We are going GREEN at
our Mobil in Hicksville!
Do you know what we do with that old and
used up oil from all those oil changes?
We burn that old worn out oil to heat our building!!!
Our heater that uses only old oil from cars for fuel
That is right!
Mobil in Hicksville is saving energy and money by heating their repair shop with spent oil for all those oil changes they do on cars and trucks. This system burns efficiently and just as clean as most old heating systems in houses. Nevertheless, Bob keeps this beauty well tuned, cleaned, and serviced every heating season. So he has this heating system burning cleaner that many heating systems in houses throughout America. All in all, this system prevents old used up oil from being disposed of, thus protecting our environment. Bob and his crew installed the system themselves and have been saving money all around.

We are planning to do more energy saving steps toward being GREEN.
With help from EnergyHotwire.com we are planning to change our fluorescent fixtures in our store and shop to the most energy efficient ones made today. The photo on the left shows one type of energy saving fixtures we are reviewing. However, we are looking to go with the 4 foot long fixtures, because the 4 foot T-8 Fluorescent bulbs last twice as long as the two foot bulbs shown in the photo. The fixture will have two 4 foot long T-8 lamps with a high color index rating (no less than 84), one electronic ballast, one silver parabolic lens with square honeycomb pattern to reduce glare and reflection, and one high polish reflector behind the lamps to increase light distribution downward to the surface where the light is mostly needed. Total wattage consumption after turn-on, less than 60 watts, yet, it will give off a light level almost equal to 400 watts of light. Thank you EnergyHotwire!
