Advantages of a Full Service Oil Dealer:

When choosing an oil deliver service you have two main options: COD and Full Service.  COD oil companies only deliver oil – they fill your tank but they don’t provide any additional services. If your equipment breaks, they don’t have the know-how and training to make a repair. Many COD companies will say they have a relationship with a service provider if you encounter a problem. But in the middle of a winter storm, they often won’t have staff available to make a repair when you need it. It may take several days or even weeks to schedule an appointment.

Bi-County Inc is a Full Service provider dedicated to providing excellent service with every gallon of fuel oil we deliver. We provide you with automatic fuel delivery, price protection, preventive maintenance service plans, 24/7 emergency support – and peace of mind. We offer personalized full-service packages for every budget whether your home uses forced-air heat, baseboard heat, or a summer-winter hook-up. Bi-County is a one-stop provider for all of your home’s heating and cooling needs. We can even take care of your plumbing projects as well!

LOW-COST ACCESS TO VIRTUALLY UNLIMITED AMOUNTS OF HOT WATER

Deciding on the right Hot Water Heating System is essential for perfect home comfort. Oil heat’s ability to produce a reliable, inexpensive supply of hot water is one of its strongest features. Oil-fired water heaters have high recovery rates, which means they can heat large amounts of water quickly.

A water heater’s recovery rate is the amount of water whose temperature the unit can raise by 100° in one hour. For example, if it can increase the temperature of 40 gallons of water by 100° in an hour, the unit has a 40-gallon recovery rate. Oil-fired water heaters have recovery rates as high as 120 gallons per hour. Please contact us at Bi-County Inc. to find out which water heating option is best for your home and family. We can work with you to make sure the water heater you choose has a sufficient recovery rate for your needs.
