I would recommend looking into a natural gas conversion. RI Energy will install the line for free up to your house. You'll have to get a plumber for the remainder of the installation. Wasn't too expensive when we converted.

No they wont, it’s a few grand. They stopped the free service line for conversion a while ago.

EDIT: going by the replies, apparently RI Energy reinstated free services for customers converting from oil to gas. As I said in another reply National Grid stopped that practice many years ago.

Under the new ownership?

Grid stopped doing it years ago for one offs and the only time you can get it for free is if they are doing main/service replacement on the street.

If you are separated from the main, that’s even more money because they have to extend the main to in front of the house
