No one wants to run out of heating oil in the middle of a cold Long Island winter. Sitting in a frigid house waiting for an oil delivery isn’t just uncomfortable – it can be dangerous – and expensive. Resorting to the use of space heaters or a fireplace can be a fire hazard, and those stop-gap measures may not prevent your pipes from freezing or bursting.
To ensure that your tank is never empty, we offer automatic oil deliveries that will keep you warm and safe all winter long. Auto-fill is available for both regular heating oil and for environmentally-friendly Bioheat® oil.
What Is Automatic Oil Delivery?
Automatic oil delivery is an agreement between a customer and a delivery service to fill the customer’s oil tank whenever the level drops below a certain point. The delivery company takes responsibility for monitoring the customer’s oil levels, ensuring they will never run out of heating oil for the duration of the contract.
Automated oil delivery is convenient and cost-effective. When you enter into an agreement with Tragar Home Services, your price is locked in and won’t increase in times of peak winter demand. You will also be eligible for priority service during these peak events. An added benefit is that having regular deliveries from our trained technicians may help identify potential safety or maintenance issues before they become serious problems.
How Do Oil Companies Know When to Deliver Oil?
With automatic oil delivery, we monitor your fuel tank levels and schedule service based on weather conditions, the type of system you have, your home’s energy efficiency, and your past usage. When your tank reaches one fourth of its capacity, a delivery is automatically scheduled. You don’t have to do anything, and your peace of mind is guaranteed.
How Long Does It Take to Deliver Oil?
It typically takes between 15-30 minutes to complete an oil delivery. If your oil tank’s fill pipe is accessible, then you may not even need to be present at the time of delivery.
