"We looked at the purchase of a Clean Burn furnace for quite a while. Because we're a recycling drop-off site, we had used oil being delivered here by the citizens of the community as well as the oil from our own street department vehicles.

Before we had the Clean Burn furnace installed, the used oil was going to a refinery. Sometimes there would be a charge for taking the oil away. We wanted a method to dispose of the used oil that was both safe and beneficial.

By investing in the Clean Burn furnace, we no longer have to pay to have our oil removed. We have also seen significant savings on our heating bills. We have 1 16' high by 60'x 120' building, and after we installed the Clean Burn furnace our heating costs dropped by 60%, from $8,000 to $3,000 per year. We paid for the furnace rather quickly!

We have had the furnace for two years, and we clean the furnace about once per year. It has worked out so well for our department that the West Lafayette Waste Water Department installed one after they saw how well ours worked.

It took three years to convince me that Clean Burn was the way to go, and it has proven to be very effective!"
