Have your oil heating system converted to electric heating today with Tran Climatisation!
Did you know that, as of December 31, 2021, it is forbidden to install a heating system in new homes, and that as of December 31, 2023, it will become impossible to replace your oil heating system with a system of the same type?
With oil prices on the rise, you may want to consider changing your heating system. Tran Climatisation can convert your oil heating system to an electric furnace.
What are the benefits of switching from oil to electricity?
Although long used to heat our homes, oil-fired heating systems release greenhouse gases that are harmful to our planet.
The good news is that today’s heating innovations can improve both our quality of life and the state of our environment. Here are some of the advantages of switching from oil to electricity:
- Ecological: Opting for electricity rather than oil is an eco-responsible gesture. The production, transport and use of heating oil are major contributors to greenhouse gas emissions. Today, electricity, a clean energy, is at your fingertips.
- Safe: Electricity is synonymous with safety. Unlike fuel oil, it eliminates the risk of gas leaks or carbon monoxide emissions. What’s more, the absence of fuel and chimneys considerably reduces the risk of fire.
- Easy to use: With all homes connected to electricity, this method of heating is extremely convenient. No need to keep an eye on your fuel tank; an electric system is always ready to go, whatever the season.
- Cost-effective: Heating with electricity is often more economical than oil. Without the costs associated with filling the tank and costly maintenance, electricity is a wise 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 running on fossil fuels in existing buildings. Repairs to furnaces over 20 years old and water heaters over 10 years old will also be prohibited.
Since the conversion service can be costly, you can subscribe to the Affordable Oil to Heat Pump Conversion Program. Our advisors will be happy to help you with your subsidy application.
