Go to the nearest gas station and pick up a couple bottles of gasline
antifreeze and dump them in your oil tank. It's an alcohol that mixes
with the water and prevents it from freezing. Your furnace can burn
it just fine. Do it whenever you get the tank filled.


Actually..no..
Alcohol absorbs water..and no, the furnace cant burn it just fine.
IF he was going to do this, and not simply use the tanks water drain plug he
would use a diesel mix....

BUT.....


Unless the furnace is stuttering, or tripping the control box for the CAD,
there isnt any water in the tank to worry about. The filter assembly will
separate the water, and trap it, and depending on his temps, its not water
freezing in the lines, but the fuel is waxing.
