Oil Purchase:

A. Automatic Delivery; Fuel Purchase: You agree to purchase 100% of your fuel requirements from Daniels Energy on Automatic Delivery for the term of this plan; If automatic delivery is suspended, or there is evidence that the location is receiving fuel deliveries from another supplier, Daniels Energy may terminate this contract for breach of contract, and liquidated damages will be charged Per Term I.  Upon expiration of this plan, the account will remain active and will NOT be taken off Automatic Delivery. If a Plan is not renewed, fuel deliveries will be billed at our posted retail rate.  You will remain on Automatic Delivery at the expiration of this Plan unless you notify Daniels Energy in writing, by certified letter or fax.

For our automatic delivery customers, we use your previous consumption as a way to gauge your delivery frequency.  In the event that you usage changes, i.e. (more people living in your home, working from home, a new baby, or an addition to the size of your home),  we will need a call to notify us of this change in your usage patterns.  If you are new to Daniels, please monitor your tank for the first heating season and notify us if your tank gauge should go below a ¼ tank.  If your house is unoccupied or unattended for more than 24 hours, then you are responsible to have the house checked in freezing weather every 24 hours.  Daniels is not responsible for damage from a freeze up of plumbing pipes, and or heating equipment or consequential damages,  in the event your heating system shuts down, or your fuel tank runs dry.  In the event of a supply shortage, Daniels reserves the right to allocate or ration available fuel supplies amongst its customers at their own discretion.  Daniels is not responsible for circumstances beyond their control for any reason.  Our mission is to keep our customers comfortable and safe to the best of our ability,  and to provide the best supply and services available to our customers all year long.

A minimum annual purchase of 500 gallons is required to be eligible for this plan.
