A boiler that is limping through the winter costs more every month it stays. When it is time to replace it, the job isn't just swapping a box. The new boiler has to be sized for the house, the radiators and the chimney, or you trade an old problem for a new one.
Call and describe what it is doing. We'll tell you which one makes sense, including when the answer is repair the one you have.
(845) 853-6012An oversized boiler short-cycles, wastes fuel and wears out early. An undersized one never keeps up in January. We look at the radiation in the house, the insulation, the windows and how the place is actually used, then match the boiler and its controls to that. You get the sizing in writing with the estimate so you can see what we based it on.
Our crew is certified on Bosch and Navien equipment. That matters more than it sounds: a manufacturer can decline a warranty claim on equipment installed by someone who was never certified on it. Because we install and service what we're certified on, the warranty on the equipment we put in your house is one you can actually use.
Removal and disposal of the old unit, the new boiler set and connected, controls and zone valves checked and brought up to spec, combustion tested and set, and the whole thing run and confirmed with you before we leave. Permits are handled where the town requires one. We'll tell you before the work starts, not after.
Not every house should get another boiler. If you're on oil and the ducting or the layout allows it, a cold-climate heat pump may be the better long-term move, and there are NYS Clean Heat rebates that can change the math considerably. We'll price both and tell you which one we would put in our own house. If the boiler is the right answer, we'll say that too.
Like-for-like swap when the old unit is the right size and the piping is sound.
One unit for heat and domestic hot water where the house suits it.
Switching fuel, including the gas line and the venting the new unit needs.
Annual service, no-heat calls and repairs on the boiler you already have.
We install and service this equipment. If you already own a different brand, we still repair and service it. Call the office and describe what you have.
We run emergency crews for plumbing, heating, septic and water treatment. Call and a dispatcher confirms your arrival window. We won't tell you an hour we can't keep.
A boiler is a major purchase and it usually fails at the worst possible time. We offer financing that spreads the cost over time. Ask for the payment terms with your estimate so you can compare them against the repair.

Most residential boiler replacements are a one to two day job once the equipment is on site. A conversion that involves new gas piping, a new vent or re-piping the near-boiler header takes longer. You get the expected time in the estimate.
Usually not. Cast iron radiators and baseboard are durable and often outlast several boilers. We check them during the estimate and tell you if any of them are a problem before quoting a replacement.
It can, but we won't put a percentage on it before we have looked at your house and your fuel bills. A modern boiler with proper controls and outdoor reset will usually use less fuel than a 25-year-old unit, and we can show you the reasoning behind the number we give you.
Yes. We service and repair boilers regardless of who put them in. If we find something unsafe we'll tell you plainly and give you the options.
Free estimate, a straight diagnosis, and a crew that shows up when we say we will.
