- Home Heating Oil, Kerosene, burns healthier than natural gas releasing fewer hydrocarbons into the atmosphere
- It will not explode
- Home Heating Oil will only burn if heated to 140 degrees
- Natural gas boilers can malfunction and release carbon monoxide gas before any fumes are released into the atmosphere, leaving your family vulnerable.
- 28sec Burning Oil Is Efficient
- Paraffin burns 400 degrees hotter than natural gas.
- Oil has a faster recovery than any other type of heat.
- Our engineers can upgrade oil boilers quickly and economically
What is Kerosene?
Kerosene is a combustible oil with low viscosity used by businesses and homes as fuel to generate heat, light and power. Kerosene has many names, although these all refer to the same energy; these names include kerosine, paraffin, heating oil, 28 second, kero, lamp oil, burning oil and boiler fuel.
28-second refers to Kerosene’s viscosity through a specific test of how long it takes 50ml of the oil to drip into a beaker. It also explains how red diesel gets its ’35-second’ name.
Kerosene trades in the $US and fluctuates constantly. You can see the current price at oilprice.com.
