Benefits of Converting From Oil to Gas
Converting from oil to gas furnaces offers many benefits:
- Cost savings: Natural gas is more cost-effective than oil, which can lead to lower monthly heating bills. Cost savings over time can offset the cost of the conversion process itself.
- Energy efficiency: Switching to a modern gas furnace helps you achieve higher efficiency ratings than oil furnaces.
- Environmental impact: Natural gas is a cleaner burning substance than oil, which produces fewer emissions and contributes to a small carbon footprint.
- Convenience and reliability: Natural gas is supplied through pipelines, eliminating the need for oil deliveries. This reduces the risk of running out of oil when you need it the most.
The Conversion Process
The oil-to-gas conversion process involves a few steps, but with help from Neffsville Heating & Cooling, we can make this process simple and easy. Our experienced technicians will provide guidance every step of the way.
Assessment & Planning
Before switching to a gas furnace, consult a licensed contractor, such as Neffsville Heating & Cooling. We will assess the feasibility of the conversion, which includes ensuring a natural gas line nearby that you can connect to. If you already use gas for some appliances, switching will be easier.
This process will also involve checking for necessary permits. After the assessment, our technician will provide a detailed cost estimate for you to review.
Removal of Existing Oil Equipment
Removing the old oil equipment is important to make room for the new gas furnace. We will carefully remove any remaining oil and dismantle the tank, furnace, and all associated components. Our team will ensure the safe disposal of your old system’s oil and parts.
Installation of Gas Lines & Equipment
Before we dig, we will mark all existing buried lines to avoid accidents and pull all necessary permits. Then, we’ll install the new gas lines from the main line to your home. Next, we’ll install the gas meter and furnace, ensuring all connections are completely sealed. All new installations follow local codes and safety standards.
System Balancing & Testing
Before leaving, we ensure the new system is balanced and thoroughly tested. This involves hydraulic balancing. We will check the radiators and ensure the heat is distributed efficiently and evenly. This will ensure optimal performance and safety.
