If the furnace doesn't start, check the fuel level in your tank by checking the gauge, however some gauges wear out over time and become inaccurate.

| The only true way to know the amount of fuel in the tank is to
stick the tank for the inches of fuel. If the tank has an opening insert a broomstick or
some other rod that the oil will show on. Measure the inches of fuel and use the tank chart which will give you the gallons for a normal 275
gallon heating oil tank. For example, 15 inches of fuel in a vertical h/o tank has 86
gallons of fuel. The one method that has proven NOT to be an accurate measure of fuel is knocking on the tank. No matter how much fuel is in the tank it will sound hollow or empty. Don't rely on knocking on the tank to keep you from running out of fuel. Let our experience and dedication keep you from running out. If you have any questions or have run out of oil, please contact us and one of our experienced personnel will be glad to help you. |
