The EPA states that generators may burn used oil on-site for energy recovery provided that:
1. The business burns only used oil generated by itself or received from household do-it-yourself used oil generators
2. The air or water heater is designed to have a maximum capacity of not more than 500,000 BTU input per hour
3. The combustion gases from the heater are vented to the outside air
