Oil Heating Price Surge in NY and Across the Nation

Tuckahoe, NY, January 26, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Oil providers in New York have noticed a sharp increase in the wholesale price for heating oil this month, and things only seem to be getting worse. Innovative Air Solutions, experts in heating and cooling and energy solutions, want local homeowners to be prepared with efficient systems in their homes.

The Journal News reports that the wholesale price for heating oil in the first week of January 2011 was $2.69. The wholesale price at the beginning of January 2012 was $3.22-about 20 percent more than last winter. New York's average home heating oil price per gallon for December 2011 was $3.93, which was up 60 cents from last year. And there's no relief from price increases in sight.

The best solution is for homeowners to make their homes more energy efficient, says Owner Michael Carlo of Innovative Air Solutions. This means installing more insulation and new windows, cleaning air ducts, servicing or buying new HVAC units, and more. Even something as simple as swapping light bulbs can make a difference. Homeowners in New York that make energy saving upgrades can receive a $600 mail-in rebate from Con Edison.

"We are certified in discovering and repairing the biggest energy and comfort problems in homes," said Carlo. "Stop being a victim of Middle Eastern politics and cold weather and get control of your heating bills again."
