Hi Guys, Anyone have experience converting oil heat to gas? This is for a duplex built in 1910 in Attleboro, MA Massachusetts south of Boston --- gas already in the house currently only used for the stoves... Thank you!

Who would you recommend?

What can we expect to pay?

Other solutions?

Thanks Thanks

In addition to what has been posted, give some consideration to the fact that an old oil boiler may be 60-70% thermally efficient and, of course it runs on oil. A new gas boiler will be 80-90% efficient and run on cheaper gas.

Why do we care about the tenants cost? With gas, the tenant has more money left over to pay rent... and there are no issues with determining how much oil is in the tank when they move in and out.
