Your water heater is one of the workhorses in your northeastern Pennsylvania home. You rely on it to provide all the hot water you and your family need for bathing, laundry, washing the dishes, et cetera. That could be a lot of hot water! And the winter months put an additional strain on it. Considering how much more demand your family puts on your water heater during the winter, now is not a good time to take this appliance for granted. Is yours running optimally, in need of some repairs, or on its last legs and ready for replacement? No matter what your water heater needs are, Ace-Robbins is able to help.
Let’s take a moment to consider how much your water heater does for your household and the additional challenges it faces during the winter.
With all your water heater has to do all winter to help keep you and your family comfortable, you don’t want to take it for granted. And if it’s time for an upgrade, now is a great time to come to Ace-Robbins for a new water heater.

Have you ever wondered how long the heating oil or propane tank on your Northeastern Pennsylvania property is supposed to last? Here’s the good news: fuel tanks are built for longevity. However, nothing lasts forever, so it is important to keep track of the age of yours and what kind of shape it’s in.
The average heating oil tank will last approximately 15 years. How long yours lasts will depend on how well it’s maintained and how it’s constructed. Older tanks are made of steel. Modern tanks are made of plastic and fiberglass. They can last 50 years or more! The location of your tank’s connector valve also affects its longevity. When connector valves are at the bottom of the tank, they tend to last longer than those on the side of the tank.
An aboveground propane tank can last 30 years or longer. That’s largely due to the very strict safety and durability protocols that govern them. How long your tank lasts will be determined by its size and how well it’s maintained.
An underground propane tank can last anywhere between 20 and 30 years. How long your tank lasts will depend a lot on what type of soil it’s in and how well it was installed.
Ace-Robbins delivers, installs, and monitors both heating oil and propane tanks. We’ll also help you choose the right size tank for your household’s needs. Once installed, you’ll enjoy the following with your new tank:
If you sign up for tank monitoring with Ace-Robbins, you’ll never have to worry about having a fuel run-out. You’ll be able to see your tank level whenever and from wherever you like on our free mobile app. We’ll also keep an eye on your tank levels for you and schedule fuel deliveries accordingly.
Ace-Robbins serves customers in Bradford, Lackawanna, Luzerne, Susquehanna, Sullivan, and Wyoming County.

