Welcome to The Oil Burner Guide. My name is Wesley and my best friend John and I are the authors and founders of this website. It is designed to be three things: be educational, helpful and finally inspirational about the subject of oil burners.
I started this website a month after my best friend (also business partner) and I purchased a new waste oil boiler in order to get rid of all the excess used motor oil we were bringing in from our mobile oil change business. My best friend and I have been fascinated by the idea of being self-sufficient for years.
We talked all the time about the average American being too dependent on someone else what they need. We all expect a company or government to supply us with all our daily necessities.
Little did we know that this investment would turn out so well! Over time I started receiving comments from people asking questions about conventional oil burners (same device but having nothing to do with waste oil technology) so the blog sort of morphed from one primarily talking about alternative energy to one more general in nature.

Ah, how I love heaters that run on used motor oil! This turned out to be one of the best investments we ever made and I have created quite a few articles outlining exactly why I feel the way I do. Keep in mind that I am highly biased towards the benefits of waste oil burners but I try to present the subject as neutral as I possibly can.
