"If you are considering changing your fuel supplier to Pitstop Fuels - DON'T DO IT. Just when you thought customer service in this country couldn't reach higher lows Pitstop is proof it could. I don't know what has happened to this country when company's that you have done business with and spend thousands with annually, have no qualms about leaving a human being in Maine without heat until January. Well, actually I do know what has happened to this country but that's a subject for another day. Yes, that is right, it is now mid-December and they were completely unwilling to answer and emergency service call for no heat until January. I have been a customer of Pitstop for at least 10-12 years maybe more. They supply LP and #oil for my own house and other rental properties I own. I called on 12/13/2021 with a NO HEAT issue for one of my rental properties and even spoke to the manager Dennis, who reiterated they were prepared to leave my tenant without heat until Janaury. This is a far cry from the service one used to receive from Melanie who used to manage the propane department deliveries and service. Not only is it morally wrong to leave a tenant without heat in the winter - it is illegal but Pitstop didn't give a rat's behind. Having owned properties for many years and having to deal with repairs from time to time, it was always understood that heating companies always provided EMERGENCY SERVICE within 24 hours for NO HEAT situations. Well that is exactly what would have happened if I used another supplier. I contacted them all and companies such as Downeast would have provided that emergency repair service if I was a customer of theirs. That is exactly what my mistake was as less than a month ago I was prepared to leave Pitstop after repeatedly being given incorrect pricing on LP when they said they would match the price Downeast was offering me. I should have just told them to go pound sand then but I gave them a second chance, which was a huge mistake. MY BEST ADVICE IS TO AVOID PITSTOP AT ALL COSTS because when an EMERGENCY NO HEAT situation arises they really don't care. Once this winter passes and I no longer have a resident in this unit I WILL BE SWITCHING SUPPLIERS. Fortunately for me I can do so immediately for 2 of my properties, one where I use #2 oil and another where I wisely purchased my own tank allowing me to go anywhere with my business. In other words I can vote with my $$$. As a business owner I understand how important the bottom line is but the safety and comfort of human beings trumps that in all cases. PITSTOP IS ON MY "GO POUND SAND" list and I will be getting rid of their leased tanks come spring and no longer order any type fo fuel from them EVER AGAIN. WHO NEEDS A COMPANY LIKE THIS THAT WOULD LEAVE SOMEONE WITHOUT HEAT TILL JANUARY 2022."

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.
