The winters in our part of the state can look like something out of a storybook. But when you’re dealing with days on end of temperatures in the teens and large quantities of snow and ice, the weather can seem less than picturesque.
For homes that depend on oil-heat to stay warm on frigid nights, “gelling” can be an issue. Gelling is when heating fuel begins to thicken in sustained freezing temperatures. This waxier fuel can clog your fuel lines or fail to atomize in your burner, resulting in heat loss. We appreciate that households can’t lose their heat on the coldest days of the year, when they need it the most.
The Roberts Energy family of companies delivers kerosene to customers with outdoor tanks or in mobile homes or other circumstances that require winterized fuel. In fact, we are the most trusted kerosene provider in the region. We take the utmost pride in being there for Vermonters, addressing all their winterized fuel needs.
Kerosene is a refined fuel made by distilling crude oil in a process that results in low viscosity and a much lower gel point than traditional heating oil has. That means it can stay stable in much colder temperatures than heating oil.
Kerosene has existed for centuries and was trademarked in 1854. It’s been used to power lamps, stoves and farm equipment. Today, in addition to its residential role, this fuel is widely used in commercial applications as a solvent, a lubricant and jet and rocket fuel.
The Roberts Energy family of companies has local offices in Brattleboro, Bridport, Fairfax, Grand Isle and other Vermont communities. Whether you need kerosene or a fifty-fifty blend of kerosene and heating oil, our team can quickly accommodate you.
