UNITIL Corporation announced that the Wentworth Home, an assisted living facility in Dover, has transitioned from an oil-fired boiler to a high-efficiency natural gas system. The upgrade, conducted in collaboration with UNITIL, is expected to reduce the facility’s annual fuel costs by more than $50,000 and lower its carbon footprint by an estimated 40%. The new system, which replaced the use of approximately 19,000 gallons of heating oil annually, features a condensing boiler with a 95% efficiency rating. The switch is anticipated to also provide lower maintenance requirements and improved indoor air quality for residents.
