Connecticut Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For Connecticut homeowners heating with heating oil, selecting which of the 454 heating oil companies that serve Connecticut makes a big difference.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who can afford a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system select one of the 267 “full-service” oil companies that serve Connecticut. Full service companies such as Ed's Garage Inc or HYBRID SERVICES LLC. offer households annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic heating oil delivery and heating system repair. With an automatic fuel oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s fuel oil consumption and makes deliveries when your tank is running low. The household 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 budget-conscious. With discount oil companies, in exchange for lower prices, you monitor the oil level in your tank, and you place an oil order when the oil gauge dips below a quarter tank. A few of the 2 Connecticut cash heating oil companies serving Connecticut include 1St Choice Fuel LLC and Sanoco.

Short Term Trends
Connecticut’s overall fuel oil consumption fluctuates from year to year primarily depending on how cold each winter is. As the temperature outside drops, homes’ boilers need to burn increasing amounts of oil to maintain a constant interior temperature. Last winter, the average outside temperature in Connecticut was 30.6°F, which was 4.6°F colder than the prior winter's average outside temperature.
