I know this is the woodshed and this is somewhat off topic, but it does relate to my secondary heat supply.
We have two 275 tanks, both reading about 3/4ths capacity. Probably not going to too much more. Oil furnace kicks in around 2am in deep winter for a few cycles in the wee hours. Most nights the past week, hasn't kicked in at all given the increasing warmth.
What's in there is mostly from fall 2008 with a little from a delivery around Dec. 1 2009.
Unless we have some brutal nights next winter, it's quite possible some of this oil will be in the tanks in 2012.
Any issues? If so, are there any preventative steps to take to preserve the oil and/or safeguard my furnace?
