I know some stuff just ask :laugh:might google approved waste oil furnaces or heat :2c:
Yes, you're a pretty smart cookie. :laugh: No doubt about that!
I'll definitely mention it to the svc. mgr. He's always looking for ways to save the company money.
He even did switched the lighting that the power company had a scam going with a few years ago. :facepalm:
We'll save all sorts of $$...someday. :laugh:

    Heating a shop in the winter when things are slow is a big expense that's why some guys like it,some places even charge an oil disposal charge then dump it in their tank :sneaky:Jacks shop is so dang hot in the winter they work in tee shirts and it's free except for maintenance and electric :)

    We offer free winter storage for lawn tractors, with free pick up and delivery, with service for spring.
    It gets slower, but them doing that has really helped keep the guys busy year round.
    When it grinds to a halt, they do some building maintenance. Scrub down the shops, general stuff.
    We needed building to store some of the golf course inventory that we keep on hand, but the building were pretty empty during the winter time, so they decided to offer the storage for lawn customers.
    They've been doing it for a few years now, and each year it grows some more.

    I googled EPA approved waste oil furnaces this is first one on page many more :)

    Waste Oil Furnaces, Waste Oil Burners, Waste Oil Heaters
    I bookmarked that. I'll definitely mention it. Thanks for bringing it up! I think it's a great idea.

    ...that's one building. That was this spring before we started delivering stuff.
    There are loads more that don't have us store their machines too.
    I'll delete those after you see them. ;)

    I might order a valve cover gasket soon from somebody but I need to get the MO# off of it first :)
    They ship UPS anywhere.
    It's just sometimes hard to get through to parts right now.
    You might have to leave your number. It sometimes gets stacked up with customers at the counter this time of year.
