Comparison of Heating Costs
between the Monitor Oil Stove and other forms of heat in the Northeastern United States. The Monitor Heater
clearly beats any other heat source available.

Superior Heating. With 93% efficiency, Monitor Oil Stoves provide the most heat for the money of anything on the market.

Economical. The cost of operating a Monitor stove is lower than that of other appliances using other forms of fuel (gas, wood, propane, pellets, etc.)

Convenient. Thermostatically controlled, the Monitor Stove has an "automatic setback" feature that allows you to set it to automatically adjust the temperature for different times of the day and night.

Comfortable. A Monitor fuel oil heater delivers a comfortable, steady, fan-forced stream of warm air. They are quiet and odor-free!

Safe. Oil heat is one of the safest heating sources available, without the risk of explosion like natural gas or propane. Plus, government statistics show that natural gas users are ten times more likely to suffer from carbon monoxide poisoning than those using oil heat. Oil heat with a Monitor heater is clearly the safest, most efficient, and economical choice!

You'll Like Living with a Monitor! Monitor owners tend to think of their heater as their "prized possession." It's not hard to see why. The Monitor heater is attractive and looks good in your home. It's reliable, clean, and safe. And best of all, it produces a phenomenal amount of heat.

Here's what one Monitor owner has to say:
"The Monitor can heat up to 2000 sq ft and operates on a little over a gallon of #1 stove oil a day, making the Monitor hard to beat. Its a gravity feed system so doesn't require a pump. I have personally heated my home for the last seven years in Oregon with this model and comfortably heated 1800sq ft." - Mr. Bradley of Grants Pass, Oregon.

Easy to Use and Enjoy! Clearly Labeled Controls show time, temperature, and operating mode. The thermostatically controlled Monitor Heater maintains a steady temperature, eliminating the inefficient "swings" in temperature common to other types of heaters. And Monitor's automatic set-back feature lets it operate according to your needs at different times of the day. It can provide less heat when you're at work or sleeping; more heat when you and your family are up and about. The four-time/four-temperature programmable thermostat controls the environment of the home. Dependable, efficient climate control. The new "Economy Plus" mode minimizes "on" and "off" cycling. The result is low electrical consumption, prolonged component life, and more efficient operation during the heating season.
The Illustration below explains two of the things people love most about the Monitor Stove. One is the comfortable, steady, fan-forced flow of warm air. Kids and pets - even adults! - like to warm up in front of the monitor. The other is the sealed combustion system that totally eliminates fumes or any trace of kerosene. The sealed system also prevents the main cause of heating inefficiency: infiltration.

Because your monitor uses outside air for combustion, it does not cause any cold air to be drawn into your house. All combustion air is brought into the sealed unit from outside and all exhaust gases are expelled to the outside. No cold infiltration air, no fumes - just comfortable, affordable heat. You can see the benefit in that.

Easy Do-it-yourself installation. No ducting is required for the Monitor. No cutting holes in the roof, either! Monitor oil heaters are direct vented, requiring only a 2.5 inch hole in the wall to install the flue pipe. The flue is a "pipe within a pipe": Fresh cold outside air enters the combustion chamber through the outer pipe, and exhaust is sent outdoors through the inside pipe, preheating the incoming cold air. To achieve maximum efficiency and ease of installation, the Monitor should be located adjacent to an exterior wall of the home. The shortest flue pipe possible provides the highest efficiency. If an interior wall must be used, an extension kit for the flue will be needed. If you are handy around the home, the typical stove installation should take one person about two hours. Installation of an outside storage tank requires two people and an additional two hours or so. Professional installation is available in most areas through your local Oil Heat dealer. More detailed installation information is provided below for your convenience.
Fuel Specifications. Monitor oil heaters achieve the highest efficiency using K-1 Kerosene. Most Monitor owners prefer to use an equivalent Kerosene product: High quality, low sulpher Stove Oil (Diesel #1). It is substantially less expensive (typically less than half the price of K-1). Stove Oil remains in a liquid state even in extreme cold; it is the fuel of choice, especially in places like Alaska! Fuel is typically gravity fed, and fuel lifter pumps for 2nd floor installations are available. Our fuel lifter pumps can supply the fuel your Monitor heater needs with a lift up to 27 feet! The pump capacity is 3.17 gallons per hour on a 20 foot lift, far exceeding what the Monitor requires. Monitors use a small amount of electricity to run the fan and store the memory program.

Monitor Accessories

Storage Tanks.The Monitor 2400 should be used with at least a 220 gallon outdoor storage tank. Mid-sized homes in the Southern Oregon area typically use 30 to 45 gallons in a cold winter month (depending on size of home, insulation, temperature setting, how long you are home, how cold it is). 220 gallons can take you through at least 8 months, and up to 12 months. Legs are necessary on the tank as the bottom of the tank must be at least 16" above the floor of the stove in order to gravity-feed fuel rather than use a fuel lifter pump. The tank must be a minimum 3 feet away from the flue pipe.

Plumbing Package for connection of the storage tank to the stove includes 60ft 3/8 inch copper tubing, ball valve, flared fittings, and oil filter. Individual items are available.
Other items available include fuel lifter pumps, vent window kits, vent extension kits, and elbows. More details on these items are included in the section on Monitor Heater Installation Information.

Surefire backup power system for the Monitor 422. A back up power system utilizing RV batteries and an inverter is available to run the Monitor 422 in the event of a power failure (The system is not available for the Monitor 2400, as it requires a true sine wave to operate).. Each RV battery added to the system can provide up to 5.5 hours of operation while the power is out. The system automatically takes over when the power goes out, and recharges itself as soon as power is restored. Please note that a system is not yet available to work with the 2200 or 2400 series Monitors.
