We knew you could run cars on it, but who knew you could heat your house?

"Frank Palmarino, 51, of Drexel Hill, switched to bioheat after moving to a home with an oil tank. Prices, reliance on foreign sources, and environmental concerns pushed him to look for alternatives, he said.

Early this heating season, Palmarino said, he has had no problems. Although his delivery, in a truck running on biodiesel, smelled like popcorn, he detects no odor while the heat is on, he said. The heating system in his 4,200-square-foot, six-bedroom home required no modifications."
