Default Cost to replace Oil heating unit with Gas Furnace

Jim, thanks for the Quick reply. As you can see I have no idea what
I'm getting into. If you questions were directed to asking if I know
how my current system works - my answer is I don't know. This is a
house I plan on buying and it has an old Oil furnace that I want to
upgrade to a Gas one. I've been told by my agent that there is a gas
connector available in the neighbourhood as this is one of the only
homes that hasn't been upgraded.

Can someone advised if worst case there is no Ducts and we were doing
an install from scratch - What would it cost?

Thank You
Andy D.

The home is approximatley 50 yrs old.

This is a forced hot air system??
Not hot water or steam??
No Central Air??
Domestic hot water (for taps) not connected to "furnace"??
Will the tank need to be abandoned/removed??

$2000 to $5500, depending...
