Good advice.Remember that there is 1 NG pipeline for all of New England. A few years ago during the "polar vortex" the price of NG skyrocketed. Oil went up but way less. OTOH there are rebates for switching to gas. Check out masssave.com

Or figure BTU per year of your oil system, and figure the amount of NG for the same BTUs/year. Compare that to the contractor's estimated consumption. Prices in your area will determine cost/benefit, not someone else's prices in a different part of the country. Not having to deal with oil truck, stink and gaining space where the tank was are considerations. You could set up the tank behind your garage and get deliveries of #2 for your dissels. (if they will still deliver for 250-275 gal.) Around here, they don't wanna deliver for less than 1000 gal now.
