Akron Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For Akron homes heating with fuel oil, choosing which of the 4 heating oil companies that serve Akron plays a big role in determining how much money is spent on heating each winter.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who want a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system select one of the 2 “full-service” oil companies that serve Akron. Full service companies such as Pautler Oil Service Inc or Drum Oil Inc offer families annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic oil delivery and furnace repair. With an automatic fuel oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s number two heating oil consumption and makes deliveries when your tank is running low. The family does not need to monitor the level of the oil tank or place individual orders.
Discount Oil Companies: Often called “COD Fuel” or “Cash Heating Oil” companies, discount oil companies are for customers who are on a budget. With discount oil companies, in return for better prices, you monitor the number two heating oil level in your tank, and you place an oil order when you're running low.
