For years I lived with an oil furnace.
I wasn’t a fan of it.
I had to house an on site oil tank. It took up a bunch of room and was ugly. Another con of an oil furnace is that you are dependent on oil deliveries. If you don’t get a delivery, miss one, or the weather doesn’t permit it, you are screwed. The flame burns hotter for oil, so it is more effective, but I didn’t like it. I started researching trying to see what else I could do for heating. Luckily I called my local Springfield, MO heating business to ask about my oil furnace. The Springfield HVAC contractor told me that converting oil to gas is quite simple. I can make the change with minimal fuss and mess to my home. I signed up for it right away. The worst thing was setting up the gas hookups and flue system. After that was installed, it was all good. I got the oil tank removed and freed up some space. Now I run my household with a gas operated furnace. This is way better. Gas is cheaper and readily available. It is also a more common type of heating device. So anytime I need heating service, repairs, or just a check up, it is really nice that any Springfield HVAC dealership can handle the job. I way prefer the look of the gas powered furnace as well. I can’t believe I waited this long to do the oil to gas conversion. I haven’t even noticed the heater is not as warm either. It can handle our Missouri weather fine.
