"We recently switched our provider of propane to Palmer Gas & Oil and have been extremely happy with the process. Both Michelle and Kim were great on the phone, setting up our account, determining our needs, scheduling our installation and answering our questions. During our site survey it was clear that Michelle was quite experienced and made the next steps easy. The removal of our old tanks and installation of new ones went just as planned. Rick R and Nate arrived right on time and greeted us with a smile. After checking all of our gas operated appliances to be sure they worked properly, we sat down and talked with Rick about safety. While we’ve had propane for a number of years we weren’t aware of several things that he told us about. We just purchased a gas detector, something we hadn’t heard of before. It’s a great feeling to know that we made the right choice switching to Palmer and look forward to a long and pleasant relationship with the company."

They also did my service upgrade and were completely professional through the whole process. I ended up with some MRCOOL units that worked really well this winter. They've been great to work with."

"Do NOT use this company! We were in urgent need to get a split installed and he was very quick to respond and make an appointment to check our place out. He spent hours assessing our situation and went above and beyond to try see if ge could fix our existing system. While we ended up finally getting a split that worked, he is NOT licensed to do electrical work and blew breakers ( and our microwave) that cost us another $1500 to have a licensed electrician fix. Not to mention he charged us for a snow roof for the unit that he never ordered! Something is terribly wrong here. While he may have a decent reputation in the past, he is not reliable and will try to get your money before the job is done. We had to track him down repeatedly when he didn?t come when he was supposed to and had one excuse after another. . BEWARE!!!! From what I can see, this has been a problem with many others. Thank goodness we didn?t pay him before he completed the job-we?re sure he wouldn?t have come back "

Heating oil services FAQs
To buy heating oil for your house, contact local heating oil companies to compare prices and place an order once you decide on a supplier. The company will have to deliver your heating oil in a truck designed to carry and dispense heating oil safely. Call and order your heating oil early enough to have your oil delivered before you need to start using it for home heating.
On average, you’ll need about two gallons of oil per day to heat your house when it’s 50 degrees Fahrenheit outside. Most oil tank capacity is about 275 gallons, and heating your house with two gallons of oil per day will last about four and a half months. This consumption will vary depending on the climate and average temperature in your location. For example, if the winters are longer and colder where you live, you’ll probably need to refill your oil tank at least once to get through the winter.
You save money on heating oil in a few ways:
Make sure your home is well insulated and sealed against drafts and heat leakage.
Use a thermostat that’s working properly and calibrated accurately.
Increase energy efficiency by insulating your basement and attic.
Turn down your thermostat a few degrees.
Program your thermostat to lower the heat when you’re not home.
Order heating oil during the off-season when prices are likely to be lower.
Summer months tend to be when heating oil prices are lowest because of decreased demand. Buying heating oil during the off-season also prepares you for when the weather gets cold, and you need to start using the oil to heat your home. Although heating oil prices will fluctuate, it’s best to avoid purchasing between September and April, as that's the peak season for heating oil demand.
Overall, heating your home with an oil furnace tends to be less expensive than heating your home with an electric heating system. Oil heating systems stay warm for longer periods of time without drawing a constant electrical current to maintain a temperature. Plus, heating oil systems typically have a longer lifespan and lower price tag than their electrical counterparts, resulting in short- and long-term savings.
