    here are a couple of sites that may have suggestions for you.
    This Old House magazine (and TV show) is a wealth of information, and a must-read for people like us who own older homes.
    magazines.com has TOH susbscriptions for less than $1 per issue.

    Definitely a gas boiler. We love our radiators– you won’t find a more even or efficient heat. One thing to check, though, is your windows and doors to make sure you’re not leaking heat outside.

    you get more btu out of oil than gas aboutt 40,000. peerless makes a good boiler. With a large victorian house you want some thing that keeps up. don’t forget to flush the low water cut off wall the boiler is running
