Oil-to-Gas Conversion in Queens, NY

We start out with an in-depth assessment of your existing heating system setup, performed by one of our heating specialists. The inspection allows our team to provide you with a detailed scope of work and upfront pricing, so you'll know everything you need to make a decision on making the switch from oil to gas.

To install or modify gas piping in Queens, permits must be applied for and obtained before starting any work. We handle all coordination with NYC DEP to ensure this step happens in a timely manner.

If you already have gas coming into your home, your service must be shut off by your utility company before any work is started. If you’re currently using gas for your water heater, we will install a temporary electric hot water heater that will provide your domestic hot water supply for the duration of the conversion.

We will remove and safely dispose of your old heating equipment, including your oil tank and fuel lines. While our team is in your home, we treat it with respect, performing all work neatly and carefully. We’ll gladly wear shoe covers, when requested, to protect your flooring.

If you don’t have gas service coming into your home, the gas utility company will need to run a line from the street main to your home. We coordinate this process, but keep in mind, if this step is required, the gas conversion process can take anywhere from 2 – 6 months to complete.

If you already have gas in your home (for hot water and/or cooking), our plumbers may need to be upgrade your service for the additional gas supply needed for your boiler.

Rest assured, all gas work is safely and correctly installed by our qualified plumbers according to NYC code.

We'll do the proper calculation to find the gas equipment that best fits your home's heating needs. You can expect impeccable workmanship performed by Ranshaw’s top-notch installation team.

We may need to install a new chimney liner, compatible with your new gas heating system, if the condition of your chimney is not adequate.

Before leaving, we will test your system for safety and proper operation. Our lead mechanic will give clear instructions on how to use and maintain your new system. Lastly, our team will clean up, leaving things the way they were before we arrived.

Once the conversion is completed, we’ll arrange appointments with the gas utility company and NYC DOB to perform all required inspections.

After all inspections are performed and we receive the proper sign-offs, the utility company will turn on your gas supply, and you can begin using your new equipment.

We stand behind our technicians and their workmanship. We're so confident in our team's skills that we offer:

• 1-year labor warranty. Should any issues arise with the installation within the first year, we will handle the necessary labor for repairs at no additional cost.
• 100% satisfaction guarantee. We aim to exceed your expectations. If our service doesn't leave you completely satisfied, we're committed to making it right.
