Heating oil produces 138,500 British thermal units per US gallon (38.6 MJ/l) and weighs 8.2 pounds per US gallon (0.95 kg/l). Number 2 fuel oil has a flash point of 52 Â°C (126 Â°F). Most heating oil products are chemically very similar to diesel fuel used as motor fuel.
Heat output for your home heating is measured in BTU (British Thermal Unit). One ton of pellets has about 13.6 million BTU, and heating oil has about 115,000 BTU per gallon. So, one ton of pellets = approximately 120 gallons of heating oil. Consumers heating living areas directly with a pellet stove can achieve a 20-40% gain in energy efficiency*. Savings may vary by household, but is estimated here at 20%.
