Oil Furnaces

With the sometimes harsh winters of Maryland, it is important to have a reliable and well maintained residential boiler.  For quality boiler repair, maintenance, replacement, and installation look no further than Staton.  Contact us today for more information on all of your boiler needs.

Oil furnaces use petroleum based fuels such as diesel or kerosene to create heat. The oil furnace consists of a storage tank, an oil burner, a heat exchanger, filters and a blower motor. Oil from the tank is sprayed onto electrodes in the burner and ignited, transferring the heat to the heat exchanger. This violent type of ignition allows oil furnaces to heat your home very quickly. When the air inside the heat exchanger gets warmer it rises and pushes the cold air down into the burners. The hot air is then pushed out into your home’s ductwork by a blower fan, and return ducts bring more cold air into the furnace.

Benefits Of Oil Furnace Installation

Most oil furnaces have an average Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) of 83, meaning that 83% of the fuel they burn goes to heating your house. In some areas, traditional furnace oil can be mixed with biodiesel to reduce the harmful environmental effects even further. Oil furnaces also have a very long lifespan, usually lasting upwards of 15 to 20 years with little to no maintenance aside from periodic changing of the fuel filter. Also, oil furnaces draw fuel from a storage tank located on your property. This way you always have your own supply, even when other sources of fuel, such as natural gas or propane, are not available.

In addition to being energy efficient, oil furnaces are a very safe and clean choice for your home’s heating system. Modern oil furnaces produce very little smoke and soot and their exhaust stays in the furnace instead of being released into the atmosphere. For further increased efficiency, you can also add a two stage burner when you install an oil furnace. A two stage boiler runs more quietly, is more energy efficient and can prolong the life of your furnace.

If you want all of the efficiency of an oil furnace in your Anne Arundel County, Maryland home, call Staton Heating, Cooling & Plumbing today. We can install an oil furnace in your home so that you stay comfortable all winter long. We can also service your existing oil furnace to make sure you get as much life out of it as possible.

My technicians were Keith and Allen. From the moment they entered my home they explained in detail the work that was going to take place. They even provided photos. The price quoted was exactly what I was asked to pay except for the discount that was provided. I was never pressured to purchase additional services. I highly recommend Staton for any of your plumbing needs.

Our water stopped working on a snowy Friday night — a disaster! But only until Saturday morning, when we met master plumber Keith Turner. Keith calmly fixed everything! It’s rare to find someone like that — boy, were we lucky.

Stanton’s Matt McClure did an amazing job replacing our failed sump pump. He took the time to explain everything and ensured that along with the new pump he made adjustments to our system to prevent this issue in the future. We also appreciate Stephanie’s efforts to get a technician to us in less than 24 hours after our call. We felt the price for the repair was fair, and Matt ensured we received the current $75 coupon for plumbing work. We continue to be impressed with Stanton’s professionalism and value- Matt is a shining example of the type of service that makes Stanton our first call if we have an issue.

From the online scheduling, then Steve the technician that came out to see about the repair of our furnace everything was good. Unfortunately we got the bad news that our furnace had to be replaced. Then Derick came out to give us an estimate for the furnace replacement. Stanton really worked with us and made this purchase an easy decision. We were scheduled for a next day Saturday install. Justin came out, he didn’t have a problem with me observing him while he did his job. After he was finished, he gave us a great overview of our new furnace and all the features of it. I would highly recommend Steve, Derick, and Justin from Stanton any HVAC needs.
