See how auto dealerships save thousands of dollars every year in heating costs by recycling their used oil onsite for heat recovery. At the same time, they eliminate the expense of used oil disposal. Utility bill savings typically pay for a new system in 24 – 36 months. With minimal maintenance, waste oil burning boilers run for decades. Radiant floor heat is cost-effective in new facilities. Unit heaters are cost-effective for new and existing auto dealerships.
