Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club
OPEC+ output cuts are looking increasingly likely which is pushing Brent Crude up to $88 a barrel this Friday, despite slowing economic growth and looming recessions. Estimated delivery times are 5 to 10 working days. Delivery times are only an estimated delivery time. Please allow plenty of time for your order to be delivered.
TIP: Pre-winter health checks:- We recommend spending a few minutes this weekend giving your tank a health check before going into the winter to reduce the chance of any issues occurring in the colder months ahead that could leave you without oil: 1) Visual inspection – check your tank for any signs of bulging, sags, holes or cracks occurring; ensure the base is sturdy/adequate and that the tank doesnt overhang the base in any areas; and ensure 3 sides of the tank are accessible for safety checks, as suppliers could refuse to deliver your oil for any of these reasons. 2) Check your gauge is correct – if you have a gauge, do a manual dip test by dipping a clean stick or rod into your tank until it reaches the bottom to ensure the gauge is reading correctly against what you can see the level of the oil is against the rod or stick. We often hear of faulty gauges causing members issues as they think they have a lot more oil than they actually do. 3) Test your heating system – it is a good time to test your central heating to check it hasnt developed any gremlins over the summer. And if you havent already, its worth getting your boiler serviced to ensure it is at full health going into its peak usage months.
