    I burned 1/4 of a tank of oil in ten days!
    I have a new house, I built it last winter. I have a peerless boiler. The boiler seems to cycle way too much. My last 200gals lasted from 11/26 to 1/19 and now sense 1/19 (235gals filled) the gage on the top of the tank has dropped a 1/4 of the tank. Is this too much (I hope so) what can I do to figure it out.
