Dear Friends,
What an extraordinary winter we had — particularly that brutal stretch of superfrigid temperatures in late December and early January and the nor’easters in March. During the cold snap, we kept all hands on deck, with seven trucks hitting the road for three straight weeks — our only day off was Christmas Day. I even jumped into a truck myself, to help meet the heavy demand for heating fuel. Our new propane division proved up to the task of staying current with deliveries and all service-related issues.
We hope we proved that no one comes through better than our team, no matter how rough the conditions. Throughout the weeks of record cold, not one automatic delivery customer ran out of fuel! All current customers who called either received a delivery within a day or got service the same day they lost their heat. We even delivered fuel to about 200 other people, whose companies were unable to help them. Those folks were so impressed that they switched their service to us!
Here at Jennings, we love what we do for a living, and caring for our customers is a big part of that. We take pride in the effort, attention and goodwill that our people put into their jobs.
As you prepare for the welcome warm weather, remember that we can ease you through the hot months with a cooling tune-up or a new A/C system. We look forward to delivering the best service possible.
Warmly,
Jeffrey Jennings, Co-owner
P.S. Congratulations to the winners of our Nintendo Switch contest: John Hogan, David Green, Brandon Gilbert, Brian Sendrowski and Brian Leyhane!

Surveys have shown that while propane and heating oil customers have exceptionally high levels of satisfaction with the service they receive, most don’t realize all the ways their home fuel can enhance their comfort and save them money.
Technology has brought great improvements in efficiency that have reduced annual fuel consumption by as much as 40%, saving oil heat consumers a lot of money on fuel. And because new systems burn cleanly and don’t need as much fuel, they do not pose a hazard to the environment.
Additionally, sulfur levels have been reduced dramatically, improving heating system efficiency and cleanliness and reducing emissions. This reformulated fuel also eliminates the source of most equipment breakdowns. The advent of heating oil with low sulfur content has paved the way for the next generation of compact, super-efficient boilers and furnaces.
Many gallons of heating oil now include Bioheat®, a blend of heating oil and renewable materials like vegetable oils. Because Bioheat integrates seamlessly with all heating oil systems, no changes to your heating system are necessary!
According to a comprehensive report conducted by Brookhaven National Laboratory and presented to Congress by the National Oilheat Research Alliance (NORA), biofuel blends containing 20% or more Bioheat produce lower greenhouse gas emissions than natural gas!
CLEANER than electricity
Because propane is nontoxic and doesn’t pose a threat to soil and water, (above or below ground), it is not regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency.
The average propane-powered home reduces carbon dioxide emissions by nearly 30% compared with all-electric homes.
Direct use of propane for space heating, water heating, cooking and drying clothes reduces greenhouse gas emissions up to 50%.
MORE EFFICIENT than electricity
Propane is more efficient than electricity when evaluating the total energy consumed (this includes the energy used in the extraction, production, processing and transportation of the fuel to the point of use).
Most high-efficiency propane furnaces feature two-stage gas burners and variable-speed motors to deliver all the warm air you need. That’s why, on the coldest of nights, propane-heated homes are much warmer than those that rely solely on electric heat.
Oil heat is efficient and more economical than ever! The latest oil heating systems are small, smart and super-efficient and can save you, on average, about 30% on your annual heating costs. Here are six more quick points about oil heat efficiency.

“Recently, I woke up on a Sunday morning to a 46-degree house. I called the emergency line and Chris from Jennings got right back to me. He was in New Milford and said he would come right down to check things out and fill my tank to hold me over till Monday. He was on time, very friendly and professional. We had a great talk about my system. I LOVE Jennings Oil and would highly recommend them to anyone in the community!” — Wendy Van B.
