As Britain Begins to Freeze, Demand for Heating Oil Rises

Now that we are halfway through January, the temperatures are dropping and many places in the UK are being affected by snow, the demand for heating oil will be rising to deal with the cold weather. Make sure you monitor the oil level of your tank to ensure you don’t run out. For an excellent way to monitor your oil levels you can purchase the Watchman Sonic from Commercial Fuel Solutions to keep an eye on your tank from indoors and will be able to see when your tank is getting low and needs refilling.
	With the demand of heating oil rising, also comes the risk of oil theft. Make sure you don’t fall victim to heating oil theft by taking preventative measures to deter thieves. Concealing your tank through the use of bushes, fences or even more security such as motion sensitive lights are an affordable but effective method to scare off thieves. A Watchman Alarm is able to monitor if the oil level in your tank has dropped dramatically within a short space of time (indicating a leak or theft) and the Alarm will alert you of this rapid decrease. So don’t risk it this winter, protect your heating oil.
