"We installed a Fujitsu mini-split A/C and heat pump because installing duct work was not an option. The entire process from getting a quote to completing the installation couldn't have been any better. Joe went over the full scope of the project including the ramifications if any additional work was needed. I don't think one could find a better HVAC company than Airco!"

"Plumber came out within hours of calling and offered to install the faucet the same day. Install only took a few hours and he was wrapped up by early afternoon. Fast, efficient and friendly. Just what we needed after waiting over 2 weeks for the other guy to even call us back!"

Customers say: Super punctual

"As part of a second floor renovation, I needed some new baseboard heaters installed in two bedroom, a pipe connecting them relocated/replaced, and some leaky valves replaced on my boiler. Milltown was one of the only plumbing companies that actually returned my calls, and they were able to come out right away, which was great because it was almost October and was starting to get cold. They did an excellent job with all of the work, and I think the price was reasonable for what they did. They were punctual, clean, and professional. No complaints."

"After spending 2 days trying to find someone to replace my hot water heater, Home Advisor recommended this company. They fit me into their schedule the same day and it was installed about 4 hours after my initially contact with them. Casey and Phil were great. Had them look at a couple of other minor future projects to do while they were here. Will definitely hire them again."

"Have used Scott a few times already. Great service. Needed a shower valve replaced. Used him to install a new under the cabinet kick plate heater. Also needed some old cast iron radiators disconnected and the feeds and returns disconnected when we switched over to a new system. Highly recommend"

"I am totally pleased with the work ethic and quality of Mike's work. This project took several weeks, and he met all his committed dates. The care and quality of his work on my full boiler and indirect tank replacement was excellent, including piping, fitting and pump placement. He then took a lot of time describing how the system works, and I couldn't be happier."

Install Boiler FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

Many HVAC companies offer free quotes and free estimates for repairs and new HVAC systems. Others offer low-cost quotes or apply the cost of the estimates or diagnostics to your final bill if you hire them. Be aware that some companies advertise free HVAC quotes and recoup the costs by charging more for their services. Free HVAC quotes are never truly free—they cost the company time and effort—so be a good customer. Also understand that you may end up paying for free quotes in another way if you don’t hire a reputable company.

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.

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.
