How Often Should an Oil Furnace Be Serviced?
Service your oil furnace at least once a year at the beginning of the cool weather season. As your furnace ages, increase your service to twice a year — once in the fall and once in the spring. When you need a knowledgeable HVAC technician to service your oil furnace, look to the experts at Waldrop to get the job done right.
How Long Should an Oil-Burning Furnace Last?
Oil-burning furnaces last about 20 to 25 years. They offer many benefits, including quick and even heat disbursement and less dry air than electric heat sources. Homeowners also have greater peace of mind knowing they have direct access to their fuel supply when other sources like propane and natural gas aren’t available.
An oil furnace still needs maintenance. Handle oil furnace repairs quickly to ensure the full-service life of your furnace and stay warm during the damp Greenville winters.

Oil Furnace FAQs
What maintenance does an oil furnace need?
Oil furnaces require annual maintenance to function efficiently. We recommend scheduling an oil furnace tune-up at least once before each heating season (around September) to ensure optimal performance and safety.
How long do oil furnaces last?
Most oil furnaces last between 20 and 25 years with consistent care. However, you may need to replace your unit sooner if:
- You’ve experienced frequent repair requests in recent years
- Heating costs have suddenly increased despite stable usage behavior
- The repair cost is 50% or more of the cost to replace the furnace
Regular maintenance is critical for extending the life of an oil furnace. If you have more questions or need professional assistance, feel free to contact your trusted HVAC service provider!
What heating oil do I need for my furnace?
Many residential oil furnaces run on Number 2 Diesel, but the specific oil type depends on your furnace’s make and model. Refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations or consult our team for assistance in selecting the right oil.
How do I check the volume of fuel left in my heating oil tank?
The method depends on the location of your oil tank. Most above-ground tanks have a tank gauge that indicates the estimated fuel volume. In the case of below-ground tanks you can use a measuring stick or tape measure. Insert it into the tank to determine the number of gallons based on the measurement in inches.
