Expert Oil to Electric Conversion Services From Vancouver Island, CA, Technicians
Do you currently use oil to keep your home at the ideal temperatures? Are you looking for a more cost-effective and eco-friendly way to heat your home? Our technicians are highly qualified to convert oil heating home systems to electric units.
When you’re ready to convert from oil to electric heat, we will uninstall your furnace or boiler, remove your oil tank, and install the new system. Before installing the new heat pump or mini-split, our technicians will test your home to ensure it has a 200-amp electrical service. If your home only has a 100 or 150-amp service, we can perform the necessary electrical upgrades quickly before finishing converting your oil heating home system to electric.
