Cost of Oil to Gas Conversion in Connecticut

Serving Homes & Businesses in New Haven & Fairfield Counties

Even though studies conclude that the cost of using natural gas as a heating fuel is more affordable than oil, homeowners with oil-fired systems are still concerned about the oil to gas conversion cost. While the cost of conversion from oil to gas represents a significant initial investment, there are distinct short and long-term advantages to converting now. With the current cost of oil roughly doubling the cost of natural gas, exploring an oil to gas conversion with a Tri-City Heating and Cooling expert and considering the advantages of converting can make the decision to switch easier.

Call (203) 303-5700 to learn more about the cost of oil to gas conversion in Connecticut. Our gas line techs are here to help.

Oil to Gas Conversion Is Cost-Effective

Because no two homes are alike, there is no fixed charge for making the conversion. The unique conditions present in each home mean different heating options with varying costs will be required. Our experts will evaluate your home to determine the most efficient heating solution for your situation. In most cases, high-efficiency systems are recommended as they will save consumers the most in future fuel costs. The oil to gas conversion cost for the most efficient heating appliances installed will generally range from $5,000 to $10,000, but that cost is reduced significantly by available financing and rebate incentives.

Anticipating Additional Costs

At Tri-City Heating and Cooling, we can assess the overall condition of all system components when evaluating a home’s heating needs.

There are several items that may factor in to the cost of an oil to gas conversion, including:

  • A gas line from the meter to the gas furnace: The cost will depend entirely on the distance to the meter and if there is anything interfering with the installation.
  • Ductwork improvements: Some older ducts may be too inefficient to allow homeowners to enjoy the full benefits of their new high-efficiency system. Upgrades may be recommended to reduce system heat loss and improve airflow efficiency.
  • Chimney construction or improvement: Older homes may not have a code-compliant chimney installed. Upgrades to meet current building regulations may be required.
  • A quality, programmable thermostat: While typical thermostats are often sufficient to meet a family’s needs, modern thermostats allow more flexibility and can provide additional fuel savings over time. Our team can discuss your options and explain the available thermostats and their advantages.

Of course, each situation is different and must be evaluated individually. Our heating professionals work with homeowners to identify both existing and potential future needs with an eye toward providing long-term savings. The cost of oil to gas conversion will vary from one home to another, but the net result is that homeowners will save money when compared to using oil.

Available Financing Options

The oil to gas conversion cost also depends on how consumers elect to finance the project. While some homeowners may opt to pay the entire cost at the time of installation, most will find it beneficial to take advantage of financing programs currently available. Those programs offer low-interest financing to make converting to natural gas affordable. Before deciding to get by for another winter with an oil-fired heating system, consider the advantages of converting now using one of the convenient financing programs offered.
