If you need your furnace cleaned or service, contact our office and we will contact one of our contractors for you.

In order to maintain efficiency, parts such as nozzle, oil line filter and air filters should be replaced regularly. Motors also need lubrication and controls should be maintained within the manufacturer’s specifications. An annual tune-up will help you avoid emergency repair calls.

part of our heat pump installation, Foster's will remove and dispose of the "old furnace" only. If you are changing out the existing old furnace, the home owner is responsible for having the existing oil tank drained and removed by a "licensed oil tank removal/disposal" company.

The reset button is usually located on the burner. It is generally a red button (as opposed to a switch) on top of a grey control box that may read Primary Control. In many cases the reset button is labeled. Have your Service Technician point it out to you at your next annual service.

No, a fuel odor is an indication that something is wrong and should be checked by a service technician.

Yes. Oil soot is extremely flammable and an oil furnace produces carbon monoxide. A bi-product of oil combustion is sulfur dioxide that turns into sulfuric acid when it encounters moisture. This acid erodes terra-cotta clay flue liners, causing gaps in the flue where fumes can escape into living space, or causing the flue liners to collapse and block the vent completely. Remember that most oil burners are only 75-80% efficient when new. This performance degrades after approximately 6-months.

Our technicians check all the safety controls. They check the pressure of the gas, oil and/or water pressure (depending on the type of heating system you have). The tech makes sure all moving components are lubricated and replaces the dust filters (and on oil furnaces they replace the nozzle and oil filters). They also check for carbon monoxide and run an efficiency test.

It depends. There are so many different oil furnaces that it's impossible to give anything more definitive than that. Our experience with home heating systems is limited, but our experience is that hoses are metal and don't need to be replaced, and there are no seals. A home heating system isn't an engine, which burns fuel to create energy (in the process creating heat). Home heating systems just burn fuel for heat. They're quite simple.

Yes, many of Foster's customers have added a heat pump to their existing oil, gas or electric furnace to cut heating expenses. You would then use your oil, gas or electric furnace as back-up heat, which in this climate, would be very infrequent. You could expect your oil bills to drop substantially.

Unfortunately, furnace oil prices are expected to remain high for some period of time. Issues involving seasonal and ongoing demand in distillate products (furnace oil and diesel products) may see prices remain high throughout this heating season.

Most replacement tanks are installed above ground. They are less likely to leak and any problems can easily be spotted with a periodic inspection. Above-ground tanks usually have a 275-gallon capacity and are installed either in the yard or basement. Most local governments require that above-ground tank installations comply with seismic codes to reduce the likelihood that the tank will tip and spill during an earthquake.

Answer: For routine maintenance and for improved bearing life a few drops of 20w non-detergent oil can be applied every 12 months.

For a 4-cylinder diesel truck, our standard oil service is $99.00. This includes oil change, filter, grease chassis, check fluids and lights, blow out air filer, and 21-point safety check. (Includes up to 14 quarts of oil) The same service for a 6-cylinder diesel truck is $119.00, (this includes up to 18 quarts of oil) For a 7.3 or power stroke diesel engine, this service is $99.00, and this includes one filter and up to 18 quarts of oil. Additional filters are priced on application.

You should have your heating system tuned up once a year by a professional. A properly-serviced system can pay for the price of the tune-up over the course of the heating season in fuel savings and also help prevent untimely breakdowns or other major problems.

The Hopewell Furnace property was purchased by the federal government on 1935 to become part of a "Recreation Demonstration Area" developed by the Work Projects Administration (WPA). Some restoration and development work was performed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) between 1935 and 1942. On August 3, 1938, a "core" historic area of the property was designated a National Historic Site.

Yes. Your furnace manufacturer, the gas inspector and Terasen Gas all strongly recommend an annual furnace service. An annual service will lower gas bills, extend equipment life, keep your home safe and improve system reliability resulting in fewer repairs. Believe me, yearly maintenance is much cheaper than repairs. And as an added incentive, there are no overtime charges for homeowners who put in the effort to keep their equipment maintained by having annual furnace services performed.

The Furnace refers to a Protoss versus Terran build that involves a series of drops (to hurt economy). The first drop consists of (1 goon + 2 zeal), the second (2 zeal + 1 reaver), and the third (1 reaver + 2 DT) or (2 zeals + 2 DT). It was designed as a counter to that back, jump-the-gap push terran likes to do in 6v9 on temple. Those numbers refer to your current supply at the time, and not the supply limit (which may be higher).

Improperly or weaken furnace seals are a common occurrence, especially in older homes that have not been inspected in many years. Review of your furnace is recommended by a professional home inspector as a cautionary measure to protect the inhabitants of the home from the possible mixing of combustion gases, such as carbon monoxide, with the circulating air in your home. One way this fatal mixture can occur is through small gaps at the base of the furnace.

We are a full-service oil dealership. A discount oil dealer may offer a less expensive price per gallon for heating oil, but customers sacrifice the safety and security of around the clock assistance, emergency delivery and service, service protection plans, convenient budget plans, automatic delivery, and other convenient services. Mohegan Oil, we view our customers – those who have been with us for decades and our new customers as well -- as “family” versus “a number”.
