AmeriHeat is one of the few certified fuel oil specialists still actively doing oil to gas conversion services and fuel oil work across Monroe, Wayne, and Ontario Counties. Most HVAC companies in the Rochester market stopped investing in fuel oil expertise years ago. We did not. For Fairport, Canandaigua, Palmyra, Marion, Walworth, and the rural towns across Wayne and Ontario County where fuel oil is still common, we are one of the few calls worth making.
Thousands of homes across Monroe, Ontario, and Wayne Counties still heat with fuel oil. Here is why more Rochester homeowners are making the switch to natural gas:
Lower heating costs. Natural gas is consistently cheaper per BTU than fuel oil in the Rochester area. Most homeowners see a meaningful reduction in annual heating costs after converting.
No more oil deliveries. No scheduling deliveries, no worrying about running out mid-winter, no price spikes at the worst time of year. Natural gas comes through a utility line directly to your home.
Cleaner and more efficient. Modern gas furnaces and boilers run at 95% efficiency or higher. Oil systems typically run at 80 to 85%. That gap in efficiency means less energy wasted every heating season.
Home value. Homes with natural gas heating sell faster in the Rochester market. Buyers prefer gas over oil because of lower operating costs and less maintenance.
Fewer breakdowns. Oil systems need more frequent maintenance and are more prone to issues like clogged nozzles, soot buildup, and tank problems. Gas systems are simpler and more reliable.
An oil-to-gas conversion is not just a new furnace install. It is the complete removal of the old fuel oil system and the installation of a new gas system. Here is what a full oil to gas conversion in Rochester NY includes:
Free in-home assessment of your current oil system and home heating needs
Check whether natural gas (NYSEG or RG&E) is available at your street
Remove and decommission the oil tank (above-ground tanks are simpler; underground tanks require licensed environmental contractors (we coordinate this))
Remove the old oil furnace or oil boiler
Install the new gas furnace or gas boiler
Run the new gas line and coordinate with NYSEG or RG&E for connection
Test and commission the new system
Help identify any available NYSEG, RG&E, or state rebates and incentives you qualify for
We install Heil for gas furnace replacements (authorized Heil dealer) and work with Thermo-Pride for fuel oil systems where natural gas is not available. Free written estimate before any work begins. The price, equipment, and timeline are in writing before we start.
A rochester oil to gas conversion makes financial sense when natural gas is available at the street and one or more of these apply: your oil furnace is 15 or more years old; your annual fuel oil bills have risen significantly; your oil tank is corroded or failing; you have had repeated oil furnace service calls; or you are planning to sell and buyers prefer gas. If your oil system has years of useful life left and converting does not make sense yet, we will tell you that. We are not here to sell you a conversion you do not need.
For homes that cannot convert yet (natural gas not at the street) or prefer to stay on fuel oil, AmeriHeat handles the full range of fuel oil service across Rochester and the surrounding counties. Oil furnace cleaning, oil burner nozzle replacement, oil pump service, emergency no-heat calls on oil systems, oil boiler service and repair, and oil tank leg replacement when the tank structure is failing. As certified fuel oil specialists, we carry the parts and have the training that most local HVAC companies dropped years ago.
Annual maintenance on fuel oil systems is the best way to avoid a no-heat emergency in February. A plugged nozzle, water in the tank, a corroded oil filter, or a stuck fuel pump all show up clearly on a maintenance visit but cause a full shutdown when they fail in January. The real Macedon and Palmyra jobs in the photo section above are both examples of no-heat calls that annual maintenance would have caught earlier.
Free written estimate. Price, equipment, and timeline in writing before any work begins.
For oil-to-gas conversions we install Heil gas furnaces (Heil authorized dealer) and Rheem for higher-end builds. For homes staying on fuel oil we install Thermo-Pride. We service and maintain all major oil furnace brands regardless of what we install, including Granby, Burnham, Weil-McLain, Beckett, Riello, Carlin, and Slant/Fin.

In Wayne County: Macedon, Marion, Palmyra, Walworth, Williamson, Ontario, Newark, Lyons, and Sodus. In Ontario County: Canandaigua, Victor, Farmington, Manchester, Bloomfield, and Clifton Springs.
