I`m considering purchasing a house in Ontario that has a 3-year-young oil tank (in the basement, not buried or outdoors), an old boiler, and radiant baseboards (like radiators, not electric). There are no ducts, so switching to forced air natural gas isn`t feasible. But I see online that there are gas-fired boilers that can be used with rads, so I`m assuming they can also be used with radiant baseboards. Does anyone have experience with this?
I don`t know if making the switch would be cost-effective in the long-term or not, but I`ve heard that insurance companies insist that oil tanks be replaced every 15 years.
Thanks for your thoughts.
