Ultra 35 – The Commercial Heating Oil Alternative

Heating oil costs are still on the rise, and with that comes the ever-growing demand for suitable alternatives that don’t break the bank. People are seeking efficiency and affordability in their fuel, especially for something as crucial as heating. 

From swimming pools to factories, many commercial businesses require heating oil to run for daily operations and the comfort of workers. Ultra 35 was created to meet the commercial world’s diverse needs. This fuel is a revolutionary solution that’s kinder to wallets and gets the job done just as well as gas oil. 

In this post, we’ll explore what Ultra 35 is, its benefits, and why it stands as an excellent replacement for gas oil.

Understanding Ultra 35

What is Ultra 35 fuel? Also known as commercial furnace heating oil and Ultra-Burn 35, this fuel is a direct alternative to traditional gas oil. Its many benefits are its cost-effectiveness, its compatibility with existing equipment, and how it seamlessly integrates into heating systems without modifications needed.

Versatility and applications

A huge number of applications utilise Ultra 35 because of its versatility. This includes commercial boilers, furnaces and heaters, and industrial dryers for reducing the moisture in materials such as sawdust and grain. Numerous industries use this equipment, including agriculture, food processing, healthcare, and manufacturing.

Industrial heating oil (IHO) is used in a wide range of sectors and businesses, so Ultra 35 is a fantastic solution to save money while not compromising on quality and efficiency.

Benefits and features

High-quality virgin-grade distillate makes up the composition of Ultra 35. Designed to offer the best performance as a heating oil rather than work as both a heating oil and off-road engine oil. 

Its winter-grade specification and extended storage life are just some of the benefits of this commercial heating oil. Ultra 35 also works as a lubricant for valves and pumps, increasing your boiler’s lifespan. This means reduced maintenance for your filters, saving you money on boiler and tank servicing.

100% mixable with other gas oils, the switch to Ultra 35 does not require you to drain fuel tanks before adding the new fuel. Compatible with all existing equipment that uses gas oil, there’s no need to replace, modify or adjust anything when transitioning fuels.

Ultra 35 is more cost-effective than gas oil because of several factors:

• It burns slower, meaning it’s longer lasting and you’ll be paying for fewer fuel deliveries.
• It is winter-grade and has long-term storage stability, allowing for storing all year round.
• It has zero bio content. It won’t attract any microbial growth or water that will require numerous polishing services and tank cleans.

Compliance

Ultra 35 is compliant with industry standards, including Class D gas oil certification and the BS 2869 accreditation. 

The class D gas oil certification, or BS EN590, is a classification for gas oil and ensures that fuel oil meets the correct performance and quality standards. This gives compatibility, reliability, and efficiency assurance for people using this fuel in their equipment and machinery.

The BS 2869 accreditation is a British Standard that ensures fuel oils meet specific quality and performance standards, covering environmental impact, reliability and efficiency.

Sustainability

What makes Ultra 35 more sustainable than its gas oil alternative?

Efficient burning

Ultra 35 burns slower and more efficiently, reducing carbon emissions compared to burning traditional red diesel gas oil.

Zero bio content

Because of its zero bio content, Ultra 35 has long-term stability and won’t attract water or microbial contaminants. This means far fewer tank cleans and fuel polishes.

Zero bio content also means the environmental impact associated with producing and using biofuels is reduced. With biofuel feedstocks, there is always the potential for land-use conflicts and deforestation. Because Ultra 35 is bio-free, it avoids this conflict.

Extended storage life

Because of this industrial furnace oil’s long life, you can buy it in bulk and store it for longer without worrying about degradation. This means fewer deliveries, so fewer trucks on the road to create pollution.

Standard compliance

As Ultra 35 meets industry accreditations and standards, it officially adheres to environmental requirements. By meeting standards such as BS 2869 and BS EN590 for environmental impact, emissions and safety, this fuel makes a great sustainable heating fuel to use.
