One of the most recent fuel innovations in the Oilheat industry is Bioheat - a green, clean alternative fuel that is good for the environment. Bioheat is heating oil blended with soybean or other vegetable oils to create a renewable and non-toxic fuel for home heating.

Discover the reasons why Bioheat is the improved choice for home heating systems:

• Produced in America, soy beans and other Bioheat materials help support our nation's farmers and reduce our dependence on foreign oil.
• Bioheat has the highest BTU content of any alternative fuel, which means more efficient burning.
• Bioheat burns cleaner than regular Oilheat. It contains almost no sulfur, and significantly reduces particulates and greenhouse gases.
• Bioheat lubricates heating system parts more thoroughly and efficiently.
• Bioheat costs about the same as conventional Oilheat.

The National Oilheat Research Alliance (NORA) has found that a Bioheat blend of 80% low-sulfur heating oil and 20% soybean oil (called B20) reduced sulfur oxide emissions by as much as 80% or more, nitrogen oxide emissions by about 20%, and carbon dioxide emissions by 20%. By using Bioheat to heat their home, homeowners can have the peace of mind in knowing that they are helping the environment while enjoying complete comfort.
