When it comes to keeping your Upstate New York home running efficiently through all four seasons, two energy sources stand out: Bioheat® fuel and propane. Both options deliver powerful performance, lower emissions, and long-term savings—all while supporting renewable, American-made energy.
Bioheat® Fuel: Renewable Heating for a Cleaner Future
Bioheat® is a blend of ultra-low sulfur heating oil and renewable biodiesel made from soybean oil, recycled cooking oil, or other sustainable feedstocks. It’s a cleaner-burning alternative that’s already powering thousands of homes across the Capital Region.
Why homeowners are switching to Bioheat®:
✅ Reduced Carbon Footprint: Lower greenhouse gas emissions without changing your current oil heating system.
✅ Renewable & Domestic: Made in America, supporting U.S. farmers and renewable industries.
✅ Compatible with Existing Equipment: No costly conversions—Bioheat® works seamlessly with most oil-burning systems.
✅ Reliable Performance: Delivers the same warmth and comfort Upstate families depend on.

Propane benefits include:
⚡ High Efficiency: Propane appliances often outperform electric models with lower operating costs.
🌿 Clean Energy: Propane produces fewer greenhouse gases than electricity generated from fossil fuels.
🔋 Reliable Backup Power: With propane-powered Generac® generators, your home stays safe and comfortable even when the grid goes down.
🏠 Flexible Applications: Perfect for rural homes, new builds, and mixed-fuel systems.
When you combine efficiency with reliability, propane becomes one of the smartest energy solutions for any Upstate household.
