Oil to Gas Conversion in 2 Family House 2 High Efficiency Alpine Boilers
Ken Roberts of Absolute Precision Plumbing Heating & Cooling walks through an oil to gas conversion in a 2 family house in Beverly, MA. More info on this project at absoluteprecisionplumbing.com/oil-to-gas-conversion-beverly-ma/
Three large oil tanks were removed from the basement which not only allowed for the wall mounting of 2 new high efficiency Alpine boilers but it freed up a lot of space in the basement.
Since the old oil system was providing hot water Ken set up a temporary system, using 5 gallon buckets of oil, to keep the 2 boilers running so the families would have hot water through the course of the project.
The first floor apartment of the house had gas, but just for cooking. The gas company came and installed a second meter.
The two existing hot water tanks were in good condition and have lifetime warranties so there was no need to replace them.
The project went smoothly, inspections were done, all old equipment and debris was removed. The households are now enjoying safe efficient gas heat. They will enjoy it even more in the heating seasons when they fully realize the savings on their energy bills as a result of converting from oil to gas.

    Doesn't sound like an upgrade to me. I prefer oil. An upgrade to me would be to get a new oil fired boiler. Then you have 3 choices for hot water. A tankless coil inside the boiler. An oil fired water heater. Or an indirect water heater. Definitely get rid of that electric thing. Oil burns hotter and 3X faster than gas and 5X faster than electric. It's way more efficient.

I'm sure people are going to start stealing heating oil for vehicles. Crazy times we live in.

    • @Speedaholics
      @Speedaholics ปีที่แล้ว

      @TheRabidPossum You just sound like an oil fan boy. Yes oil does burn warmer and does heat quicker. But do the math on total cost....a gallon of oil is around $5 right now and produces 137,000 BTU. A therm of natural gas is less than $2 and produces around 100,000 BTU....so 37% more heat from a unit of oil vs unit of gas, but 150% more cost? With oil you also have added maintenance / cleaning costs, insurance costs due to leaking tank. Oh yeah and oil can't fuel a dryer, range / oven, fireplace, grill, etc....if all you have is oil, then you're stuck with electricity for those appliances, which is horribly inefficient, as you mentioned. And "then you have 3 choices for hot water" you have all of those options with gas too....in fact you have more (tankless on-demand heater). There are a few advantages to oil (as mentioned it does get hotter quicker) but aside from that and sometimes longer life expectancy due to beefier components of a boiler, furnace, etc (if maintained well) gas just blows oil out of the water. Just mathematical facts

    • @TheRabidPosum
      @TheRabidPosum ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Speedaholics if you're house already has gas then gas is the better option. Are you going to have a plumber run a gas line for a range, dryer, grill, fireplace, then throw out your electric appliances and buy new gas ones? That would cost a fortune. Or have a gas line run to your house from the street for heat and hot water alone when you have a perfectly good oil tank already there? That seems like a waste of money too. I would rather invest in New oil fired equipment. Modern oil burners burn very clean and efficient as long as they are maintained. Nothing wrong with oil heat. If I were to buy a house I would keep whatever fuel the house was equipped with and upgrade the system rather than converting. But that's just my opinion.

    Not a fan of pressed fittings on a manifold. What is the pipe size of the manifold 1” or 1.25”? If you add up all the gpm flow of all those circulator loops they will far exceed the flow rate of even 1.25” pipe. That can result in noise and pipe erosion from high velocity water. Should be 1.5” with that many zones.
