With expert equipment installations and service for your air conditioning and heating systems, you can count on FSi for your energy needs all year long.
In this newsletter, we discuss the MA Clean Heat Standard and the action you must take right now to ensure your voice is heard regarding your energy choice. At FSi, we care deeply for the environment and believe that propane and Bioheat® fuel should be a part of the Clean Energy solution. We’ve been delivering Bioheat® fuel since 2006, and we continue to improve our low carbon fuels every year. Additionally, we are excited to announce that we’ll begin delivering renewable propane this fall, which is even cleaner than traditional propane. Be sure to let your state representatives know that you want propane and Bioheat® fuel to be a part of the MA Clean Heat Standard.
This season, we want to extend the warmest thanks to our loyal customers. Your continued support of FSi Oil and Propane means we can help protect your home, and the environment, with the responsiveness, dedication, and professionalism you deserve year after year.

Summer Energy-Saving Tips
- Get a Programmable Thermostat: Switching from a manual to a programmable thermostat can help you save on your energy bills. Set the indoor temperature higher during periods when you’re not home or at night to conserve energy.
- Seal Drafts: Make sure you caulk those cracks and air leaks around your doorways and windows to keep the hot air from coming in (and prevent cool air from escaping). Doing so can save you on your annual energy costs!
- Schedule an A/C Tune-Up: Annual maintenance on your A/C system can do wonders for your energy bills. Help your system run at its maximum efficiency, keeping your home cool with less energy.
- Get Grilling: Cooking in your oven can throw off quite a bit of extra heat. Opt to cook your family dinner outside on a propane grill instead.
