As the nights grow longer and the first frosts appear, businesses across the country are gearing up for winter. To help you stay prepared for cold snaps, we’ve compiled our top tips to ensure your business stays fuelled and ready to save on costs. Whether it’s keeping your team warm in the office, preventing frozen pipes, or avoiding disruptions to manufacturing processes, industrial heating oils are essential during the colder winter months.
Choose the right fuels
As temperatures drop, selecting the right fuel is essential to keeping your business running smoothly. Whether you’re maintaining operations or heating the office, using fuels designed for stability in varying conditions ensures a hassle-free winter.
Now is the perfect time to reassess your fuel choices. Therma35, an industrial heating oil that meets BS2869 Class D standards for heating applications, is a cost-effective alternative. It works seamlessly with a wide range of commercial boilers, dryers, and heaters—delivering reliable heating output and performance without compromise.
Don't run on empty
Heating buildings, processing, manufacturing, and boiling are energy-intensive processes that require large amounts of fuel. Therma35 industrial heating oil not only burns more slowly than conventional gas oil but also provides several additional benefits. With its long-term storage stability, winter-grade formulation, and zero bio content, it can be purchased in bulk and stored year-round without risk of spoilage, interruptions, or waxing—unlike red diesel. To ensure a steady supply during cold snaps, keep a close eye on your fuel levels.
