When was the last time you took advantage of an Energy Conservation Technicians’ ability to reduce you energy consumption?
Energy Costs
All energy costs have been rising. From time to time one energy source may have an advantage over another however; over the past 5 years heating oil has averaged 37% less expensive than natural gas. Over the past 10 years heating oil has averaged 44% less expensive than natural gas. Over the past 15 years heating oil has averaged 36% less expensive than natural gas. In dollar terms- a natural gas user spent $3900.00 more than a comparable oil heat user to heat a home over the past 10 years.
Future costs of energy are difficult to predict, though the U.S. department of Energy estimates that oil and natural gas will generally behave about the same in terms of their price increases and decreases out into the next 20 years.
Energy Supplies
All of the new natural gas coming into the Northeast comes from Canada. All of the LNG [Liquefied Natural Gas] being proposed for the Northeast in projects like Broadwater in Long Island Sound come from Africa or the Caribbean. Suffice it to say natural gas comes from foreign sources, just as some of our oil comes from foreign sources.
Switching Fuels Makes No Sense
Your heating system is a 20 year investment. Given that you have saved money being an oil heat consumer over the last 20 years and that future energy costs are impossible to predict with certainty, the wisest choice to make is to conserve energy and reduce consumption. Conservation is less expensive and has the fastest pay-back or return on investment than any choice you face to control your energy costs. Paying $6000.00 for a conversion to another fuel makes no economic or energy sense at all unless you are an electric heat consumer to convert to oilheat.
What Conservation Measures Could You Take
There are a number of good investments consumers can make to reduce their energy consumption and their energy costs.
- Install a Programmable Thermostat: Consumers who use programmable thermostats can see a return on investment of 124% or more. For as little as $50.00, the programmable thermostat produces one of the biggest savings for the lowest cost.
- Maintaining Efficiency: Consumers who use their energy efficiency Technicians to maintain their heating systems at maximum efficiency can save between 5% and 10% per year on energy costs. This means even older systems can be kept at relatively good efficiencies for remarkably low cost using professional Energy Efficiency Technicians.
- The Whole Dwelling: There are dozens of ways for you to control energy costs ranging from things you can do for free or relatively low cost to installing programmable thermostats to using an Energy Efficiency Technician to maintain your system-to upgrading your old system to a new, super-high efficiency system of the type we have available today.
Replacing Equipment
Today’s oil heat technology is actually a combination of several 21st century innovations from a number of equipment manufacturers-things like side-wall venting, indirect water heating, and higher efficiency standards. Newer furnaces and boilers are smaller, quieter and they work wonderfully with other new home heating technology like programmable thermostats and radiant flooring.
Today’s high technology energy solutions reach efficiencies of 90% or higher and dramatically reduce consumption, emissions and save energy dollars.
It’s a well known fact that replacing an older heating system with ultramodern oil heat can be one of the most effective ways to reduce the amount of fuel you use.
