Converting 2 oil fired furnaces and bock hot water heater???

Would anyone have an opinion if I would save money in oil in the long run or right away......by getting rid of my 2 oil fired furnaces and Bock 51E and replacing with 2 First Company air handlers and a System 2000 with 80 gallon water heater????

    it depends

    But its a step in the right direction. Look at the bigger picture too. 3 burner maintenance consolidated to one. Three units to service vs one. A biggie: much less combustion air required and thats a plus for infiltration issues if there does not exist any means of fresh air. Or, if there is combustion air mechanicals they are now reduced. Oil filter stays cleaner if before 3 units drew on it. Less noise, less standby losses. No more worries about heat exchanger cracks and danger.
