Last 6 months: 0 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Shelton Oil says on its website that it has served the families and businesses of Fairfield County for years, offering heating oil delivery and air conditioning service. A 2023 customer said the company got their oil boiler back up and running within hours of the call. A 2022 customer said they had used Shelton Oil for about 20 years with never a problem. A 2024 customer called it a family-owned company in Shelton, Ct. and said they would recommend it for heating needs. A 2025 customer who had used Shelton Oil for prior boiler tune-ups said its earliest appointment was about two months out, and that after another company damaged the boiler, Shelton Oil refused to do any work because they had used another company. A 2021 customer said an air valve replacement on their furnace did not fix the problem and called it very expensive; that customer said another company then fixed it. **Strengths:** - Quick boiler repair — a 2023 customer said the boiler ran again within hours - Long-time service — a 2022 customer said they used it about 20 years **Concerns:** - A refused repair — a 2025 customer said it would not work after another company - A long wait — a 2025 customer said the earliest tune-up was two months out - An unfixed air valve — a 2021 customer said the replacement did not fix it ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Says it serves the families and businesses of Fairfield County with heating oil delivery and air conditioning service _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](http://www.sheltonoilandheatingct.com) — “About (self-reported, verbatim): SMALL ENOUGH TO KNOW YOU, LARGE ENOUGH TO SERVE YOU Shelton Oil has been serving the families and businesse…” - A 2023 customer said the company got their oil boiler running within hours of the call _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUNodktTdzVnRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x7a3336e4eec677f4!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgIChvKSw5gE%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ Shelton Oil and Gas was able to get my oil boiler back up and running within hours of my call all for a great price.
