If you have any data on prior years fuel consumption..........when using oil...........I would try to compare that usage with your current propane usage. The reason I would do that is because a gallon of #1 fuel oil has 1.5 times the BTU's as a gallon of propane. If you can't feed the furnace enough BTU's going in you sure won't get enough coming out.

I was beginning to think the same thing. Seems like the recovery time is lagging on the gas system. Looks like you're further ahead with oil cost-wise.
