Kerosene is a great choice for homeowners or businesses with outdoor fuel tanks because it has a lower gel point than other heating oils, so it resists freezing in subzero temperatures.

In Penobscot, Washington, Waldo and Hancock Counties, many smaller homes, mobile homes, commercial buildings and seasonal cabins use kerosene.

R. H. Foster has reliably delivered kerosene for decades, and we understand that kerosene is important for our customers in Downeast and Central Maine.

What Are the Advantages of Kerosene?

Kerosene offers a combination of efficiency, reliability, safety and versatility that’s hard to beat. Whether you’re preparing for a long, cold winter or looking for an energy-efficient solution to reduce costs, kerosene delivers performance you can count on.

High efficiency: Kerosene is renowned for its high energy output, offering one of the most efficient heating options available. It burns cleanly and effectively, which means you get more heat from every gallon than you would with other fuel sources.

Reliability in cold weather: Kerosene’s low gel point makes it exceptionally dependable in freezing temperatures, unlike some fuels that can freeze or thicken in extreme cold. Your fuel line won’t clog, and your heating system will continue to work.

Safety and stability: Kerosene is a remarkably stable fuel source, with a low risk of explosion when handled and stored properly. Because of its long shelf life, you can stock up without worrying about it degrading quickly.

Versatile applications: In addition to heating systems, kerosene can power space heaters, lamps and even stoves. This adaptability is particularly beneficial during power outages, when kerosene can provide a reliable backup for heat and light.
