Equipment

How well do you know the pieces that make up your heating system?

While a NORA-trained and certified technician knows best, we believe every property owner should know the difference between their oil burner and their water heater, and understand how they work. Why? Because it’s YOUR home. Furthermore, a little knowledge on your part will make it easier to explain a problem if you call for service, and easier to understand the explanation when the technician comes to repair it. So take a minute or two, and explore your Oilheat equipment.
