Today's Oil Heat is Clean
The number one myth about home heating oil is that it is dirty. Wrong! Home heating oil is a clear, rosy-red liquid that is non-toxic, biodegradable and has no carcinogens. Oil heat burns at a level of overall cleanliness approaching 99.9% and unlike gas carries no risk of explosion. In fact, oil heat emissions have such low output that they aren't even regulated by the Federal Clean Air Act.
Because of their high efficiency and cleanliness, oil heat systems have an amazingly small impact on the environment. In fact, the Environmental Protection Agency says that modern oil burners are one of the cleanest combustion sources available. They release near zero levels of smoke and combustion discharge and produce less greenhouse gas than natural gas systems. Home heating oil is also non-toxic and biodegradable. It all means that oil heat remains a responsible environmental choice for heating your home despite the scare tactics you may have heard from unscrupulous contractors looking to make a quick buck through expensive and unnecessary conversions.
Heating oil is a highly inflammable liquid petroleum product with low viscosity and mainly used as fuel in furnaces in buildings or boilers used for residential and commercial purpose.
