"The service was wonderful. The owner came out and he presented himself in a very professional manner. We chose to have an estimate based on the reviews and those turned out to be true. His knowledge level enhanced our ability to make an informed decision. He made us feel comfortable with the process and the cost was very competitive. He was very timely and his crew was as well. I have had no issues since the installation was done."

"Tim and his assistant worked rapidly, but carefully, to remove the old furnace, install the new one, test it and then clean up the furnace area in the basement.  In addition they were able to put the furnace-mounted humidifier back in operation.  Not only was Tim and his assistant prompt, courteous and professional, they explained everything clearly and exceeded my expectations by installing a new furnace on a Sunday morning!"

"I’ve continued to hired Schavitz for all things A/C and furnace for my home due to their knowledge, honesty, and professionalism. This time met with Craig since he specializes in boiler systems and once again he exceeded my expectations with his knowledge and service. If you want complete transparency and the highest level of service then don’t hesitate to hire Schavitz. Don’t forget to ask about their membership plan.....discounts on annual services, parts, and equipment. Great deal!"

"My furnace was installed by someone else that did a very poor job. I could not replace the filter without smashing it and smashing the new one to put in. Ridiculous! I had All Temp come out and they were able to do a quick fix so I didn't have to struggle with it anymore. He was on time, pleasant. He even put up with my dog wanting to say hello to him, Definitely would hire again!"

"The installers arrived promptly as scheduled with all necessary materials and equipment. They were professional, courteous and friendly, and were careful to clean up before leaving. Because of the cramped quarters in our boiler room, they had to remove part of one wall for the installation but they were careful to notify us of this beforehand to get our OK, and to perform the removal in a way that made the repair easy. Also, since it was a two day job, they were careful to install the water heater first so that we could have hot water in the evening before the second day. All work was done to our satisfaction and we feel that we received good value for our money. We would have no hesitation in recommending JML for any heating or cooling work."

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

Overall, heating your home with an oil furnace tends to be less expensive than heating your home with an electric heating system. Oil heating systems stay warm for longer periods of time without drawing a constant electrical current to maintain a temperature. Plus, heating oil systems typically have a longer lifespan and lower price tag than their electrical counterparts, resulting in short- and long-term savings.

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.

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.

Chilled water HVAC systems use water instead of traditional components and refrigerants. They're more common in commercial settings than residential ones but are slowly being adopted by some homebuilders to cool homes. As the name implies, the system keeps the water chilled at 40 degrees and circulates it through water coils. The water absorbs the heat from your home and drains outdoors. Condo apartments are more likely to have chilled water HVAC than single-family homes because this system is designed to cool several rooms or large areas individually.

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.
