It won’t be long until you turn on your home’s heating system. If you haven’t put a fuel delivery plan in place for this winter, there isn’t a better time to do so than right now. This winter, allow Skaggs-Walsh to supply your Bioheat® fuel with our automatic delivery service to provide your warmth and comfort.

Take Advantage of Automatic Delivery

Automatic delivery provides you with peace of mind. When you trust Skaggs-Walsh with your fuel delivery schedule, you won’t have to worry about checking the gauge on your oil tank. Automatic delivery works by using data from your usage history to more accurately schedule your next delivery. We use state-of-the-art software incorporating degree-day information to calculate your usage rate and know when your next delivery is needed.

Why You Should Purchase Your Bioheat® Fuel with Skaggs-Walsh

Bioheat® fuel is a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional fuels. It is made by combining Oilheat with biodiesel, which is created from renewable resources such as the oils from soybeans, peanuts, and sunflower seeds. Skaggs-Walsh delivers an industry-leading 20% Bioheat® fuel (B20), which is compatible with all existing heating oil equipment – boilers, furnaces, burners, and tanks. Although all existing heating equipment is approved to run on blends of up to 20% Bioheat® fuel, if your existing heating equipment is more than 15 years old, it could be beneficial to upgrade your equipment to improve its efficiency, which will save you both fuel and money. Skaggs-Walsh is happy to provide the installation of upgraded equipment and also any necessary maintenance or repairs. By allowing Skaggs-Walsh to supply its fuel to your home, you will be doing your part in reducing your greenhouse gas emissions. As an added bonus, due to the New York State tax credit, our fuel will allow you to benefit from the maximum available tax credit.

New York State Will Pay You to Use Bioheat® Fuel

Since 2012, New York State has offered a tax credit for residents who fuel their homes with Bioheat® fuel. The New York Clean Heating Fuel Credit pays you up to $0.20 per gallon of Bioheat® fuel purchased in the previous year. Specifically, you earn an extra 1 cent for every percentage of biodiesel between B6 and B20. Thanks to Skaggs-Walsh delivering B20 Bioheat® fuel, customers earn the full $0.20 per gallon, allowing you to take full advantage of the available tax credit. For example, if you purchased 750 gallons of B20 last year, you could earn as much as $150 this tax season.
