If the rest of your heating system appears to be in good shape but the oil burner is out of date, we can retrofit it with a modern, efficient burner. (The rule of thumb for the industry is if the efficiency of the system is less than 75% even after a tune-up, a new burner is advisable.) A new high-efficiency burner often pays for itself in just a few years through lower heating costs.

How your oil burner works

Liquid oil must be mixed with air and turned into a vapor before it can burn. When the oil reaches the burner’s nozzle, it’s broken into small droplets. This process is called atomizing. The oil burner takes the droplets, vaporizes them and then mixes them with air.
How efficiently this is done depends on the design of the burner. The newest burners contain electronic pre-purge and post-purge controls to ensure ultra-clean starts and stops. New burners also have an efficiency level that’s 5–15% higher than older ones.

Burt’s Reliable installs a range of energy-efficient oil burners, including Riello, Beckett and Carlin.
