Stove oil, also known as heating oil or furnace oil, is a type of fuel oil specifically designed for use in oil-fired stoves, furnaces, and boilers. It is a refined petroleum product that serves as an efficient and reliable source of heat, particularly in regions where natural gas or electric heating is not available or practical.
Uses:
- Home Heating: Stove oil is commonly used in residential heating systems, including oil-fired stoves, furnaces, and boilers, to provide warmth during colder months.
- Commercial Heating: It is also used in commercial and industrial settings for space heating and process heating applications.
- Portable Heaters: Some portable heating units, such as those used in workshops or remote cabins, operate on stove oil.
