Replace your oil boiler with an electric heating system with Tran Climatisation! 

As of December 31, 2021, the installation of oil-fired boilers in new construction is strictly prohibited. Also, from December 31, 2023, it will also be forbidden to replace your existing oil-fired boiler with a newer model.

With the rising price of oil and the new measures in effect, perhaps it’s time to replace your oil-fired boiler with a more efficient, energy-saving electric heating system. Tran Climatisation can replace your oil-fired boiler, whatever the make or model, with a more efficient electric heating system.

What are the benefits of replacing your oil-fired boiler with an electric heater?

Although oil-fired boilers have long been considered an efficient heating appliance, they release large quantities of greenhouse gases that seriously harm the environment. What’s more, they pose a danger of carbon monoxide poisoning, explosion and oil leaks.

Here are the benefits of converting your oil-fired boiler to an electric heating system:

• Ecological: Choosing electricity for your heating is an eco-responsible gesture. The production, transportation and use of heating oil are major contributors to greenhouse gas emissions. Electricity, a clean energy source, is at your fingertips.

• Safe: Unlike heating oil, electricity eliminates the risk of gas leaks, oil tank leaks or carbon monoxide emissions. What’s more, the absence of fuel and chimneys considerably reduces the risk of fire and poisoning.

• Easy to use: With all homes connected to electricity, this mode of heating is extremely convenient. You won’t need to keep an eye on your tank; an electric system is always ready to go, whatever the season.

• Economical: Electric heating is proven to be more economical than oil. Without the costs associated with filling the tank and costly maintenance, electricity is an ideal choice. What’s more, electric systems generally last longer than their oil-fired counterparts.

• Compliance: Government and local regulations are evolving regarding the use of fuel oil. As of December 31, 2023, it will be forbidden to install or replace an oil-fired heating system with one that runs on fossil fuels in existing buildings. Finally, it will be impossible for Tran Climatisation to repair furnaces over 20 years old and water heaters over 10 years old after this date.

Since the conversion service can be costly, you can subscribe to the Oil to Heat Pump Affordability Program. Our advisors will be happy to help you with your grant application.
