We converted a 30 year old oil fired steam boiler and indirect fired hot water system to a brand new Burhnam steam boiler and SuperStor indirect hot water heater. They also installed a new steam radiator in an upper bedroom that was previously only headed by electric baseboard. The quote they gave us of around $9,000 was for the equipment, materials and labor except for the electrical.
The quote process went smoothly which is very important when working with the MassSave Heat Loan process. They were very patient while we got our loan approval worked out and were quick to respond with tiny changes to the quote for the MassSave Heat Loan paperwork requirements.
The Pespisa team is made up of Dominic and his brother Conor. Both were great! The install went smoothly over a period of 2 days (once the gas line was installed and inspected) and we had no down time whatsoever. They were also great coordinating with the town to make sure our gas line got inspected right away. Once the new system was up and running, we had a small problem with the system shutting off due to low water return. They quickly addressed the problem by cleaning out the ancient return pipe and replaced the rusted section (way above and beyond in my opinion). Conor also worked with me over the next few weeks so I could correctly skim the system (a standard operating procedure for all new boilers) to get rid of the oils left by the manufacturing process.
Once everything was done and it was time to collect on all the rebates from National Grid and MassSave, Dominic had all the right order numbers and reference materials ready for us. It was very straight forward to file for the rebates online and wait for them to come in the mail.
It is now May 2015 and the system is great. We have an abundance of hot water and our gas bill, and even in the coldest billable months of February and March, was never higher that $350.
Finished the job well as promised.
Pespisa Company has performed work for me several times over the past few years. The experience is always positive and the result is a job well done. From a kitchen and bathroom remodel to water heater replacement, I have been able to count on Dominic to be dependable and extremely knowledgeable. He is easy to work with and takes the time to explain options and then accurately completes the task.
I would not hesititate to recommend hightly Dominic Pespisa and his brother Colin.
We've hired many other plumbers in the past who did fine work but charged exorbitant prices given the work they performed. We don't begrudge someone making a profit but the costs should be within reason. Pespisa's prices were fair and within reason.
We asked them to install a drip/drain pain underneath the hot water heater which they did.
The two negatives about the job are that the drip pan drain is not facing the room where it would be easy to access or where we could put a bucket under it. The other is that the tank exterior was damaged slightly when it was installed (or perhaps from the manufacturer - it's hard to tell). I don't know if the slight damage is cosmetic only or it will impact the life of the tank.
