Are you located near a new natural gas line? Has your oil-guzzling furnace or boiler finally started to show its age? If so, it’s time you considered switching fuel types. Natural gas is less expensive and likely to remain that way. It’s also “greener” and not prone to supply chain issues. That means it’s the sensible choice for people in the Jefferson and Sparta area. For more information on fuel conversion in your neighborhood, read on.
Around half of the country already uses natural gas to heat their home while less than 10% use oil. Electricity (34%) and propane (6%) make up the majority of what’s left. Though more expensive, these are the only options available locally. You’ll find the highest number of oil-burning furnaces in the Northeast. This prevalence stems from two factors: proximity to the coast and age. First, oil barges typically land on the East coast and there’s infrastructure in place to distribute it from there. Second, many homes in the Jefferson and Sparta area were constructed back when oil was the cheapest thing on the market.
Unlike oil, which gets brought to you by truck, natural gas is piped into your home. That means making the switch requires you to be in an area with natural gas lines. Even in areas that are oil-dominated—where fuel systems account for around a third of all heating systems—you’re likely to have access to natural gas lines. If one’s not available in your area, consider petitioning your local utility company.
Though the costs of converting can be high, there are numerous benefits to switching from oil to natural gas. These benefits not only pad your wallet and stop you from running out of heat, but also help America towards fuel independence. For a quick list of benefits, see below:
