ULSHO: The Greener Home Heating Oil

Want an eco-friendly way to heat your Long Island home this fall and winter?

You already have it!

Every gallon of  you buy from Southville Petroleum is an ultra-low sulfur blend (ULSHO) – one of the most environmentally friendly home energy sources available today.

Compared to other fuels used for home heating, ULSHO:

• Is more efficient – ULSHO reduces sooting and scaling compared to regular heating oil, which means less heat is lost up your chimney. Comparing ULSHO’s efficiency to natural gas, there’s no contest: you would have to burn 40 percent more natural gas to receive the BTU equivalent of burning ULSHO heating oil.
• Burns cleaner – Compared to regular heating oil, ULSHO reduces sulfur dioxide by 75 percent, particulate matter by 80 percent, nitrous oxide by 10 percent and carbon dioxide by two percent.
• Lengthens your equipment’s lifespan – Cleaner fuel means you’ll have fewer deposits on heat exchangers, which means a longer life and less maintenance for your equipment. A longer lifespan means fewer furnaces and boilers in the landfill.

And the future looks even better for heating oil: super-efficient heating systems are already being used outside the US with great results.
