Pallett: your heating and cooling experts and energy savings partner in VA
We can help you use less fuel and reduce your heating oil bills
The new heating oil is an environmentally friendly way to heat your home and hot water. New energy-efficient equipment burns low sulfur fuel 95% cleaner than in 1970 – well within EPA standards. And there have been advances in how heating oil is refined as well. In fact, over the last 30 years, the carbon footprint of heating oil has been reduced by 40%.
|
| Like any commodity, heating oil is subject to fluctuations in price. Some of this is caused by political instability and economic factors. But much of it is also caused by rampant oil price speculation — a situation that has drawn the attention of government regulators. |
| While we cannot control the price of oil, there are things we can do to make your heating bill easier to manage. |
| What can you do about high energy bills? |
| As your full service home comfort provider, we’d like to suggest some steps you can take to get more from your energy dollar: |
| |
- Sign up for our Budget Payment Plan to lower your winter heating bills and make convenient monthly payments.
- Make sure your heating system is operating at peak efficiency by having a professional tune-up, which is FREE when you choose Pallett Heating and Cooling service plan.
- Upgrade to a new, high-efficiency heating system.
- Insulate your home, especially windows and doors, with weather stripping and caulking to keep cold drafts out.
- Reduce fuel consumption with a programmable thermostat. When used correctly, they can reduce your heating costs by 10% or more.
- Keep baseboards and vents clear of rugs and furniture so you don't block heat output.
- Check out more energy-saving tips you can use all year round.

 Budget Payment Plan |
| Our Budget Payment Plan makes your winter heating bills more manageable! With today’s energy prices, many of our customers are experiencing very high fuel bills. But customers who are enrolled in our Budget Payment Plan pay equal monthly installments. That’s because our Budget Payment Plan lets you spread out your fuel payments over 11 months, leaving you without the hassle of large, unexpected bills during the winter months. |
| Here’s what we do: we review your fuel use over the past few winters and estimate your expected fuel use. We multiply the number of gallons by our estimated market price, and divide this number by 11 months to arrive at you monthly payment amount. You’ll make equal, predictable monthly payments. |
| A typical homeowner in our area spends $275 each month from December through March and another $175 for the rest of the year. If it is really cold and you get two deliveries in a month, you could pay more than $550 in that month. With our monthly payment plan, that same homeowner would only pay about $116 a month. |
| |
 |
| |
| Each delivery you receive will be posted to your account at our Charge Price per gallon. With credit approval you’ll have 30 days to pay without finance charges. If you have a credit balance at the end of the plan, you can either request a refund or have that amount applied toward the next year’s budget to lower your monthly payment. |
| Interested in the Pallett Budget Payment Plan? It’s easy, just fill out this form. |

| Automatic Delivery |
| When you’re on automatic delivery, we manage your fuel deliveries so you don’t have to. It’s just one less thing you have to worry about. Because you’re on our “radar screen,” we can be proactive and get fuel in your tank in plenty of time when a big storm is coming our way. |
| Automatic delivery prevents run-outs. It is easy, convenient and FREE! |
