    You can do anything if you have the money. What type of system do you have? Baseboard electric, electric boiler, electric furnace, etc?

    If by conversion you mean something minor that can be changed to your existing system, then, no. But depending on what you have you may not have to, or would want to, throw out everything.

    Let us know what your current system is (e.g. electric baseboard heat, forced air electric furnace, heat pump with backup heat strips, etc.) and we can give you some ideas.
