Last year, two outstanding local fuel and HVAC companies — Murray-Heutz and Blanchard’s — joined forces. By taking the best that each offered, we’ve created a new kind of fuel company — Sail Energy. We’re excited to introduce you to lots of new options and opportunities.
What’s new?
Sail Energy has a larger team and more diverse services — heating oil, kerosene and propane delivery, plus comprehensive HVAC installations (including furnaces, boilers and heat pumps), maintenance and repairs. We will have superior technology to take better care of each customer. And we’ll offer more savings opportunities than ever before.
Your Fuel. Your Comfort. Your Way.
Most importantly, we are giving you more choice about how you get your fuel and what you pay based on what matters most to you. You’ll see that in our new Comfort Bundles. The result is a company that lets you do it your way, has exceptional, dedicated employees, and comes through for you no matter what Mother Nature throws at us.
What hasn’t changed?
Our ownership. Our phenomenal people. Our commitment to our customers and our communities. Ultimately, we’re all about neighbors helping neighbors and taking care of our communities.
We’ve also updated our website with our new options. Of course, if you have any questions about what Sail Energy can do for you, don’t hesitate to contact us.
Those of you who have been Murray-Heutz customers for a while may have noticed we have a new general manager — Aaron Williamson. Steve Temple has shifted gears to his first love — running sales and marketing for the company. Aaron is a decorated U.S. Army Veteran and brings with him over 30 years of leadership roles in the U.S. and abroad. We’re proud to have him on our team.
We embrace technology to make things more convenient for our customers. Here are three options you can take advantage of to make your winter a little easier.
Enroll in these programs before winter arrives.
Our employees are the heart of our success. Here are a few of our valued team members who are dedicated to enhancing your home comfort.
Dan Christner, Delivery Driver
Dan’s day starts early, as he confirms his propane truck is filled and his route is planned out as efficiently as possible. After a cup of coffee, he hits the road to ensure our customers get the fuel they need.
For two years, Dan has delivered propane and other fuels in Turner (where he was born and raised) and across Central Maine. He appreciates the supportive team at Sail Energy.
“We always look out for each other and our customers,” he says. “When my route’s done, I pick up last-minute calls and deliveries for other drivers who’ve had delays.”
Outside working hours, Dan likes spending time with his family, especially camping with his children.
Josh Whitcomb, Service Technician
Before joining our team nearly three years ago, Josh had delivered fuel for another company and had done tree work in Central Maine for many years. At Murray-Heutz, he received the HVAC training that helped him become one of our expert service technicians. You can count on Josh to handle any heating equipment installation or service challenge.
“I love that my work is so hands-on,” he says. “My favorite thing is thinking through an HVAC problem and finding a solution.”
When he’s not working hard to ensure our customers’ warmth and safety, Josh can be found hunting, fishing and four-wheeling.
Peter Laliberte, Liquid Inventory Control Specialist
Peter, a Marine and former project manager in construction, was a delivery driver for four years before taking on his current role this year. In his current role, he ensures that Sail Energy’s bulk tanks are always filled and our trucks are ready to roll each morning. Peter also negotiates with our suppliers to get the best possible rates for our customers.
Peter has fond memories of the road, too: “Customers would come in to say hi. One even made me a blanket!”
Peter also loves four-wheeling and is an avid outdoorsman.
As winter approaches, our team is always available to assist with your fuel and home comfort equipment needs.
After nearly a century of service to folks in Central Maine, we can say without hesitation that no two households are alike. Every customer has different needs and priorities. Some want every aspect of their home comfort taken care of by one dependable, highly-skilled team. Others simply want the best possible price on high-quality fuel delivered by a company they can trust. Many fall somewhere in between.

Is your home’s oil-fired heating equipment over 15 years old with a fuel efficiency below 80%? You might be an excellent candidate to convert to a propane heating system.
Eric G. of North Monmouth discovered how much he could save on his heating costs by making the switch to propane. His aging boiler was using more and more fuel each year. So, he spoke to our energy advisors about a higher-efficiency propane boiler.
“The conversion was painless,” Eric says, recalling how their home remained comfortable even though the switch happened in January. “They kept our oil boiler running right up until the propane boiler came on. We were even able to use up the last of our heating oil.”
Now, he spends hundreds of dollars less for each fuel delivery and hasn’t lost a bit of comfort in the winter!

Your furnace or boiler is one of the priciest and most important pieces of equipment in your home. Your family’s comfort and safety depend on it. When it needs service, costs can add up quickly, especially if it breaks down after hours.
It’s important that you protect this equipment and keep it running efficiently for the longest possible lifespan. Sail Energy can help! We offer affordable protection for your heating systems with our Comfort Plans. Depending on your plan level, you’ll receive an annual tune-up, discounted or free repairs, priority service and loyalty credits. Enrolling in a service plan is also required to take advantage of our Total Comfort Bundle.
You can get more information on our service plan coverage — and enroll today — on our website.
We want every customer to have a heating oil, propane and HVAC option that matches their unique needs. It’s all about providing your fuel, your comfort, your way.
