What Are the Benefits of Fuel Additives?

November 22, 2024

Fuel additives are becoming increasingly popular for homeowners and businesses looking to get the most out of their heating systems. Here at Northern Oil, we offer a range of high-quality fuel additives designed to optimise fuel performance, reduce emissions, and protect equipment.

Here, we explore the key benefits of fuel additives and why they’re a smart choice for effective fuel management.


Enhanced Fuel Efficiency

One of the main benefits of fuel additives is their ability to improve fuel efficiency. These additives work by promoting a cleaner, more complete burn, which allows heating systems to operate using less fuel to produce the same amount of energy. This means lower fuel costs as less oil is required and extended fuel reserves, which can be particularly beneficial during colder months when heating demands are higher.

By using fuel additives from Northern Oil, you can maximise the efficiency of your oil and save money over time, making it a worthwhile investment for those managing fuel expenses carefully.


Reduced Equipment Maintenance

Fuel additives also play a crucial role in maintaining the health of your heating equipment. Over time, heating systems can experience issues like sludge build-up, corrosion, and clogged fuel lines, all of which can hinder performance and lead to costly repairs. With the help of fuel additives sludge build-up is reduced, corrosion is prevented, and system performance is optimised.

This will overall help to minimise the risk of blockages, help to extend the life of equipment and keep heating systems running smoothly. For those who rely on consistent heating, this improved equipment reliability offers peace of mind and helps avoid unexpected maintenance bills.

One example we have available is Anti-Bug, an additive that helps to prevent contamination associated with microbiological growth, keeping your systems in the best condition possible.


Ideal for High Fuel Consumption

For businesses or homes with significant heating requirements, fuel additives can make a substantial difference in operational efficiency. High fuel consumption can quickly lead to build-ups and equipment wear, which can be costly and time-consuming to manage. With fuel additives:

●     Costs associated with high fuel consumption are managed through improved efficiency.

●     Performance and lifespan of equipment are maximised, making fuel usage more predictable and controlled.

These benefits make fuel additives an attractive solution for businesses needing effective fuel management to ensure smooth operations.

The UK typically sees spells of adverse weather, particularly during the winter months. From storms to snow and ice or even periods of heavy rainfall, all of these conditions can pose problems to heating oil deliveries. Regardless of whether you live in a rural or urban area, having home heating oil delivered during bad weather can be challenging. Fortunately, however, there are ways that you can prepare for such eventualities to ensure you have a consistent supply of heating oil to hand. How Does Bad Weather Impact Heating Oil Delivery?  Home heating oil deliveries can be impacted in multiple ways during times of extreme weather conditions: Driver challenges: Snow, heavy rainfall and high winds can all make it tough for drivers to safely deliver fuel. Hazards as a result of extreme weather, like fallen trees and flooding, can also lead to access difficulties. Higher fuel prices: Demands for heating oil tend to rapidly increase during the colder months, which can drive the price up. Supply chain interruptions: Poor weather conditions can also impact manufacturing and deliveries higher up the supply chain. For example, low temperatures can cause issues for oil refineries. How to Prepare for Bad Weather Whilst Living Off-Grid While you may well run into issues with having home heating oil delivered, especially if you live rurally, there are several ways that you can plan ahead to ensure that your supply doesn’t run out in the event of a delivery failure. Order Ahead of Winter Schedule your oil delivery for early autumn to avoid running out of fuel in the worst of the cold months. Not only will you save money by ordering early when demand isn’t as high, you’ll also guarantee yourself a cosy winter period. Install an Oil Monitor In order to avoid running out of oil unexpectedly and needing an emergency delivery during bad weather, consider having an oil level monitor installed. Monitors like the Magnus Monitor are simply attached to the top of your storage tank and monitored remotely - all at no extra cost to you. This allows you and your supplier to keep an eye on the amount of fuel left in your tank and schedule a delivery in good time. Trust Us as Your Domestic Oil Supplier Whether you require home or industrial heating oil, with Northern Oil you can rest assured that you’ll never have to worry about adverse weather impacting your supply. Our FuelSmart system really is the simplest, most reliable and hassle-free way to ensure that you always have plenty of heating oil in your tank. We remotely monitor your tank using the most up-to-date, cutting edge telemetric technology.
