"It went quite well. The technicians (yes, two) showed up close to the scheduled time (there was a window allowed for arrival) and got right to work. They checked the furnace and determined there were no problems and moved on the boiler (we have both forced-air and baseboard heating). There was a problem with the thermocouple and I authorized replacement. All done and gone in roughly an hour. Well done."

"Tim came out promptly, made a diagnosis and explained it so that I could understand, and arranged for a replacement the following day. David and David arrived the following day on time and, unfortunately there was 3 feet of snow blocking their path to getting my boiler out and the heavy cast iron boiler in. They worked together to shovel a path, and then worked continuously through the day until the job was done. David did a great job of explaining the workings of the boiler and left the place mess-free."

"Needed a Carrier furnace Inducer motor. Let me first say that I DO NOT RECOMMEND CARRIER as they are like a BMW, nice to own but don't ever have one off warranty. The Carrier parts prices are RIDICULOUS. Now back to Zac. he's great. Zac provided a ballpark estimate over the phone, he was on time as well. Once the friggin CARRIER arrg, inducer motor assembly was installed, it emitted a high pitch whine. Zac came back and swapped it out with another one, at his cost - thanks Zac! The new one WHINES TOO albeit slightly less!, I'm stuck, but Zac did his part and he's a very nice guy and I would use him again for sure!"

"MHC did great work while taking part in installing steam mixing stations in our company. Their response to our needs was just excellent. They worked long hours to meet projected completion time of a project and quality of their work was at highest level. I strongly recommended MHC to my fellow engineers at our company for incoming future projects."

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

You can use a boiler and a furnace, although it’s not common to use both for whole-house heating. For example, your furnace may take care of HVAC heating through your vents, while a boiler powers your floor-based radiant heating in the bathrooms. Mixing and matching like this gives homeowners a variety of heating possibilities.

The best time to buy home heating oil is in the summer when the demand is lowest, as the prices are usually lower. However, waiting until the summer to buy is often unavoidable unless you install a separate storage tank. If you have the space for a second tank, you can expect to pay between $1,000 and $4,000 for the oil tank replacement or installation, depending on the capacity and location. You could quickly recuperate these costs, though, by stocking up on heating oil in the summer and avoiding deliveries in the winter when prices are highest.

Steam boilers require flushing at least every six to 12 months to keep them operating effectively for as long as possible. Depending on your water quality and frequency of use, you might need to do this more frequently. The flushing process helps to remove problematic buildup of sediments. While a boiler contractor near you can perform a thorough annual flush, learning how to drain the system yourself means you can do this monthly if you experience speedy mineral accumulation because of hard water. 

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.

Most home boilers will need an expansion tank. That’s because these boilers are closed-loop systems, where the water is trapped. An expansion tank is needed when the boiler heats the water and it expands, allowing air to condense in the tank to make room for the water. Other types of boilers don’t use an expansion tank, such as traditional steam boilers, but these aren’t as common. And hot water tanks may be able to use a pressure release valve instead. When in doubt, call in a pro to take a look.
