Most oil burners need annual cleaning and maintenance to run efficiently and safely. If you use your system heavily or have an older unit, twice-yearly service might make sense. Regular maintenance prevents most emergency breakdowns and keeps your system running at peak efficiency. During service, our technicians clean the combustion chamber, replace filters, check safety controls, and tune the system for optimal fuel consumption. Skipping annual service usually leads to higher fuel bills and more frequent repairs.
Watch for these warning signs: the burner won’t start or cycles on and off frequently, you smell oil or notice black smoke from the chimney, the system makes unusual noises, or your heating bills suddenly increase. Yellow flames instead of blue also indicate problems. If you’re adjusting the thermostat more often to maintain comfort, that’s another red flag. Don’t ignore these symptoms – small problems become expensive repairs when left alone. Early intervention usually means simpler, less costly fixes.
It depends on the age, condition, and repair costs of your current system. If your oil burner is over 15-20 years old and needs major repairs, replacement often makes more financial sense. Newer systems burn fuel more efficiently and have better safety features. However, if your system is relatively young and the repair is minor, fixing it is usually the right choice. Our qualified technicians can assess your specific situation and give you honest advice about whether repair or replacement offers better long-term value.
Standard oil burner cleaning and maintenance typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on your system’s condition and age. If our technician finds issues that need immediate attention, it might take longer. During this time, we’ll clean the combustion chamber, replace filters, check all safety controls, test the ignition system, and ensure everything operates properly. Most homeowners schedule this service during shoulder seasons when they’re not relying heavily on their heating system, so any minor issues can be addressed without affecting comfort.
Yes, Dempsey Energy provides emergency oil burner repair when your heating system fails unexpectedly.
