"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."

Don't think twice about hiring him - he will be in very high demand as he continues to make a name for himself."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

Propane is more cost-efficient than natural gas on a per-unit basis because it produces twice as much heat energy as an equivalent amount of natural gas. But propane is not ideal if you already have a gas line installed. The best choice for your home depends on the efficiency of your appliances and the amount of installation required of your fuel choice.

A furnace is a big unit where gas, heating oil, or electricity heats the air. The warmed air is then pushed back out through ducts and vents. 

A boiler uses electricity, heating oil, or gas to heat water that is pushed into the room through a radiator. This is one of the oldest and most effective ways to heat a house, but radiators can also be unsightly and leave hot and cold spots in the room.

Heat pumps use a refrigerant to move heat from outside into the house and return it to the room through ducts and vents.

Professionals can recommend efficient layouts or appliances and ensuring regulatory compliance.

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.

The average lifespan of a boiler is typically between 15 and 20 years, though some may last for as little as 10 years while others can reach 30. A boiler's longevity is influenced by several factors, including the quality of the unit, proper installation, and consistent professional maintenance.

The material also plays a significant role. Older boilers made from durable cast iron can last for over 20 years, with some functioning for up to 50 years. However, it's important to consider their lower efficiency, which can lead to higher utility bills. Modern boilers, often made from steel alloys, are designed to withstand high pressure and temperatures and have an average lifespan of about 20 years.

To maximize your boiler's lifespan, ensure it is installed correctly, have it professionally maintained each year, and address any necessary repairs immediately.
