Q: What should I do to prepare for a delivery?
Please keep your driveway and any access paths to your propane tank or clear of ice and snow so that our delivery team can complete your fuel delivery safely. Also, please be sure to unlock any gates or entrances the delivery driver will need to access your tank.

The Service Plans are a benefit for automatic delivery customers with equipment in good condition. Preexisting conditions are not covered by the service plan. Refusing delivery or cancelling automatic delivery would void the service plan.

Requests to change delivery status must be submitted in writing for our records. You can mail in a notice or email us if you would like to make any changes to your delivery status.

Q: How do I check my tank level?
To check your heating oil or propane tank gauge, follow the steps below:
- OIL: Most oil tanks have a tank gauge on the top of the tank. If you suspect your tank gauge may be broken, please contact the office to schedule replacement. Underground oil tanks require you to stick the tank to check the oil level.
- PROPANE: Most propane tanks have a cap on the top of the tank that you can lift up to reveal a gauge. The gauge reads off of percentages. Propane tanks are only ever filled to 80% capacity.
Q: What type of propane heating system do I have?
There are two types of central heating systems: forced hot water (also known as a boiler) and forced hot air (also known as a furnace). The easiest way to tell which type you have is by the kind of heaters you have in your home. If you have vents, your home is heated by forced hot air or a furnace. If you have baseboard heat or radiators, your home is heated by forced hot water or a boiler.
