To Our Loyal Customers
The current conflict in Iran has caused a significant increase in the price of heating oil, as well as other heating fuels including natural gas and propane. Gasoline and diesel fuel prices are also being affected.
We want you to know that, like you, we are very concerned about these unwelcome price spikes. We also want to assure you that these increases are truly out of our control, and our company is not making additional profits while this conflict continues.
The increase in energy prices is once again an indication that all of us are impacted by a global economy—an economy that is driven in large part by the energy products we all rely on.
Since the conflict in Iran began, the price of crude oil on worldwide markets has increased by over 20%. Because heating oil, diesel, and gasoline are produced from crude oil, prices for these fuels are affected immediately. Unfortunately, we are forced to pass along those increases—which can occur daily—to our customers.
We understand that these prices create real pressure for households and businesses, and we are committed to being transparent about why they are happening. Our employees are working to manage these impacts as responsibly as possible while continuing to keep you and your family safe and warm.
Please join us in hoping for a swift end to this conflict so that energy prices can stabilize, and that the men and women serving in our armed forces remain safe and out of harm’s way.
Thank you for your understanding and for being a loyal customer. If you have any questions, please reach out, and we will do our best to help.
