As American As Bioheat Fuel

February is “Great American Pies Month” and we all know the saying “as American as apple pie.” But perhaps we should be saying “as American as Bioheat® fuel.”

That’s because Bioheat® fuel – a blend of heating oil and biodiesel, a renewable, low-carbon fuel produced domestically – helps the U.S. economy.

Here’s to American farmers!
The biodiesel component in Bioheat® fuel is produced from surplus agricultural products like plant oils (primarily soybean oil) and animal fats, making it a sustainable, environmentally-friendly fuel that supports American agriculture and farmers. Biodiesel can even be made from recycled cooking oil from French fries from your neighborhood burger joint!

No increase in food prices or disruption to our food supply!
These days, many Americans worry about the cost of food. However, the biodiesel in Bioheat® fuel is either waste or a byproduct of existing food supplies and does not rely upon growing crops to specifically produce it.

Great for our economy!
By purchasing Bioheat® fuel from Spring Brook Ice & Fuel, you’re supporting America’s domestic energy economy, keeping your money in our country, and supporting our American fuel producers. In fact, America’s biodiesel industry supports over 62,000 jobs and creates billions of dollars in economic activity every year.

Bioheat® fuel equipment: Born in the U.S.A.!
American manufacturers are at the forefront of developing boilers that can run on B100, or 100% pure biodiesel. Weil-McLain introduced B100 compatibility for some residential oil boilers, with assembly in North Carolina and casting in Indiana; and Energy Kinetics proudly manufactures B100-compatible models in Lebanon, New Jersey.

We get it: It seems like every other news story these days is about foreign oil. That’s why you can be glad that Spring Brook’s Bioheat® fuel is not only green – it’s red, white, and blue, too!
