North Carolina Oilheat Is Clean
North Carolina homeowners and their communities deserve a heating source that’s clean both inside and out, and Oilheat definitely fits the bill. Plus, thanks to advancements like ultra-low sulfur heating oil, Oilheat is now cleaner than ever. Here’s how:
Oilheat burns cleanly. Today's Oilheat burns 95 percent cleaner than in 1970. Low sulfur products and renewable biofuels, such as those made from soy beans, reduce Oilheat’s already near-zero emissions even further.
Ultra-low sulfur heating oil contains just 15 parts per million (ppm) sulfur. This cleaner blend not only reduces your heating system’s emissions, but also helps improve your system’s overall performance.
Oilheat already produces such a negligible amount of emissions that it isn’t even regulated by the Federal Clean Air Act.
Oil storage tanks pose no threat to North Carolina communities, because Oilheat is non-toxic, non-carcinogenic and biodegradable. In fact, over 175,000 North Carolina homes enjoy the clean comfort of Oilheat.
