As mentioned in the first step of this turtorial, one of the best ways to find out about used oil burners is to give any of these distributors a call.
They can help you decide what
burner might be best for your community and they can answer many
of your questions. The more information you can tell
them, the better.
Here is what you can tell the distributor:
 |
About how big the building is that you
want to heat, |
 |
About how much oil your community produces, |
 |
What types of oil are generated in your
community, and |
 |
What kind of electrical power will be
available in the building. |
Here is what you can ask the distributor:
 |
What kind of maintenance required? |
 |
How much does it cost to operate and
maintain? |
 |
Will we run out of used oil if we heat
the building all the time? |
 |
How much does the burner cost and what
does that include? |
 |
What if I order it and it doesn’t
work? |
It may also be helpful to check out
their websites
for further information about their burners.
