"We needed our boiler replaced and had multiple companies come and look at the job. We ended up selecting Sila as we read good reviews on the company. Sila surpassed our expectations. The tech who performed the install (Gage) was on time, communicated the entire process to us from start to finish and did a tremendous job. He also made sure to clean up afterwards and was very professional. We would absolutely hire Sila again!"

"From the start of the project of the response, time of less than 15 minutes of receiving a phone call, The tech, Steve Unger, was here within a few hours and was able to get my AC unit temporarily running to get me through the week until we could schedule a replacement. Steve was amazing.! then I was greeted with a visit with Manny who sold me on the value of HL Bowman partnering unit with Home Depot made by Honeywell. It was much more cost-effective and seems to be doing a tremendous job at cooling my very tough A-frame situation at my condo. Chris and Jake were the install personnel that worked very efficiently and had the unit up and running within five hours. They also were very personable and took tremendous care of my needs. Lastly, I had a follow up the day after it was installed with Jesse who did a fabulous job inspecting and making sure the unit was running efficiently and properly as well as his knowledge of showing me proper thermostat settings. Thank you HL Bowman!!"

"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."

"We lost our boiler - and all heat – just one day before a major snowstorm was forecasted to hit. I reached out to Chris from Chris Vaccarello Plumbing to see if there was any chance he could fix our existing boiler before the storm arrived. After thoroughly assessing the condition and issues with the old system, Chris explained the problems clearly and offered to install a brand new heating system the very next day. True to his word, Chris and his team arrived promptly at 7 AM on the day of the storm. They worked tirelessly and with incredible dedication straight into the night, just to make sure we had heat during the worst of the storm. Their commitment, teamwork, and professionalism was truly impressive. I would absolutely hire Chris again and highly recommend him and his team to anyone in need of plumbing or heating services. Their reliability and work ethic are second and none."

"Cecil with CS Plumbing “knocks it out of the park” again. I unexpectedly needed another boiler installed within a week of my last install by him. The second install was once again neat and clean, completed within hours, not days and his knowledge and professionalism were on full display. I have one more boiler to replace in this three family and I’ll give you one guess who will be doing the work!"

"Boiler installation. Michael and his team did an excellent job replacing my leaking boiler with a new, efficient one. His quick communication, thoughtful explanations, professional workmanship, and competitive pricing (better than three other offers) made him the clear choice. I highly recommend working with them."

"We had been considering replacement of our ancient, dust-collecting, rusty-looking, hot water radiators which heated our home well, but somewhat unevenly, in our 1929 Dutch Colonial. We also wanted to move away from window air conditioning units that had to be put in and taken out each season and finally move into the world of central air. I looked into conventional central a/c and heating and the quotes I got were more expensive or equal in price and because the required large ductwork would practically eliminate my already pathetic closet space and be much, much more invasive. So HVSD was definitely the only viable way for us to proceed, if at all. I remembered hearing about HVSD at a wedding years ago from my husband's colleague who had used Climate Technologies for installations in 2 different homes and he couldn't stop talking about how great it was. (Since then he's had it done in a 3rd home, too.) Fast forward to 2008 when I've finally saved enough money to consider having the work done. I asked my husband to get the name of this contractor and it was Don Martin at Climate Technologies. I contacted them in mid-April of 2008 and Steve Martin came out within a day or so. I signed a contract at the end of April and they came to do the job in early May 2008. Although I had good recommendation on which to base this decision, I was reluctant to do the whole house all at once, because I still worried about the potential for noise/loudness of the HVSD and if we would be happy, which is why I only contracted for the upper floor. I wanted a soup to nuts job (removal of my aforementioned humongous radiators, electrical, central heat and a/c, air filtration for my child with seasonal allergies, etc.). The work took a day or so longer than I thought it would, but that can be partly attributed to them not doing something invasive, which they avoided by thinking outside the box--in this particular case, running a drainage pipe so it would flow into my gutter, instead of a quicker, uglier solution. I did not submit this report earlier because although we used our a/c over the summer, I wanted to test my heat during the first winter, too, so I could give a thorough report. At the end of the summer I was satisfied enough to schedule Phase 2 (ground floor/lower level) for the fall. We are very happy with our HVSD heating and cooling system and the work performed by Climate Technologies."

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.

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.

It takes about five to 10 minutes for heat to reach a radiator, then about one hour until the radiator fully heats up a room. The exact duration depends on the size of the room and how far away the radiator is from the boiler heating system. Heating up an entire house could take up to two hours.

When winter rolls around, and you turn the heat on for the first time in a year, it’s normal to sense a light odor. This could smell a little like burning because some dust has gathered in the heating unit over the warm months and will fade away shortly after. However, there are some smells you should watch out for and take caution around: an egg-like sulfur smell or an electrical burn odor would indicate there’s something wrong. Turn it off and call a professional for maintenance as soon as possible. 

The main difference between an outdoor wood furnace versus an outdoor wood boiler is what each appliance is heating. An outdoor wood furnace burns wood to create heat, which warms the air and moves it through the ducts in your home. An outdoor wood boiler uses the heat from burning wood to warm water, which goes through pipes to radiators in the home.
