Northern Oil Company • October 24, 2023

WHAT IS IHO?

Industrial heating oil is a type of fuel oil specifically designed for use in industrial heating applications. It is a high-viscosity oil that is usually used in boilers, furnaces and other industrial heating systems which have previously been fuelled using Gas Oil or diesel. Industrial heating oil has a higher flash point and burning point than other types of fuel oils. It is also designed to be more stable and resistant to sludge and corrosion.


WHO CAN USE IHO?

Industrial heating oil is used by a variety of industries and businesses, including manufacturing, chemical processing, and food production. It is also used by many commercial and industrial buildings to heat their premises. Some of the most common users of industrial heating oil are hospitals, universities, factories, and government buildings.


WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF IHO?

1. Increased efficiency: Industrial heating oil is more efficient than other heating sources, as it has a higher energy content, meaning it can provide more heat per unit of fuel.

2. Cost-effective: Industrial heating oil is more cost-effective than other fuels, as it is relatively inexpensive to purchase and requires less maintenance.

3. Reduced emissions: Industrial heating oil releases fewer emissions than other fuels, making it an environmentally friendly option.

4. Versatility: Industrial heating oil is suitable for a range of different applications, from large commercial and industrial spaces to smaller residential buildings.

5. Reliable: Industrial heating oil is a reliable and consistent source of heat, as it is easily accessible and can be stored for long periods of time.
