Oil to Gas Conversion Services

Convert Oil Heat to Gas Heating

Oil heat prices have risen steadily, and converting to natural gas is an option many homeowners pursue. The process involves utility applications, permits, new equipment, and oil tank removal, managed in the right sequence. RooterMan specializes in oil to gas heating conversions to get you upgraded, usually within two weeks!

With our experience, knowledge, and training we can answer your questions, discuss available options, and take care of every step of the process.

Credits and Rebates May be Available

Many municipalities offer incentives for gas conversion through energy credit and rebates. Even the Internal Revenue Service allows tax credit, in some cases, for increasing energy efficiency. Check with your local town, state, and tax preparer to determine whether such perks apply to your situation, or, ask us for assistance.

Let Us Handle All the Details

Our technician will file a gas service application with your local provider. To start the installation, RooterMan brings gas to your home from the nearest utility company site, which involves digging a ditch to place pipes that carry the gas to your home.

Your RooterMan technician knows exactly how long the pipe (and therefore the ditch) will need to be, will determine the cost of digging and rigging the conduit, and oversee the process. The heating system in your home requires professional installation and we have the expertise to handle the job seamlessly.

Do You Know? We Do.

The hot water heating system installation and connection is in addition to the heating and cooling system? We will take care of your total system needs. We provide consultation and estimates to meet your needs. Does your old oil tank need professional removal? RooterMan can oversee those details as well.

If the tank is below ground, environmental issues may arise. When the tank is unearthed, if rust or fractures are detected, the soil surrounding the tank will require removal. For ground tank removal, or removing a tank from your home, experts are bound by state and local laws.

Questions to Ask Before Converting to Gas

A gas conversion involves more moving parts than most homeowners expect going in. Getting answers to the right questions before the project starts keeps the timeline clean and the costs predictable. Before starting a conversion, these questions help set expectations and avoid surprises:

Is Natural Gas Available at Your Property: Confirm your address is in a natural gas service area first. Propane is an alternative if natural gas is not available.
What Happens to the Existing Oil Tank: Above-ground tanks are removed during conversion. Below-ground tanks require permits and environmental testing depending on the tank's condition.
Are Rebates Available in Your Area: Many utilities and municipalities offer incentives for oil to gas conversions. Checking before the project starts can reduce the upfront cost.
What Equipment Needs Replacing: Conversions include more than the furnace. Boilers, water heaters, and oil-fired appliances connected to the old system should all be part of the scope.

Getting clear on these questions before the project begins reduces delays and keeps the conversion on schedule. We cover all of it in the first consultation.
