No, a properly functioning oil tank should not produce odors. If you notice an oil smell in the building it may be a sign that there is a problem with your tank, the piping or your heating appliance. You should contact Acme Fuel or Capital Heating & Cooling about this.
Home heating oil tanks last a long time. They are made of high-grade steel, fiberglass, or sometimes double wall tanks of plastic and steel, and can last for decades. Maintenance of the tanks and inspections prolong the life of the tank. Give Acme Fuel a call to discuss the potential need to replace your tank. We can provide advice on how to evaluate the tank, and replacement options.
The short answer is yes, propane can technically freeze at -306.4 degrees Fahrenheit (or -188 degrees Celsius). But what is more likely to happen than your propane tank freezing is that your propane can no longer vaporize. When the temperature gets below -44 degrees Fahrenheit (-42.2222 degrees Celsius) the propane will no longer boil. You can fix it by getting a propane tank heater. This being said, don’t worry too much about extreme cold since Little Rock, Washington doesn’t typically get colder than 35 degrees Fahrenheit. And in hot weather conditions you should simply avoid leaving your propane tank in direct sunlight as the hotter the tank gets, the more pressure there will be inside.

Acme Fuel is a local, 3rd generation, family owned business that’s committed to providing its customers the best products and services, while also being good stewards of our community and the environment.
Many other companies will use a technique where they sell their customers “teaser rates”. This is when a company will provide a false quote to their customers only to later add surprise charges and fees. Even worse, these same companies will artificially lower their propane cost in the summer when you need propane the least then turn around and raise the prices again in the winter, when you need your propane the most. Acme Fuel does not believe in playing dishonest pricing games with their Littlerock customers. That is why our fuel prices only change when the wholesale price changes. That way our customers always know what to expect from our prices! Check out the link below to see what our current propane prices are!

Acme Fuel has never added any delivery charges to our orders. We only charge for the price of the fuel and the sales tax!

Our team at Acme understands that large purchases of fuel or propane can be a lot to handle. This is why we created Annual Propane Budget Plans available for all our Littlerock customers.

Effective April 1, 2022, all credit/debit card payments for Fast Fuel invoices will incur a 3% surcharge to cover the costs of the credit/debit card fees charged to us.
We have resisted doing this, but with the increasing fees and the increasing price of fuel, we cannot absorb the costs any longer.
We encourage you to sign up for email statements and ACH billing. Not only do you avoid the fee, but we will give you an additional 5 cent per gallon DISCOUNT on fuel purchases made at our stations.
It is with both joy and sadness that I am announcing to you that we have sold the assets of our propane and heating oil division to Blue Star Gas.
My dad, Tom, and I worked very hard to find the right "fit" for both our employees and you, our valued customers. After a long vetting process, we determined that Blue Star is about as perfect of a fit as we could have asked for!
Like us, Blue Star is a third-generation family-owned business with the same values that we share of taking care of our customers and employees. In addition, they have the size and resources to provide many more services than we can offer. I know that they will take as good or even better care of you than we did!
On behalf of my dad and myself, I would like to thank you for being loyal customers for all these years!
Sincerely,
Christophe Allen
As of today (12/10/21), Acme Fuel has sold its assets to Blue Star Gas and we are pleased to welcome ACME Fuel customers to the Blue Star Gas family.
Blue Star Gas has operated in the Puget Sound area for 10 years out of our location in Tukwila. We are enjoying our 83rd year in business and I am the third generation to run the company. Blue Star Gas started in 1938 on the north coast of California, and currently serve 15 unique markets throughout California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, and Utah.
We are grateful to the Allen family for allowing us this opportunity. We recognize the incredible reputation ACME Fuel has in the community and with its customers.
Rest assured there will be no disruption to your service as a result of this transition. I am pleased to share that all the ACME drivers have accepted our offer of employment, as well as much of the personnel in the Olympia office, which will remain open.
I would like to personally thank you for the opportunity to be your propane supplier and look forward to adding your relationship to thousands we have served for many decades.
Sincerely,
Jeff Stewart
President
