"Williams & Associates replaced an ancient, very large old boiler in my very large house. Bruce calculated the necessary size and found a suitable boiler. He and his crew thoroughly cleared the radiators and lines before removing the old boiler and installing the new one. They checked all the radiators and added new valves as needed during a lengthy checkout. It took several days to do all the work. Throughout, Bruce explained what they were doing and why as well as recommending changes/additions to the original proposal. They were even cheerful about removing the original "Mary Jane" from the basement. I would definitely recommend them to anyone using steam heat. Great job!"

"Posted a job for a boiler replacement on homeadvisor on thursday and got a call in less than half an hour. Ron, one of the owners, said he could come take a look on saturday morning. I got a quote on monday. I decided to hire them on friday. Jeremy the boiler specialist and other co owner came by the the next day to take a few more pictures and check on a few other things. The boiler we decided on was a special order and took a few weeks to arrive. It came in on a monday and was installed by thursday. They started on thursday morning with a two man crew. Around lunch the Jeremy came by to see how things were going. Around 2pm an other two guys showed up to help. At about 3:30 the co owner and boiler specialist came by to oversee the final part of the install and operational testing. I was originally told it would be a two day install. They didn't just replace the boiler, they replaced the expansion tank, dual zone control box, etc. They worked until around 7pm to get it all done in one day. They bled all the radiators in the house and made sure they were heating properly. They took all the old parts with them and left no trash behind. Everybody from this company was extremely professional. They arrived within five minutes of the time they said they would be at my house. Nobody could beat the quote they gave me for the install. Any questions I had were responded to in 30 minutes or less. The install looks amazing so much shiny copper pipe. Cawiamca gave me a 3 year warranty where they will take care of all the labor and parts if anything goes wrong. This was by far the best experience I have ever had with a company coming to my house to do something.They performed consistently above my expectations. They will be the first people I call if I need any more work done on my heating system. I highly recommend Cawiamca."

"Jeremy and his team gave me the best contractor experience I've ever had. He listened to what I wanted, provided a fair quote for a central A/C replacement (air handler and condenser), and never pressured me or tried to upsell. In passing, he mentioned a heat pump option for the shoulder months to reduce oil use, but that was it. After doing my own research, I called him back with questions, and he took the time to walk through the pros and cons honestly. There was no sales pitch, I actually asked for a quote heat pump quote too, because I saw the benefits myself. I ultimately chose the heat pump and appreciate that Jeremy gave me the information needed to make an informed decision. His crew was fantastic, friendly, professional, and thorough. They removed the old system and completed prep work on day one, then finished the install on day two and walked me through everything. Great communication, great pricing, great workmanship. I highly recommend Jeremy and his team!"

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

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.

Scale from hard water is hard to diagnose until it starts causing problems. If your area has particularly hard water, that’s most likely what your boiler is using. If scale build-up becomes a problem, it starts to cause decreased flow and heating, and eventually, valve failures as valves become blocked. Let boiler professionals know if you’re worried about scale and they can offer advice or implement a solution.

Since your boiler keeps you warm and provides hot water to your home, you’re likely to notice issues with heating in your living space right away. The most obvious sign that your boiler is breaking is not getting any heat or hot water. You might also hear some odd sounds coming from your boiler during operation, the flame in your gas boiler is not blue, the pressure is inconsistent, or your boiler is using more energy than it should. If you notice any of these signs, be sure to call a pro right away.

Costs depend on unit size, labor, fuel type, and whether additional piping or venting is needed.

The primary differences between a heat pump and a boiler are their function and how they produce heat. A heat pump is a versatile system that provides both heating and cooling by moving ambient air and altering its temperature. In contrast, a boiler is solely a heating system, often working with a furnace or AC unit as part of a larger HVAC system. In terms of heat production, a heat pump generates heat more slowly and at a lower temperature, requiring a large convector for distribution. A boiler, however, produces a large amount of high-temperature heat that it emits through smaller radiators.
