"Danny, from HL Bowman, quickly understood the scope of the installation and used his expertise to make the installation seamless. As a result, the filtration system he installed is now operating perfectly to remove particulates greater the 5 microns from our well water. I would highly recommend HL Bowman for your plumbing needs. "

"Advanced Mechanical Services (AMS) went out of their way to get our new oil tank installed and the old one removed in the winter. We were experiencing issues with our old tank where our oil company could not fill the old tank. AMS worked closely with us to install the new tank quickly. They kept us in the loop and were on time on installation day. The installers were professional, kept us informed and did an excellent job. In addition, they cleaned up after themselves. We also use them for our annual furnace cleaning. They always do a great job and have come out on emergency calls a few times over the past 25 (or more) years. I highly recommend them."

"I needed quick service on a 45 year old hot water boiler in a 1938 house I recently purchased.  While I could get the pilot light lit, nothing I did could get the boiler to fire (water was circulating).
On Wednesday I contacted Pelletier Mechanical as Gary (the owner) had been out giving me estimates on the various repairs and modifications I wanted to make.  While Gary was out of the office training (again), Laura his admin arranged for Bill to come out on Friday.  She provided an estimated cost (right on) and a 2 hour window.
Bill showed up on time and after a brief discussion get right to work.  Bill spent about 15 mins. systematically determining why the flame would not light.  He discovered that there the gas was not making it to the main control valve.  He reset the safety shut off valve and the problem was solved.  He then checked all the radiators to make sure that hot water was making it through out the house.  After we determined that the upstairs radiators were not getting hot, Bill checked the water pressure and determined that the pressure was insufficient to fill the upstairs radiators in "real  time".  He suggested that the culprit was the 45 year old water valve and pressure release valve which being cast iron tend to corrode and clog in time.  He proposed a replacement solution and priced it out, and offered to pick up the parts and replace the valves that afternoon.  I decided to wait a few weeks so I could consider replacing the entire boiler.
While we were waiting on the boiler to come up to heat, Bill and I walked through the basement looking at the existing plumbing, tracing the water flow path and discussing the possibility of replacing the hot water tank with a tankless unit. (The hot water run is about 60-65 feet from HW tank to kitchen, bathrooms, etc.)  Bill, like Gary, is knowledgeable and informative.
I will have Pelletier Mechanical  back to do more work on the house."

"HARP sent a rep to the house, he did the evaluation for sizing, which was in line with the sizing tools I used. The solution he offered was just about what I had picked out, and I went with his recommendation. The install went fine. They did have to be reminded to retape some ducts, but we're happy to take care of it."

"We had a Burnham boiler that developed a crack (apparently they are notorious for doing so). It was spewing water all over our basement every time it turned on. Mike came over promptly and assessed the situation, giving us several options. We could have gone with a less expensive boiler, but chose a higher efficiency one as well as a new hot water tank (since ours was about 14 years old) and new connections. The installation took all day and into the evening with Mike and his partner working virtually non-stop. He also vacuumed up five gallons of water from our basement. We felt Mike was very professional as well as pleasant and honest to deal with. The new furnace has been in for a few days and is very quiet. He has estimated a savings of about $900 a year in oil costs with the new system.

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

No, boilers and water heaters are not interchangeable because they serve different primary functions. Boilers are used for central heating systems, providing hot water or steam to heat your home. In contrast, a water heater's purpose is to supply hot water for daily household use, such as for faucets and showers. A water heater alone cannot supply the warm water or steam needed for a central heating system.

While they are not interchangeable, it is common to have both a boiler and a water heater. In fact, a conventional boiler often works best when a water heater system is already in place. The two systems can be combined to provide both heating and hot water, either by pairing a boiler with an indirect water heater or by installing a premade combination boiler-water heater unit. For home heating, some homeowners may also opt for a furnace instead of a boiler.

To figure out if your boiler is worth repairing or if you need to replace your boiler, first figure out how old the unit is. Boilers last 15 to 20 years, so if your unit is 15 years old or older, it may be better to replace the entire thing depending on the severity of the problems. If it’s not quite that old, then it’s probably worth repairing. Another thing to consider is whether your warranty covers any of the repair costs. If so, it may be worthwhile to repair your boiler to keep it running.

Yes, you can build a sunroom addition to your home despite living in a cold climate. Make sure to use high-quality insulation and windows and to supplement with sufficient heating from your HVAC system. The windows in the sunroom allow enough natural light into the room to help heat it most times without having to use the furnace. Even a small electric fireplace can heat the sunroom well enough.

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

On average, you’ll need about two gallons of oil per day to heat your house when it’s 50 degrees Fahrenheit outside. Most oil tank capacity is about 275 gallons, and heating your house with two gallons of oil per day will last about four and a half months. This consumption will vary depending on the climate and average temperature in your location. For example, if the winters are longer and colder where you live, you’ll probably need to refill your oil tank at least once to get through the winter.
