Are there environmental concerns when burning waste oil?
Modern waste oil heaters and waste oil boilers do not produce odors or smoke. Before you purchase a waste oil heater or waste oil boiler, make sure it meets all EPA requirements. The cons: As with any heating device, there are pros and cons. Waste oil heaters can require more frequent cleaning then a traditional clean fuel oil heater. If you follow the manufacturers installation and operation instructions, you shouldnt run into problems. The money you are saving grossly outweighs the small amount of additional maintenance that may or may not be required.
