Farmers' Almanac 2012-2013 Official Winter Weather Forecast Map

The Farmers' Almanac has long been known for foretelling the weather with amazing accuracy.  This year's Winter Weather Forecast Map is now available.  And for our Clean Burn customers in Maryland, Delaware and Lancaster PA, a look at this map is great way to start preparing for the cold winter ahead.

Follow this link here to see the Farmers' Almanac Winter Forecast Map:  http://www.farmersalmanac.com/forum/2012/07/23/new-official-2012-2013-united-states-winter-forecast/  The forecast is cold and snowy for the Northeastern part of the United States.

A cold winter has many positive business implications for Auto Repair Shops in the Northeast.  Icy and snowy weather means more fender benders.  Towing companies get busy and drivers flock to their local Auto Body repair shops.  Many drivers prepare for the winter weather by getting a tune up in September or October.  New tires are purchased and installed in preparation for snowy weather.

Heating your shop can become a challenge when that cold weather hits and the winter winds blow, particularly if your building is not well insulated or if your doors are open often.  Heating bills often go through the roof, bringing business owners to ask the question:  How can I save money on my heating bills?

If your company is not prepared for heating during this year's winter weather, or for more information about Clean Burn waste oil furnaces,  please contact Eco Heating Systems at 866-888-1103.

Reminder:  #1 reason for Service Calls this time of year.

As the nights get cooler, we realize that cold weather is coming so keep an eye on the oil levels in your tank. You will burn through your oil more quickly with these colder temperatures.

To avoid running out of fuel:

1.         Check your tank every day and keep your tank at least half full at all times. 

2.         Don’t let your used oil hauler take oil without your permission.

3.         Remember, the pickup tube is 10 to 12 inches of the bottom of your tank so it doesn’t pick up the junk that settles at the bottom of the tank.  As a result, it is easy to overestimate the amount of available oil in your tank.

How to Be Happy with Your Waste Oil Furnace

How to Be Happy with Your Waste Oil Furnace

Welcome to our blog about the wonderful world of waste oil furnaces!  It is our goal to educate our readers about how to find satisfaction with their waste oil furnaces.  To that end here are four tips that will help to make your waste oil furnace experience a happy one.

1.  Start out on the right foot by purchasing a waste oil furnace that truly was designed to burn waste oil.  Don’t make the mistake of buying a converted fuel oil furnace.     The Clean Burn waste oil furnace is NOT a converted fuel oil furnace.  In fact, Clean Burn furnaces are the only waste oil furnaces on the market truly designed to burn waste oil.  This allows you to maximize the efficiency of every gallon of oil.  You get more BTU’s out of a Clean Burn furnace!

2.  Have an authorized Clean Burn representative install your furnace.  How well your furnace is installed will have an impact on how well your furnace operates. Be sure to have a company with Clean Burn experience install your furnace.  ECO HEATING SYSTEMS is the authorized distributor of Clean Burn products for Maryland and Delaware. Our company has over twenty years of experience with Clean Burn furnaces and boilers.  Experience Does Matter.

3.   Make sure to put authorized fuels in your tank.  Just like an automobile needs the proper fuel in its tank, so does a waste oil furnace.  Customers who have an effective fuel management plan can have great success with their waste oil furnaces.

4.   An annual maintenance is an important part of caring for your waste oil furnace.   At ECO HEATING SYSTEMS we highly recommend that our customers have a yearly periodic maintenance on their furnaces.  This includes a block flush.  Clean Burn has designed block flushing equipment that will clean the carbon build-up from the pre-heater block in the burner.  Over time heat causes the oil to build up in your burner. It is very important that this block flush is done to keep the nozzle and the burner components clean so that the burner can fire efficiently and last longer.

New Clean Burn Warranty

At Eco Heating Systems things just keep getting better and better!  We are excited to introduce the new Clean Burn warranty.  Instead of a 10 year / 7500 hour pro-rated warranty, Clean Burn has just announced their new warranty to a straight 10 / 15,000 hour warranty.  That is right, they have literally doubled the number of hours covered under their warranty.  This tells you just how confident Clean Burn is about the durability of their furnaces and that means money in your pocket.  Isn’t it nice to know that in a “throw-away world” you still can find value for your dollar.

Just another reason why those who know say “Better get a Clean Burn!”

If you have missed your annual maintenance or haven’t used your furnace much this year don’t neglect getting your furnace serviced.

On average you should change the oil in your vehicle every 4,000 miles or every 3 months. Likewise, maintenance on your furnace should be done every 800 hours or every year. An oil change maintains the functionality of your car, as the annual maintenance on your furnace maintains the performance and durability of your equipment. 

So far this month the Farmer’s Almanac has been correct in our weather forecast. They are predicting more snow in the next 2 weeks. It will be interesting to see if our local weather man or the Farmer’s Almanac has it right. What are your predictions? More snow? Warmer weather? Tell us what you think.
