I am currently considering a system 2000 oil or gas to replace my current oil boiler. The estimate is $14300 for oil and $13500 for Gas. That includes a hot water tank and replacing my current oil tank. I will have 2 circulators one for radial and one for 3 zones. Can I use my current chimney rather than thru wall?
My current tank is ok so i would try not replace it. Would you suggest I stay with oil?
I do not spend the winter here. Does this cost appear reasonable ?
