Heating oil

Thanks to its own storage in the tank, the heat supply remains independent of network infrastructures.

In combination with condensing boiler technology, high efficiency levels can be achieved.

Existing systems can continue to be used and can be supplemented with renewable components if required.

The order time and delivery quantity can be individually controlled.

Oil heating systems are technically mature and established in many buildings.

EL heating oil generally complies with DIN 51603-1, which defines requirements for composition, purity and combustion behavior.

• Calorific value: approx. 10 kWh per liter
• Density: approx. 0.82-0.86 kg/l at 15 °C
• Flash point: above 55 °C (safe transportation and storage)
• Sulphur content: low sulphur for reduced emissions

Heating oil consists of hydrocarbons obtained during the refining of crude oil. Depending on the product variant, additives can be added to optimize storage stability or combustion behavior.

• Suitable for all common oil heating systems
• Compatible with modern condensing boiler technology
• Additivated premium qualities reduce deposits in the system

Modern oil heating systems work very efficiently, especially with condensing technology, as the energy contained in the flue gas is used in addition to the actual combustion heat. This enables high levels of efficiency to be achieved. In well-coordinated systems, the use of energy can be significantly optimized without changing the existing infrastructure.

The right heating oil quality depends on your heating system, the storage conditions and your usage behavior. Standard heating oil is suitable for most systems. Premium variants offer additional benefits such as improved combustion or fewer deposits. For special requirements, such as in winter, a specially formulated grade may be useful.

Heating oil is stored directly at the customer's premises in a tank and is therefore available at all times for the heat supply. This form of storage enables independent use without a continuous connection to the grid. The prerequisite is a suitable tank and compliance with the technical and safety requirements for storage and operation.

The main difference lies in the additives. While standard heating oil ensures standard-compliant basic operation, premium heating oil contains additives that optimize combustion behavior and can reduce deposits in the system. This can have a positive effect on the efficiency of the system and the storage stability of the heating oil.

Yes, heating oil can be combined well with renewable energies such as solar thermal energy. In this case, for example, the solar system takes over part of the hot water preparation or heating support. This allows the use of heating oil to be reduced while the existing heating system can continue to be used.

Once the order has been placed, the delivery is planned on the basis of your desired quantity and an agreed date. A trained driver brings the heating oil to you in a suitable tanker and fills the tank professionally. The delivery is clean, safe and takes all technical requirements into account.

The flow behavior of heating oil can change at low temperatures. This is why there are special winter grades that remain stable even in frosty conditions. These are particularly suitable for systems with external or unprotected tanks and ensure that the supply works reliably even in cold conditions.
