How to know which type of home heating oil you require
Unsure or confused about which oil to use? Don’t worry you’re not alone on that one!! Generally speaking there are two products used for home heating oil: Kerosene or Gas Oil (sometimes referred to as MGO, Green or Marked Diesel
Kerosene
Kerosene oil has an orange based color, it burns cleanly, economically and is used in most modern boiler systems, it can be used on indoor boilers, Kerosene oil is treated with anti freeze agents giving you a winter grade oil
Gas oil
Gas oil is still used in some older heating systems to fire their oil boiler. For duty reasons Gas Oil is dyed green to differentiate it from road diesel. that’s why it is often referred to as Marked Gas Oil (MGO) or Green diesel and even 35 second oil (don’t ask!!!)
