Your heating bills drop immediately. Converting from oil to natural gas can save you hundreds of dollars per season, and today’s gas systems operate at up to 95% efficiency. No more scheduling oil deliveries or worrying about running out of fuel in the middle of winter.
You’ll breathe easier too. Natural gas burns cleaner than oil, producing fewer emissions and improving your indoor air quality. There are no odors, no soot, and no large tank taking up valuable basement space.
Gas networks and Mass Save offer rebate programs up to $4,000 and interest-free loans to help offset conversion costs. Most homeowners see the savings pay for the conversion within just a few years.
We’ve served Norwell and the South Shore since 2007, originally focusing on new construction before expanding into the service and repair work that homeowners actually need. We know this area’s heating challenges because we live here too.
Our approach is simple: upfront pricing, no surprises, and work that lasts. Every oil to gas conversion comes with a 1-year labor warranty because we stand behind what we do. We’re available 24/7 for emergencies because heating problems don’t wait for business hours.
You’re not just getting a conversion – you’re getting local expertise from people who understand Norwell’s older homes and the specific requirements for safe, efficient gas installations in this area.
We start with a comprehensive assessment of your current oil system and your home’s gas availability. We’ll determine if there’s gas service on your street and complete the necessary paperwork to bring gas from the street to your home, finding the best entry point based on current gas codes.
We determine the appropriate type and size of heating equipment through a comprehensive site visit. We handle all gas and plumbing permits, schedule inspections, and arrange for your old oil tank and equipment removal. We ensure proper electrical connections and help you contact the gas company to install your new meter once inspections are complete.
We provide all rebate paperwork to ensure you apply for every rebate you’re eligible for. The entire process typically takes 4-6 weeks from start to finish, and we coordinate everything so you’re never without heat.

Your conversion includes complete removal of your old oil system, professional installation of new gas equipment, and all necessary permits and inspections. We handle the gas line installation, new furnace or boiler setup, and proper venting systems that meet Massachusetts codes.
In Norwell’s older homes, we often encounter unique challenges like tight basement spaces or existing ductwork that needs modification. We’ve handled these situations hundreds of times and know exactly how to work around them efficiently. Our certified gas heating plumbers are licensed and knowledgeable in high-efficiency heating systems.
Massachusetts residents have access to significant rebates through gas networks and Mass Save programs. We’ll help you navigate these programs and ensure you receive every dollar you’re entitled to. Many Norwell homeowners qualify for rebates that cover a substantial portion of their conversion costs, making the switch even more affordable.
Most homeowners save hundreds of dollars per heating season after converting from oil to natural gas. You can expect savings of up to 30% on your monthly heating costs due to natural gas being consistently less expensive than heating oil and the higher efficiency of modern gas equipment.
The exact savings depend on your home’s size, current oil usage, and the efficiency of your new gas system. Today’s gas heating systems achieve efficiencies over 95%, compared to older oil systems that typically run at 80-85% efficiency. Often the savings pay for your conversion in just a few years.
Gas networks and Mass Save offer rebate programs up to $4,000 and interest-free loans to help homeowners make the switch. The rebate amount depends on factors like your current system’s age and the efficiency of your new equipment.
Gas Network offers rebates up to $1,000 for general conversions, or up to $4,000 for heating systems over 30 years old. These programs are specifically designed to encourage homeowners to switch from oil to cleaner, more efficient natural gas. We handle all the rebate paperwork and ensure you receive every dollar you qualify for.
The complete process typically takes four to six weeks from start to finish, depending on permit approvals and whether you need new gas service brought to your home. If you already have gas service for other appliances, the timeline can be shorter.
The conversion process involves removing your existing oil equipment, installing the gas connection and new equipment, and balancing your heating system to ensure even heat distribution. We coordinate all aspects including permits, inspections, and gas company coordination so you’re never left without heat during the transition.
Natural gas is actually more reliable than oil for Massachusetts winters. Gas heating provides a continuous fuel supply that eliminates the need for on-site fuel storage and deliveries, so you’ll never run out of fuel during a storm when delivery trucks can’t get through.
Gas is piped directly to your home, providing an endless supply. Unlike oil systems that can have fuel delivery delays or tank issues, natural gas flows continuously through underground pipelines that aren’t affected by weather conditions. Gas heating systems maintain high energy efficiency ratings up to 96% even in extreme cold.
We arrange for complete removal of your oil tank and old heating equipment, and coordinate asbestos remediation if required. This includes safely draining any remaining oil, disconnecting all lines, and properly disposing of the tank according to Massachusetts environmental regulations.
Underground tanks require special handling and soil testing to ensure no contamination has occurred. Above-ground tanks are typically easier to remove but still require proper disposal. We handle all aspects of the removal process and ensure your basement or utility area is clean and ready for your new gas equipment installation.
We ensure that your new heating equipment is properly wired by a licensed electrician as part of the conversion process. Most modern gas heating systems require standard 120V electrical connections for controls, ignition, and circulation pumps.
If your home has older electrical service, we’ll assess whether any upgrades are needed during our initial evaluation. In most cases, the electrical requirements for gas heating are actually less demanding than oil systems, since there’s no need for oil pumps or other high-power components. We coordinate with qualified electricians to ensure all electrical work meets Massachusetts codes and your new system operates safely and efficiently.
