I am not talking about your ordinary oil burner, I can tell you that much!
I have said this in previous posts but I love my waste oil boiler system. It is one of the best things that I have put my money into.
Because back in 2007 I purchased a waste oil burner heating system I can now put at least $400 in my pocket monthly.
To me having this machine is the equivalent to having a rental property that is giving me passive income. Its the exact same concept. Its money being put into your pocket that you did not have to work for.
If I did not have my Energy Logic waste oil heating system than I would be spending an extra $400+ to heat my home and shop every single month.
I had known many people with these exact same systems as mine but they failed to maintain and take care of their machines. They failed to filter the oil going into their burner and they never got annual tune-ups.
It did not take long for their boiler or furnace to start breaking down and then the complaints started that this technology was worthless.
I heard from many guys who worked for people who had purchased waste oil boilers who said their boss uninstalled these machines after buying them because they were giving them way too much trouble.
They ragged on them and said they did not work and blah blah this and blah blah that.
You can go on these forums and you will hear people saying the exact same thing. I got into an argument with this guy because he said that Omni and Energy logic boilers sucked and were no good.
He claimed that he was a boiler technician who has had to fixed tons of the very ones that I have.
Well, my waste oil boiler has never broken down. It has never given me any problems. I still pay $10 a month for the hook up fee to natural gas just in case my waste oil boiler breaks down and I have never had to use it whatsoever.
The reason is that I have filtered all the oil going into my system. I have went beyond the call of duty in doing this.
These oil burners are very delicate and can clog up easily if you do not take the utmost care of them. You need to make certain that you get as much of the contaminants out as possible, including water, and make certain that no chlorine gets in there. In addition you need yearly tune-ups on them.
If you do the same you will have a waste oil burner system that will last a long time without any problems.
I have said it many times and I will keep saying it.
I think this technology is wonderful and I want everyone to know about it but if you would like to take advantage of it you need to know how to protect your $8000+ investment.
If you do not than you will waste your money and then prevent others from wanting to get one.
I am glad to see small towns investing in these things now. These small villages or towns do not have huge budgets and it takes a lot of convince them.
The town of Cambellsport, Wisconsin built a new Department of Public works buildings and installed a waste oil boiler to heat it.
Marvelous! More places should jump on board. They would save a bundle and could finally stop raising our property taxes.
