It's been 95 days and today the oil truck was here again!
45.3 gallons ($3.69/gal) is 0.477 gallons per day. Pretty close to our goal of 1/2 gallon.

In the fall, when I did the burner maintenance, I was really pleased to see how clean the filter and flame retention unit was. Running 1/2 hour a day has it's good points too.

If I can get the heat pump project running, we might end up using much less (if any) oil.
