Assuming that gas is available at the site, have the gas utility do an "energy audit" on the building and make a recommendation. Then get a HVAC contractor or three to make a recommendation for replacing the system. Ask them for estimates on the savings. But, the best information would likely come from an engineer who designs such systems. That would probably involve a sonsulting fee though.

You may be able to do the economic analyses yourself; but the furnace information is only one part of the heating information that you would need.
