Heating Oil
After you arrive, you may choose to live off post. You should be aware that the majority of the homes use oil as their heating source.
As you go house hunting, be sure to check if the home you are looking at uses oil or not. Assess your needs. Check your tank specifications, including the size of the tank and the full capacity. You will need this to calculate how much oil you will need for your home. Usually, an oil tank can carry anywhere from a thousand liters to a thousand and a half liters. Next, visually assess how much oil you have left. Some heating oil tanks come with calibrations or gauges that will allow you to take accurate measurements of how much oil is left. Deduct this from the
total oil capacity of the tank, and you will have the exact number of liters of heating oil that you need. Next, work on the paperwork for the heating oil. You will need to get the Value Added Tax (VAT) paperwork, which will allow you to purchase the oil without paying for the heating oil taxes from Germany. Here is a website with more information about using and purchasing oil for your home. http://www.ramstein.af.mil/library/factsheets/factsheet.asp?id=13948
