"On a Friday night, our boiler shut down. We reset it and eventually, it started working on its own, but we called Jeff and left a message, because who knew whether it would stop working again. We didn't indicate that it was urgent--since we had heat at the time that we left the message--but Jeff called back shortly after we left the message anyway. He said that he'd be in our area and would take a look at the boiler the next afternoon (a Saturday). That turned out to be a good thing, since the problem recurred a couple of times overnight. And then, when it became apparent that the boiler was shutting down constantly and our problem needed to be fixed right away, he went to complete his other scheduled jobs, and then came back to our house and stayed until almost 8pm on a Saturday night to repair our boiler. The price was very reasonable too! On top of that, it's not as though we were regular customers. He never heard of us before, and yet he went waaay out of his way to accommodate us. On a scale of 1 to 10, we'd give him a 14. He's going to get all of our business from now on, and he should get yours too!"

"John G. did an excellent job evaluating the functioning of our boiler and performing annual maintenance for it. It was his second time taking care of the boiler for us. He quickly answered the minor questions that I had, and he advised what would be cost-effective in addressing the issues that I raised. In both the instances in which John G. has serviced our heating system, I found him to be knowledgeable, courteous, and focused on saving us money, whether on heating costs or future upgrades."

"HL Bowman came through when we needed them most. Our AC failed on the hottest day of the year, and they had us back up and running with a full new system installed the very next day. The technicians were knowledgeable, professional, and honest. They explained our options clearly and never pressured us into anything we didn't need. We felt confident we were getting quality equipment at a fair price. HL Bowman only carries best-in-class equipment with a variety of options across different budgets. In a stressful moment, they made the whole thing painless and smooth. Highly recommend."

"It went very well - from the initial talks with Chris Zaremba until having Matt & Trevor do the installation - all was done professionally and with lots of attention to detail. They worked very hard - the job took 6 days. I have had lots of contractors over the years and Morris Heating and Air Conditioning is easily one for the top contractors - I would highly recommend them."

"The installers seemed to be quite knowledgeable and professional. They concentrated on doing the lob, were thorough and pleasant. They answered all questions to my satisfaction. Everything was done on time and all equipment and workers arrived on schedule. They were careful not to create any excess dust during the installation and did a good job of cleaning up when the work was done. In spite of the attic temperature being well over 80 degrees, they worked continuously and finished on schedule. I would recommend Airco Home Comfort Services to anyone who is looking for a high quality, professional job. They demonstrated the technical knowledge and engineering capabilities to evaluate the job and to select the right equipment for my requirements, more so than several other providers were able to do. I was not looking for the least expensive job, but for the best engineering capabilities for a fairly large house with a good sized, north facing sun room and many windows.

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes. Boilers need water to run without overheating, also known as dry firing. If you run it without a sufficient volume of water, either because of a burst pipe or a leak, you run the risk of damaging your machine or jeopardizing the safety of your home as a whole. When in doubt, shut off your boiler and repair any plumbing issues before turning it back on. Alternatively, consider installing a low-water cutoff (LWCO) before any issues arise. This gadget will protect your boiler by monitoring water levels and automatically shutting it off if it gets too low. 

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.

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.

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.
