I'd be ECSTATIC at that price, seeing that CODoil here (cheapest price I've found) is going for $3.47/gal. :gulp:

tumbles said:I'm down to about 250-300 gallons of oil for mainly DHW. I use to burn about 700 -750 gallons. We locked in our oil this year for 3:19 but I only had to buy 300 gallons as I didn't use all my allocated oil last year. Didn't have to even do that as both my oil tanks are 3/4 full. In my HO, Oil companies and speculators are shooting themselves in the foot by keeping the price up. When I bought my stove, it was to give my household options about what to use for heat. I was tired of being held captive. I save a little over a thousand $ a year by burning pellets plus I'm keeping my house warmer (about 75 at night). Win win if you ask me. I mainly use the oil for back up heat (when gone skiing for the weekend) and DHW, but when it's time to replace it, I will be looking at alternatives. Not sure what would be best. Time will tell. Government ought to be having people weatherize their homes and using cheaper alternatives before just giving them money for oil. Not a solution to the problem as it will be the same deal again next year and the year after.
tumbles said:Do you think the outside reset saved you much? I added the super store about 3 years ago and that made a big difference (about 15 % ). My boiler is for 1996 and is still at 84% efficiency so I can't justify changing it quite yet. My next move was the outside reset but I'm not sure if I should pull the trigger. I will talk with my boiler man this fall. I heat my garage too so burning 300 gallons a year isn't so bad. I'm pretty happy with the set up I have but I will concider the outside reset too. Thanks for the information.

I thought most of Chicopee was NG, at least everything toward Springfield was.
the place i get oil from is in waterbury they come all the way up past hartford for me . pm me if interested in the co they might deliver to youjosserman said:$3.12 a gallon is great! I'm in upper Fairfield county CT and i was quoted $3.64 by two companies. Last year (Sept -> Current) I used 1050+ gallons of oil. 450 of that was between October and Dec/Jan. After getting my first bill in Nov for $1000+ I insulated my attic and basement, and kept my wood stove running almost 24/7. Trying to predict prices for this year now and if I should do a prebuy, budget/cap program or just pay market rate. With all the tree's down I'm thinking I am best off going and buying a chain saw and putting together a few cords! May even be best to get a 2nd stove for the other side of my house.
Yup prices are heading up.roadking88 said:well with oil up over 3 bucks a barrel, i just ordered oil before it goes up tomorrow..
