thinking of converting from oil to gas in the near future.

what is the best way to convert from oil to gas and what companies can do it (is phoenix still the best?).

for anyone who has made the switch what is the approx cost and are they glad they changed after the conversion was complete?

many thanks for any comments.

    Can't give you figures but you're best to keep an eye out for offers from Phoenix to get the installation price down. I think we got free connection from street to house last winter. As for other companies, if memory serves you can switch to Firmus (providing you have a monthly payment plan and not pay-as-you-go) almost as soon as Phoenix is in. Firmus prices are a lot cheaper but I can't be more specific - sorry.

    Hi my husband is a gas installer and Phoenix are doing an offer of £400 cashback. So if for example your price for conversion is £2400 (Worcester 28i Greenstar) you only pay £2000 and the installer claims the cash back. Also finance options are available from 12-48 months. If your interested in a free no obligation quote give me a wee ring on Monday 02893 355050.