If you’ve never needed to rent a dumpster before, the process may seem a little daunting.
That’s OK. Ace-Robbins is here for you every step of the way! Our experienced and knowledgeable staff will help you figure out everything you need when it comes to renting a dumpster.
Here are some key factors to consider when determining the size dumpster you will need for your project.
The type of project you’re doing may impact what size dumpster you need. For example, if you’re doing a bathroom renovation you may not need as large a dumpster as you would if you’re emptying the contents of a house after a loved one has passed.
Volume matters. For example, if your project involves a lot of boxes, like for a move or a renovation, you can break those boxes down to be flat, so they take up less space in the dumpster. However, if you are discarding bulky items like furniture or cabinetry, those take up more space and may necessitate renting a larger dumpster.
As a reminder, there are many things that Ace-Robbins does not accept due to regulations and safety concerns, such as household appliances, hazardous materials (automotive fluids, pesticides, pool chemicals, herbicides), electronics, flammable liquids, paint, air conditioners, car tires, and any item that contains gasoline, oil or R-22 refrigerant (commonly known as Freon).
If you’re dealing with a tight space, you may need a smaller dumpster. We’ll help you figure that out.
Here’s where Ace-Robbins offers a big advantage. Our dumpsters are designed to fit an average residential driveway, with higher volume within a smaller footprint. We also place protective wood boards under the dumpster to protect your driveway.
Ace-Robbins provides complete dumpster services to homes and businesses in Wyoming County and the surrounding area. We’re glad to answer any questions you have about our services, so get in touch with us and get a FREE quote!
Dear Valued Customer,
Once again, we’re seeing energy prices surge across the board. We know how painful that can be for our customers. It’s painful for us as well.
Gasoline has risen more than a dollar more per gallon vs. a year ago. Natural gas prices have skyrocketed more than 150%. Crude oil prices have climbed above $100 per barrel, a level we haven’t seen in seven years.
The cost of electricity has not been spared either. Higher natural gas prices result in price hikes for wholesale electricity because of heavy reliance on natural gas-fired power plants.
What’s more, wholesale propane prices have hit their highest weekly average levels since February 2014. Read more about the factors that are driving today’s energy market.
People sometimes misunderstand how negatively all this impacts us as well. We don’t make more money when prices rise like this–we make less. Think of it this way: it’s like when the cost of coffee, milk or orange juice rises. It’s not the local grocery that is profiting. (That’s left to the Wall Street investors). Our customers have a harder time paying their bills. They reduce expenditures. We need to tap into our lines of credit more. Our phones light up with questions. So the sooner energy prices drop, the happier we’ll be.
In the meantime, please talk to us about things we can offer to help you reduce your energy costs, or handle payments more easily. And if you are having trouble with your bills, please call us. We can generally work with you if you reach out before you fall behind.
We’ve been in business for many years and have deep roots in the community. We have secure access to supply. We are doing everything possible to ensure we can deliver—even if other companies cannot—no matter the cost or difficulty we face.
We thank you for your understanding and we appreciate your loyalty. As we’ve done quite a few times in the past, we will get through these tough times by all working together.
If the propane furnace in your Northeastern Pennsylvania home is on the older side, chances are it relies on a pilot light for ignition. If the furnace’s pilot light goes out, your furnace won’t work. (Modern furnaces utilize electric ignition, which makes them more efficient and reliable.)
If the pilot light on your furnace goes out, it’s probably due to one of the following four primary causes:
If a draft or wind causes your pilot light to go out, you can reset it by following the steps below. However, first check with the manufacturer’s instructions for resetting your pilot light and follow those instead if they are different from what’s listed below.
To reset the pilot light on your furnace if a wind or draft blew it out, do the following:
Modern furnaces are significantly more efficient than their predecessors. If you think it might be time to replace the furnace in your Northeastern Pennsylvania home, Ace-Robbins has you covered. We’ll provide a free, no-obligation evaluation of your current furnace as well as an estimate on the cost of a new furnace. Whether you need repairs, service, or installation, we can handle it.

If you’re the type of person that always forgoes the warranty, you may also be tempted to go without having a service plan for the heating oil or propane heating system in your Northeastern Pennsylvania home. We at Ace-Robbins think that’s a mistake.
As a homeowner, it’s not a matter of whether something will go wrong or break down, it’s simply a matter of when and how expensive it will be to get things up and running again. However, if you’re getting regular service, chances are your technician will be able to save you the big, expensive repairs by discovering and addressing issues while they’re still small. In addition to saving you money, it will also save you some unwelcomed surprise breakdowns.
Having a service plan is like going to the doctor or dentist for your annual checkup. By keeping on top of things and getting a check-up each year, it’s less likely that something critical will sneak up and catch you completely off guard. In the same way that your doctor tests your blood and checks your vitals to make sure your body is working as well as it can, when you sign up for an Ace-Robbins service plan, we’ll make annual maintenance visits to ensure that your heating system equipment is in tip-top shape—whether you have a boiler or a furnace. And a well-running heating system is an efficiently running heating system. Higher efficiency means you’re getting more for each dollar you spend on fuel.
In the event that we discover a problem during one of our maintenance visits (or if anything goes wrong at any point with your heating system), as a service plan customer, you’ll save money on all covered repairs and parts. And if you opt for our Oil Heat Comprehensive Plan, you’ll also be guaranteed 24-hour priority emergency heating service. You’ll be glad for the shorter wait if things go wrong on a particularly cold day (and don’t they always?).
So what are you waiting for? Give yourself some additional peace of mind and help avoid an unwanted no-heat situation this winter. Sign up for an Ace-Robbins service plan today. And if you’ve already signed up for one of our service plans in the past, now is a good time to renew so you’re guaranteed uninterrupted coverage. Click here for all the details.
