Between what temperatures does the pre-heater bring the oil to?

The correct range for the temperatures that the pre-heater brings the oil to is between 160° and 180°F. This specific temperature range is crucial for ensuring optimal oil viscosity, which is important for efficient combustion in oil burners. Heating the oil to this range facilitates better atomization when the oil is injected into the combustion chamber, leading to more complete burning and increased efficiency of the burner system.

Moreover, maintaining the oil within this temperature range helps prevent issues such as incomplete combustion or the formation of carbon deposits, both of which can negatively impact the performance of the burner and ultimately lead to higher emissions and reduced efficiency. Properly pre-heated oil ensures that the system operates safely and effectively, contributing to the overall reliability of the heating equipment.
