Automatic Delivery Customers: What Are Your Heating Season Plans?

Written on: October 5, 2020

Automatic delivery is a great way to take the worry of managing your heating oil and propane supply, which can help you prevent costly and inconvenient fuel run-outs.

But as you might already know, your automatic delivery schedule is derived from computer estimates, based on a combination of your past usage and the current weather, measured in “degree days.” As sophisticated as our computer models are, they can’t account for significant changes your lifestyle that might affect how much fuel use.

That’s why we need to hear from you!

Changes That Effect Fuel Use

If something significant has changed in your house or your home life since last heating season that might affect how much oil or propane you use, PLEASE LET US KNOW ASAP. For example, let us know if:

• You’re home more than usual, with the heat turned up more often than in the recent past (true of many of us this year)
• You’re planning to stay at a second home for all or part of the fall and winter
• Someone has moved into or out of your home
• A tenant has moved in or left their apartment
• A long-term guest has arrived or intends to leave
• You plan to remodel or have already put an addition on your Pennsylvania home

If any of these life changes have happened for you since last heating season, please let us know so we can adjust your propane or heating oil delivery schedule!

If you’re planning or have made changes like these to your home life, please let us know so we can adjust your automatic heating oil deliveries or propane deliveries to your Tunkhannock, PA-area home. And remember: for reliable heating oil and propane deliveries in central and southeastern PA, nobody beats the pros at Ace-Robbins!
