Once the weather begins to warm, you likely stop buying heating oil and prepare the AC for the season. However, you’ll still use the boiler to stay warm during chilly mornings. Here, the HVAC contractors at Thomaston Oil in Litchfield County, CT, share a few reasons why heat is still important to have during the spring. 

Why You Need Heating Oil in Spring

1. Spring Can Be Cool

The spring season can have unpredictable weather. One day may be sunny, clear, and hot enough for the pool. Or, the weather can be cool, windy, and overcast. Because of this, you want to have enough heating oil available to stay warm on those chilly days. This lets you easily adjust the day-by-day changes. In fact, you may not see consistently hot weather until late in May. 

2. Hot Showers

While the days are warmer, you still may enjoy taking a daily hot shower or an occasional bath. You may not need as much heating oil as in the winter, but if you rely on it for hot water, then you’ll still need to stock up during the spring. 

3. You Should Never Completely Run Out

If you don’t plan on ordering oil because it will soon be spring, you could end up spending hundreds of dollars in repairs for the boiler and heating system by letting the tank run completely dry. To save money later and prevent costly damage, fill up the tank and stay prepared for the unexpected.
