Why timing matters
- Cold snaps can burn fuel faster than normal.
- Storms may reduce route flexibility and increase delays.
- Running fully out can require priming/restart service.
Monthly planning checklist
- 1 Check tank level weekly during winter.
- 2 Review forecast for long cold stretches.
- 3 Place your order before urgency builds.
- 4 Keep driveway and fill access clear.
Tudor Tip
Check your tank level indicator at the same time each week during the cold winter months. Letting the tank drop below 1/4 can stir up sediment from the bottom, which can clog filters and burner nozzles.
