Thurston Energy's service personnel are highly knowledgeable in all facets of your home heating oil system. They will provide information and a free estimate for annual furnace tune-ups, non-emergency repairs, new equipment installation, and more. One approach to ensure that your system is always in peak condition and operating at peak efficiency is to order annual preventive maintenance. A properly maintained heating system consumes less oil and provides the best defense against mechanical failures. Thurston's highly educated technicians are responsible for providing top quality service. They also address any potential issues before they become costly repairs. They inspect your system to ensure it is operating at its full potential, saving you both money and fuel. During the annual tune-up, they replace all filters, strainers, and nozzles, check all the operating and safety controls, and make adjustments to your burner, if required. Follow these steps if your heating system fails: If the oil burner is unable to function, check to see that the switch for the oil burner is turned on. The thermostat should be set to read higher than the ambient temperature. Check to see whether or not there is oil in the tank. Only press the reset button on the relay once! If the burner isn't working, it may be because a fuse or circuit breaker has blown. If the burner continues to be inoperable or if you continue to require emergency service, please get in touch with the Thurston Energy office immediately.
For the upcoming oil season, Thurston Energy has introduced some interesting new changes. One of these improvements is the availability of new delivery and payment plans for the upcoming heating season. First is the Guaranteed Rate Plan: This choice allows you to "lock in" a specific rate for the season. You won't have to worry about changes in heating oil prices after you've locked in. You can lock in 30% to 80% of your anticipated consumption in 100-gallon increments, or 100% of your regular consumption—the choice is yours. You will not be required to prepay for the gallons you are committing to, and will continue to pay for them as they are delivered. Although there is a small price for this service, many oil consumers like it because it takes the guesswork out of budgeting. Second, the Variable Rate Plan: this option allows you to buy oil at their announced daily rate throughout the season. The price of oil fluctuates along with the crude oil market. The Variable Rate Plan is good if you are not concerned about market volatility. A third choice is Cap Rate Plan: with this plan, you will continue to get your deliveries at the listed rate on the day of delivery, unless the daily rate rises above your "cap" rate. In that case, you just pay the Cap Rate price per gallon. Regardless of the plan you select, you can rest assured that you'll get the same excellent service you've come to expect from Thurston.
A cost-benefit analysis shows that oil heat is still the best option for homeowners. While Thurston's same-day service is available at all hours if you run out of oil, Thurston recommends automatic delivery, so you never have to worry about running out. Their minimum will-call delivery is 150 gallons. With Automatic Delivery, their cutting-edge computer system tracks your heating needs and the weather forecast in real-time, ensuring you always have heating oil, even throughout extreme weather conditions. Please remember to plan ahead for delivery if you are a will-call customer. The severity of the weather and the potential danger of road closure should be factored into your order timing.
