"Pipeworx was hired to remove an old water heater and replace it with a tankless one in our summer cabin in Pagosa Springs CO. We were not there (in Arizona) so all communication was via phone, text and email.. Walt and Jodi kept us apprised of every step from product selection to installation. We arrived after the install was complete and met with them where they described every detail of the job. Communication is key to any long distance or local work and Pipeworx delivered in spades - the work was excellent and we are using them for another project."

"Initially I requested an estimate for a plumbing project already in progress with some challenges. Keith responded immediately to get details and schedule to come out to look at what was needed. He proposed a solution that eliminated any impact to walls or tile to replace old valves and faucets. He and his team completed the work on time and were neat and professional and results were better than I expected. There was no damage at all to what was old tile. I subsequently had him assess an old water heater and decided to replace it. It had to go into a very small areas and be upgraded to code and he was able to solution the replacement to fit perfectly in the limited space. Previously on the project we had noticed a periodic odor of gas but no one had verified a source. Keith identified a leak in the area of the furnace right next to the water heater. We had decided to upgrade the furnace and AC and again Keith and his team were able to get an order in quickly, get the install done exactly as committed and fixed the gas leak in the process. Based on the quality of work performed in each case and the expertise of the team I hired Plumbing Tree again to assess an old furnace and AC at my primary residence. The furnace had been failing at the end of the winter but I waited for summer to replace and it had deteriorated and was not safe. Keith evaluated and gave me two options and was able to get the order in immediately after I decided to go ahead. He scheduled the install within a few days. His crew was on time and completed the install of furnace and AC in one day. Again they were neat, efficient, described all the changes from the old furnace and thermostat to the new and answered all my questions. Everything has been functioning just as I expected for both heat and AC. I recommend Plumbing Tree for these services based on quality and reliability - also cost was competitive and the team they used had the expertise required. Additionally they were easy to work with and I plan to use them again on another project. Thanks Keith and team- I appreciate the quality work!"

"Outstanding family-run company. Efficient, professional, reliable, and friendly service. Jim personally handled my plumbing "emergency" on very short notice, and he absolutely exceeded all expectations. I had a saddle valve - connected to the water heater - fail, and he not only fixed the leak but installed a stronger valve/line to mitigate the risk of another premature failure. Jim Needham Plumbing is a top-tier company that goes above and beyond, and stands behind their work; this is the type of small business I am happy to support and recommend to friends and family."

"Aether Mechanical is a great contractor: knowledgeable about HVAC design, competent about installation (and nuances for our home), and responsive at the office. Nicolas, the lead engineer, went out of his way to help us with a noise problem (that his work did not cause) after the boiler installation was complete, and he stayed with it until we all found a solution. Great work!"

"Every step, from the estimate with the super friendly Ryan, to the final walk-thru with the always professional Gemini, was absolutely top notch. They installed a new furnace, A/C, and tankless water heater and we are very happy with the work and final outcome. The whole crew was wonderful!"

"Installed new boiler and replaced all the plumbing in our basement (our house is 127 years old). They did a good job and worked hard to get our boiler replaced when the old one gave up the ghost in the winter. Also did a good job replacing all our plumbing in the basement and crawlspace in 2 working days. Kind of a strange name but don't worry, they are a really good plumbing and heating company and offer a 0% interest loan to pay for the bill."

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

Using heating oil to heat your home has its advantages, but it also has its disadvantages. 

Consider these drawbacks before installing a heating oil system:

  • Heating oil prices fluctuate frequently

  • Risk of oil spills or leaks

  • Produces more air pollution and soot compared to a gas furnace

  • Regular maintenance required for equipment

  • Need to reorder heating oil consistently to avoid running out

If you have a closed-system boiler that requires an expansion tank, you cannot safely operate it without one, as this risks extensive damage or even explosions. You must find a way to make room for the installation. Options include repositioning the boiler, rerouting the boiler piping to a more open area, or performing minor remodeling to create the necessary space. If you are unsure whether your boiler needs an expansion tank or how to best accommodate one, it's recommended to have a local heating service professional assess the situation. They can confirm the requirement and suggest the most practical solution.

No, there isn’t always water in radiators. In a one-pipe system, water is constantly circulating from the boiler to the radiators and back. In a two-pipe system, water travels through two separate channels: one that goes to your radiators and one that returns back to the boiler so it can heat up again.

Oil boilers provide reliable heating, efficiency, and long-term cost savings compared to electric options.

Warmed or cooled air can escape your home through drafty windows and doors. If you notice any gaps, be sure to caulk and seal them. You can also hire a local pro for an energy audit to get a list of energy-saving recommendations. 

Finally, check your insulation. It can settle in over time and become less effective. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that you can save an average of 15% on heating and cooling costs (or 11% of total energy costs) by sealing leaks and making sure attics, crawl spaces, and basements have a nice layer of insulation.
