Should You Keep Heating Oil in Your Tank Over Spring? What NYC Homeowners Should Know
If your home uses heating oil, spring is usually when the question comes up: once the cold weather eases, should you leave the tank as it is, top it off, or let it run low until fall?
For many homeowners in NYC, Westchester, and nearby areas, the answer is not always obvious.
NYMEX Settlement Pricing Explained: What Building Owners Are Actually Looking At
If you manage a commercial building and someone sends you a chart labeled NYMEX settlement pricing, it can feel like you are being asked to care about a trader’s screen. But that is not really what building owners are looking at.
Do Oil-Heated Homes Need Carbon Monoxide Detectors? What NYC Homeowners Should Know
Carbon monoxide detectors are important if your home uses oil heat. That does not mean oil heat is inherently unsafe or that oil-heated homes are somehow uniquely dangerous.
How to Prepare Your NYC Building for Local Law 84, 97, and Climate Compliance

Which NYC Building Energy Laws Apply to Your Building?
If you own, manage, or oversee a building in New York City, one of the easiest ways to get overwhelmed is trying to sort out which energy laws actually apply to your property.
You may hear people mention Local Law 84, Local Law 87, Local Law 88, and Local Law 97 as if they are all the same thing. They are not. They are connected, but each one covers a different part of building energy performance and compliance.
