## The honest read

Yankee Oil is a heating-oil company that says it delivers oil in Mansfield, CT and surrounding communities, to both residential and commercial customers, and that it has been in business 40 years.

A recent customer said the 400-gallon vertical tank they bought would not fit through their hatchway, so Rob, the head of the service department, had men lift the old tanks while he rebuilt their stands and raised them off the floor; that customer said it saved them several thousand dollars. A recent customer had a nearly 30-year-old oil tank removed and two ROTH tanks installed, twinned together, and said the quote was the only one of those compared that clearly outlined all costs and details upfront.

A 2026 customer who was low on oil right before a big snowstorm said the delivery arrived on a Sunday, sooner than expected, and thanked Curtis. A 2024 customer said that in a big snowstorm years earlier, with the tank on empty, they called and the company came and helped.

A 2026 customer said Rob Lathrop and his crew installed a new propane furnace on Christmas Eve, arriving at 7am and finishing by 1pm. A 2026 customer said a new Peerless boiler and an indirect water heating system replaced a 30-year-old Burnham furnace that was leaking from the heating coil. A 2023 customer said that when their boiler failed on a -4 degree weekend, a tech was there within a couple of hours and stayed until 9 PM to get them heat and hot water.

A recent customer, who had used American Fuel Oil before Yankee Oil took over, said their oil delivery was refused over a gauge reading after the office asked how they knew they needed 150 gallons. A 2023 customer said the company would not come out for two days to a heat pump it had installed for the previous owner because they were not an established customer. A 2023 customer said their account was not closed after they called, and an automatic delivery came that they were asked to pay for.

**Strengths:**
- Oil tank fix — a recent customer said rebuilt stands saved several thousand dollars
- Clear upfront quote — a recent customer said all costs were outlined upfront
- Storm delivery — a 2026 customer said oil arrived on a Sunday
- Holiday furnace install — a 2026 customer said it was done on Christmas Eve

**Concerns:**
- Gauge reading dispute — a recent customer said an oil delivery was refused
- New-customer wait — a 2023 customer was told two days for no heat
- Account closure — a 2023 customer was asked to pay for an unwanted delivery
