Heating oil, also known as kerosene or paraffin, is a liquid petroleum product commonly used as a fuel for home heating systems. It is a clean-burning and energy-efficient fuel designed to power oil-fired boilers, furnaces, and central heating systems.
Heating oil is widely used in rural and off-grid areas where access to mains gas is limited. It is stored in a tank on the property and delivered by a fuel supplier as needed. Modern heating oil formulations are designed to minimise emissions and improve efficiency, making it a reliable and environmentally friendly choice for heating homes and businesses.
