Waste Oil Heaters
Our waste oil heaters convert used motor oil and other waste oils into efficient heating energy for industrial facilities. These UL-listed units feature patented flame control systems and non-carboning pre-heater blocks that ensure consistent performance with minimal maintenance. Commercial users benefit from 80%+ thermal efficiency and significant reduction in heating costs while effectively managing waste oil disposal.
Waste Oil Boilers
High-efficiency waste oil boilers provide heating solutions for commercial and industrial applications. Our Scotch Marine design boilers feature cast iron construction and patented combustion technology that maintains optimal burning efficiency across various fuel viscosities. These units offer reliable hot water and steam generation while eliminating waste oil disposal costs and reducing energy expenses.
Portable Heaters
Self-contained portable waste oil heaters deliver flexible heating solutions for outdoor operations and temporary facilities. These units incorporate our patented flame control system and built-in oil storage tanks for convenient operation. Designed for durability in harsh environments, they provide efficient heat output with the same reliability as our stationary models while offering mobility for changing job site requirements.
Oil Storage Tanks
Our 11-gauge steel oil storage tanks combine durable construction with space-saving design for efficient waste oil storage. Available in multiple sizes with powder-coated finishes for corrosion resistance, these tanks integrate seamlessly with heating systems while providing secure containment. Workbench-style units offer dual functionality as both storage solutions and work surfaces, optimizing shop space utilization.
Chiller Systems
Waste oil-powered absorption chillers provide efficient cooling solutions using reclaimed oil as fuel.

Sent my unit in for repair after talking to a guy named Norm. He told me to send it for repair and I did. Whole heater assembly was delivered and signed for and now I can't get a call back from any of the departments listed in their directory. Not too happy I have no heat and now no furnace. 2020. They finally pulled threw. Fixed my unit. Shipped or for free. Fixed everything. Thank you. Sorry for the hard time you guys had. Life isn't always fair. Cheers

My Company ordered a used oil burner tank from this company 2 years ago, still have not received anything and they claimed to be looking into this, but have never gotten anywhere and they won't return phone calls and have never followed up about where our product was at. Don't order anything from them, they are a waste of money. $8000.00 down the drain. BBB was also contacted in regards to this company.

As a former employee of Econo Heat I can tell you that the Omni Waste Oil Heater is by far the best product in the industry. Unfortunately due to a couple of devious employees Econo Heat fell on hard times. Hopefully in the future these two will be doing time. Looking forward to Econo Heat regaining their outstanding reputation and thriving as they did before these two tried to destroy them.

The company is EXTREMELY sketchy and I recommend not doing business with them. Our OWH-500 waste burner has not been functioning correctly and they refuse to honor the warranty that was promised to us when we purchased the unit. The company has now gone under, however the owners have now opened up under a new name "EnviroHeat". I called them to request service for waste burner and was berated and laughed at. Terrible people to do business with. Little to no customer service and they treat people like sub-human filth.

Prepaid for an oil burning furnace in April 2018 so Econo Heat could build it. Paid 4,000.00 and still have not received product. Do not do business with this company. I reported them to the BBB and their response was some lame cyber attack excuse on their company. I just want the money back that they stole from the company I work for. Tried contacting Econo Heat and their phone has been disconnected. Chalking this up as a very expensive learning lesson.

Do not buy from this company! We purchased a waste oil heater End of December 2017 for over $10,000. Heater shipped in April 2018. After trying to install the heater, we found the oil pump assembly to be missing and the chimney pack missing also. We tried until July to get the company to send us the parts because the heater will not work with out it. After numerous emails and calls, we were told lie after lie and its Sept and we still do not have our parts. Finally had to dispute with the credit card company. Still waiting on an answer. The company refuses to answer us at all now.
