Natural gas here, because the city has an extensive network. Previously, living with my parents a city away, the condo had oil heat.

A year and a half ago I had to replace my cast-iron boiler and (leaking) hot water heater, and so I took advantage of financing to replace them with a gas-powered tankless combo.
