"On extremely short notice, James and his team were onsite and were very efficient in the performance of the work. Even though they had a 20-point inspection and cleaning list to do for a small flat fee, they were meticulous and did not rush anything. In fact, when it came to monitoring refrigerant levels, James took several readings to establish correct information. At all times, James took the time to explain his work and process, answering my many questions politely and professionally. Faced with a possible expensive repair, James did troubleshooting to establish that it was a faulty part. Instead of trying to get me to pay him for the part and repair, he advised me that the part was still under warranty and to contact the people who installed it. That showed me both his character and his skill in his craft. James provided me with advice that saved us money in both short and long term, and i highly recommend him."

"They did the work and it was fine, but they didn't get the price right. It was really frustrating to get them to give us the correct price. I am sure my husband will call them to fix the furnace if we had another problem. They did the service in October when we had the last hurricane and they had to replace the furnace and the air-conditioner. They did some deck work with it as some of that had to be replaced. They had to build the furnace and air-conditioner up to elevate the flooding issues. They did the metal work under the furnace to elevate it. And outside for the air-conditioning unit they built a wooden platform to put it up. They did a good job when they did the work. The state was giving a rebate if you got your paper work in, but you should have it from the energy efficiency unit. So it had to be broken down by the price of the furnace, what the specifications of the furnace were, the price of air-conditioning unit and specifications to make sure it met their qualifications for the rebate. We went there 3 times before they could get it figured out, and it was just frustrating. It wasn't the quality of the work; it was the paper work that was a problem. It is hard to comment on punctuality because everybody needed the help at the same time, it wasn't in the normal circumstances. The rebate was available only till the money was gone, so we had to go in and get our paper work in electronically and once everybody put that in, it deducted the money from the pool, so it lasted from a Thursday till the Tuesday. After Tuesday if I didn't have my paper work in I wouldn't get any money. It was kind of important why the paper was needed. We have used them before, but it was just an issue of the paper work this time."

"Installation and clean up was done in one day.   Not sure what the difference will make on utility bills, but the home is much more comfortable.  The compressor is whisper quiet, I can actually hold a normal converstaion standing next to it while it is running.
These guys did a great job and I would use them again."

"Jim did a great job. He quickly assessed the problem and then took our unit with him to work on it more. When he got back to us, the fix would have cost more than it was worth. He gave us options for a new or refurbished PC. We felt the refurbished was a good deal and chose that. He came back and set that up and we are very happy with it. He then took a look at my laptop and again took it along. He tuned it up and installed a speed upgrade we wanted. Of course, we paid extra for the new unit and upgrades, but we thought the price was very fair. Jim seemed very knowledgeable and responsive. We will definitely call him again if we need any computer services."

"M & R Services was outstanding. I was so stressed when I called and he assured me everything would be fine. He replaced my HVAC unit within minutes and was the lowest quote I received. I am truly impressed and will not hesitate to use this company again for all my installations, plumbing and handyman services. Thank you M & R Services."

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

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 can take anywhere from four hours to three days to replace a boiler with a new one. How long your particular boiler installation takes will depend on whether you need a gas line installed and if you’re switching to a new boiler system. 

Replacing a combination boiler or standard boiler with the same system should only take four to six hours. Meanwhile, switching from a conventional boiler system to a combination boiler system could take a few days.

The average lifespan of a boiler is typically between 15 and 20 years, though some may last for as little as 10 years while others can reach 30. A boiler's longevity is influenced by several factors, including the quality of the unit, proper installation, and consistent professional maintenance.

The material also plays a significant role. Older boilers made from durable cast iron can last for over 20 years, with some functioning for up to 50 years. However, it's important to consider their lower efficiency, which can lead to higher utility bills. Modern boilers, often made from steel alloys, are designed to withstand high pressure and temperatures and have an average lifespan of about 20 years.

To maximize your boiler's lifespan, ensure it is installed correctly, have it professionally maintained each year, and address any necessary repairs immediately.

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.

Safety concerns with propane boilers include proper venting to prevent carbon monoxide buildup, secure gas line connections, and regular inspection of safety controls. Professional boiler installation and annual maintenance are essential to minimize risks. Having a carbon monoxide detector installed in your home is essential for early detection of any leaks or ventilation issues.
