Econo Heat / Omni, Inc.

Econo Heat has been in existence since 1983. Econo Heat was incorporated in 1984.

Early Econo Heat waste oil heaters utilized our patented hydraulic atomization burners. We experienced fair success, however, they required higher preheat temperatures causing carbonizing and plugging of the nozzle. Our R & D department felt the system required cleaning too frequently! They designed a system that would allow reduced oil temperature. This would reduce carbon build up and extend cleaning intervals. Incorporating that heat control technology, and adding air at the nozzle to aid the oil flow spray (atomization), we were able to reduce the oils preheat temperature and the oil pressure.

The result was the only waste oil fired, air induced, low oil pressure burner in this relatively new industry, that would not carbon the passageways of the oil preheater block. Instead of decreasing the cleaning intervals, we went a step further and eliminated it entirely.

Since the burner was a big success, Econo Heat requested that Underwriters Laboratories evaluate its products for U.L. approval. U.L. not having waste oil burning appliance standards, applied existing U.L. standards of conventional oil fired appliances. All tests were positive and U.L. listing for safety was granted in 1986. First in the industry! We set the standards, which others found difficult to conform to.

By accounting for the shortcomings of all waste oil heaters being sold, we designed a completely new combustion chamber. Then we adapted our time tested and proven burners. The result... the OMNI waste oil heater by Econo Heat, Inc. Omni has outperformed our expectations.

In 1992 we saw a strong need for an oil supply pump that could be adjusted to any gallon per hour requirement, with absolute control of the fuel flow, that could be adapted to any existing oil fired appliance. Econo Heat's R & D department set forth in developing such a system. They did and in 1993 obtained another patent. This system eliminates the need for oil flow adjustments to compensate for fuel viscosity and altitude variances.

In 1997, Econo Heat developed the world's first waste oil fired air conditioner, employing the Robur (Servel) gas fired absorption chillers - a well-established name in that industry. This was patented in 1998.

Econo Heat is experiencing continuous expansion of its dealers and distributors network worldwide. In unappointed regions, we direct market and service through local Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning companies.

The recently patented waste oil fired air conditioner compliments our waste oil fired unit heaters, boilers, pressure washers, and radiant heater. Econo Heat is encountering substantial growth in sales, and sees an extremely good future.

Econo Heat is presently selling in Europe and Japan, providing models to accommodate their voltage differences.
