You may need additive if you get excessive sludge buildup in your heating oil tank. Condensation in your oil tank accumulates over years, a type of bacteria/algae grows and dies creating a sludge buildup at the bottom of most tanks. If you suspect a problem, give us a call for more information. *Since 2013- , all Fegley’s heating oil is now treated to combat the buildup of sludge. Continued use of our heating oil will keep most sludge in check. When should I use K1 Kerosene? All outside tanks, we recommend kerosene because it will not gel as readily in cold weather. (also available for pickup at our Tamaqua Mini Mart) Is dyed kerosene safe to use? Informally we are told the dye makes no difference, but the manufacturers will not formally make this claim. Manufacturers state as always, portable kerosene heaters should only be used in a ventilated area. So please use discretion when using in a closed area. Un-dyed Clear Kerosene is available at the pump at our Tamaqua Mini Mart. I have an outside tank, what fuel should I use? K1 Kerosene is recommended over Heating Oil because of its low gel point for cold weather, however Heating Oil with a Anti-Gel additive is an option. We strongly suggest K1 Kerosene.

Is Valero gasoline really better than Un-Branded and why does it cost more? All-American Valero gasoline (www.Valero.com is an All-American company based in San Antonio, Texas) has additives to help keep your engine cleaner and run more efficiently. Valero is a Top Tier gasoline www.toptier.com . The additional additives cost more, hence, the greater cost. There is a difference! Valero uses all American Crude oil. What do you do during a furnace clean and service? Tune up includes: disassemble and inspect the inside of the furnace, then thoroughly clean and dislodge any soot in the fire chamber, smoke pipe, and gun assembly. Replace the spray nozzle, oil filter, fuel pump strainer and reassemble the unit. Our technicians also will check the efficiency, conduct a smoke test, temperature test, and do a visual inspection of your storage tank. How much would it cost to replace my furnace and/or oil tank? The cost varies greatly with the unit size and labor involved to change it. Fegley’s offers free estimates with no obligations. Hot water oil furnace replacement on average is $4000-$8000. Oil tank prices again vary greatly because of labor removing the old tank, but average tank replacements are running $1000-$1500. What material and size fuel storage tank fill / vent pipe is required? Standard fuel oil storage tanks must have black iron steel pipe (no plastic) for both the fill pipe and the vent pipe. In accordance with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) code, no vent pipe should be smaller than the tank’s largest fill or withdrawl connection to the tank. Likewise, no vent pipe should ever be less than 1 1/4 inches in diameter. Owners of all plastic piped systems and systems piped with 1″ or smaller lines can not be filled. If you are in doubt of your tanks or piping, please give us a call and we will be glad to check the system for you at no cost.
