Take advantage of our SmartPay program to manage your home heating bills in small monthly payments rather than larger bills immediately after deliveries. Additionally, our Cap Price Program allows you to pay the daily oil price, never exceed the maximum ceiling price, and receive unlimited downside protection. 

 

Bioheat, what is it?

 

Bioheat is a blend of traditional home heating oil with biodiesel made from renewable sources such as plant oils, animal fats, recycled cooking oil, and algae. Bioheat is environmentally friendly, burns cleaner and more efficiently than conventional oil, and can be used in conjunction with your existing equipment.

 

Grades of Bioheat - Biodiesel is commonly found in blends of 5%, 25%, and up to 100%. These blends are referred to as B5, B25, and B100 where B25 is 25% biodiesel and 75% conventional heating oil. Santoro Oil currently delivers a blend of B10 when delivering bioheat to our customers. A minimum blend of B10 is now required in all retail sales in Rhode Island to help reduce our carbon emissions. 

 

Bioheat is safe to use with your current equipment configuration and offers benefits such as…

 

• A cleaner heating system
• Extended equipment life
• Decreased internal tank corrosion
• Increased efficiency
• Lower consumption costs

 

Know the grade of the Bioheat you’re getting. With every delivery of Bioheat from Santoro Oil, you can rest easy knowing that you’re receiving the highest grade of heating oil mixed to the proper specifications. Your delivery ticket indicates key information about your delivery such as the type of fuel, number of gallons delivered, and the price paid per gallon. The type of fuel used in your delivery can be found directly under the delivery address on your delivery ticket.

Propane is a reliable, energy-efficient fuel source that we can deliver straight to your home.

Propane Tank Monitoring Service - Propane appliances can vary greatly in terms of fuel consumption: fireplaces, pool heaters, space heaters, log sets, and generators have a high degree of variance in terms of propane usage. Installing a Propane Tank Monitor is a safe and effective solution so you no longer have to worry about running out of fuel. If you are interested in learning more about a propane tank monitor or potentially want to have one installed on your propane tank, refer to the “Propane” page under the “Fuel Delivery” tab on our website. 

 

Upon visiting the “Propane” page on our website, you can also find some useful propane safety tips including: general propane safety, propane safety in winter, and propane safety videos for users to access.
