Bio-Heat at Timms Petroleum

Bioheat is a heating oil blend containing Biodiesel, a renewable fuel. It helps heating oil burn cleaner, making it better for the environment and home heating systems.  The fuel is heating oil mixed with Biodiesel fuel to create "Bioheat".  Biodiesel is made from soybean oil and processed from other fats and vegetable oils.

Bioheat is not a replacement for heating oil.  Bioheat is a product that makes today's heating oil better. Both laboratory testing and in-home field results have demonstrated that a five percent blend of biodiesel to heating oil creates the ideal "Bioheat" product for today's marketplace.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF BIOHEAT?

• Bioheat helps heating oil burn cleaner within a boiler or furnace.  This is better for the environment and can also help maintain cleaner heat exchangers.
• Biodiesel is a natural, renewable resource.
• Since Biodiesel is grown and produced domestically, Bioheat can do its part to alleviate supply constraints on the distillate pool.
• Biodiesel is a widespread and uniformly accepted fuel throughout the nation.  Hundreds of major fleets use Biodiesel, such as all four branches of the military, dozens of school districts, and the National Park Service.
• Bioheat can be delivered to customer storage tanks in the usual manner.
