"Williams & Associates installed a Buderus oil-fired boiler and stainless-steel chimney liner. Bruce's design was a significant upgrade over my 35-year-old boiler system. He clearly explained the process and installation, and he was receptive to my questions. Bruce is knowledgeable, straightforward, and responsive. The price was very fair, considering the quality of the work and other estimates I had gotten. I would not hesitate to recommend Williams & Associates."

"Prompt, efficient service --- Technically knows gas furnace products --- More importantly knows the economics of keeping up with repairs on a 30 year old unit vs going with a new unit --- Not a sales pitch -- just facts ---- Went new and the cost including nicely done installing was much lower than I originally thought it would be .

"Jeremy came the evening of the day I called him accommodating my schedule. It wasn't even an emergency, at least I didn't think it was. I called for a cleaning but he immediately identified a problem I didn't know I had. He walked me through the diagnostic, described and demonstrated the problem, quoted the job and when I accepted it he performed the repair. When he left my boiler was working efficiently. The boiler was working but the heated water wasn't circulating through the baseboard. I was constantly burning oil with minimal effect. It had felt drafty in the house and I was relying largely on a gas fireplace to take the chill out of the air. That's no longer the case, the house is warm. He's coming to clean the boiler Wednesday evening. I will never hire anyone but Jeremy again to maintain my boiler."

Boiler Repair questions, answered by experts

Blockages can occur for various reasons, primarily linked to the accumulation of debris or substances within the heating system. Common causes include the buildup of sediment, rust, or mineral deposits inside the boiler or its pipes, hindering water flow and heat transfer. Additionally, air pockets or trapped gasses can impede circulation. In central heating systems, sludge or corrosion within radiators can obstruct the flow of hot water. External factors like frozen pipes in winter can also lead to blockages. Regular maintenance will help prevent blockages and ensure efficient boiler operation.

There are a couple of signs that will tell you it’s time to bleed the radiator. If the radiator is making noises, it’s typically because of trapped air, which you can release by bleeding the radiator. You can also test the radiator by turning on your heat and then placing your hand near the top and bottom of the radiator. If you feel cold spots, particularly at the top of the radiator, it’s time to bleed it.

NATE (North American Technician Excellence) certification is not legally required for HVAC technicians in most areas, but hiring a professional with this certification is highly recommended. NATE-certified technicians demonstrated their expertise and proficiency in different types of HVAC systems, offering assurance of quality service. It's a voluntary certification, yet it indicates a commitment to professionalism and ongoing training. Choosing a NATE-certified technician often means you're working with someone who is up-to-date on industry standards and best practices, which can lead to better service, energy efficiency, and long-term cost savings.

In most cases, repairing a radiator is more affordable than replacing it. A typical repair may cost between $100 and $200, while a replacement can average $1,500, with a range of $250 to $2,500 depending on the unit type. Radiator issues are often simple fixes for a professional, such as a blown fuse, malfunctioning thermostat, or a loose valve, and can take less than an hour. However, if the long-term costs of fixing the radiator are higher than replacement, it's better to get a new model. It is recommended to consult a heating expert to diagnose the problem and determine the best solution for your situation.

You can save money on heating oil through a combination of improving home efficiency and smart purchasing strategies.

Home Efficiency and Usage:

  • Improve Insulation: Ensure your home, especially the basement and attic, is well-insulated and sealed against drafts to prevent heat leakage.

  • Manage Your Thermostat: Use a properly calibrated and programmable thermostat. Lower the temperature by a few degrees, particularly when you are away from home or asleep.

Purchasing Strategies:

  • Buy in the Off-Season: Order heating oil during the summer months when prices are generally at their lowest. This strategy is most effective if you have a large primary tank or a separate storage tank to accommodate bulk deliveries.

  • Consider a Delivery Contract: Some companies offer contracts with a set price for the term. This can lead to savings if market prices for oil increase, but you might pay more if prices drop.
