what kind of oil does a oil heater use?
Answers:
If you are talking Home Heating Oil Furnaces, It is basically #2 Diesel Fuel. It is dyed red to signify that the road tax has not been paid on it and dyed blue to signify a higher sulfur content. Dyed fuels are not legal to use on the road.
The clear fuel sold for free standing Kerosene heaters is Kerosene, the cleaner portion of Diesel Fuel. It is close to Jet A Fuel used by the airlines.
