Home Heating Oils, rates and insights

There are two types Home Heating Oils:

The CNG home Heating Oil and the LPG home Heating Oil.

Methane home Heating Oil is a simple hydrocarbon that burns in the presence of oxygen resulting in carbon dioxide, water and heat. This reaction is exploited in all common domestic uses methane for heating boilers for producing hot water in ranges and ovens for cooking food.
Methane home Heating Oil comes to our homes directly in gaseous form through a network of pipes that spread over almost the entire national territory, so you can pay only the actual consumption and there is no need for storage tanks. Methane home Heating Oil is produced by extraction from natural deposits, decay of organic material to landfill, anaerobic digestion (without oxygen) of biomass is odorless and non-toxic.

In summary, climate protection and energy saving aspects are increasingly important in the politics of energy management. However, what matters most to the final consumer is the cost. To make things clear for the most recent published data comparing the prices of home Heating Oils:

• Diesel ( home Heating Oil) £ 1.1278 / s 10 kWh
• Liquid gas ( home Heating Oil) (in tanks) 1.878 pounds / kg
• Natural Gas ( home Heating Oil )  0.6496 GBP / m³

 The above home Heating Oil prices are determined taking as reference the average annual consumption (15,000 kWh, equivalent to approx. 1500 liters of diesel) of a British family (building heat category Class C). These figures may vary significantly if actual consumption is much higher or lower than our assumptions.

In order to compare them between different fuels it was decided to divide the respective unit prices (eg. 1.29 per liter for diesel) for energy efficiency (eg. 1 liter of gas = 10 kWh). In this way we obtained the cost per kilowatt hour (kWh) of each fuel.

Advice on the use of home Heating Oils:

1) bleed the radiators at the beginning of the cold season. The air lodged in the radiator prevents the circulation of hot water, keeping the partially cold radiators with the boiler on. It 'a very simple operation. Bleed air from the radiator until water comes out. A glass and a ground cloth to avoid soiling the house. Repeat for two or three times the operation on all the radiators during the first week of the operation of heating. The advice applies to both plants and for those central heating.

2) attention to the shelves. As you go to buy natural gas for heating, do not stop to buy products placed on the shelves central: for marketing reasons often cheaper products for consumers are placed at the bottom, in the most hard to reach
