"Williams & Associates replaced an ancient, very large old boiler in my very large house. Bruce calculated the necessary size and found a suitable boiler. He and his crew thoroughly cleared the radiators and lines before removing the old boiler and installing the new one. They checked all the radiators and added new valves as needed during a lengthy checkout. It took several days to do all the work. Throughout, Bruce explained what they were doing and why as well as recommending changes/additions to the original proposal. They were even cheerful about removing the original "Mary Jane" from the basement. I would definitely recommend them to anyone using steam heat. Great job!"

"These guys do phenomenal work. I’ve hired various contractors in the past and I can honestly say that Fellowship is by far the best group of contractors I have worked with. I hired them to install a new boiler system for me and the job went as smooth as it could have possibly gone. Very professional group of guys, that exceeded expectations. I most definitely plan on working with them again in the future. Highly recommended!"

"I had what I felt was an emergency situation. An outside water faucet was not closing and shutting off properly. Spewing water onto my patio area. Nick was here within an hour and not only fixed the problem but installed a new plumbing fixture that is amazing., I can work it without any discomfort with my old lady hands. There is also extra protection from freezing in the cold winter months. I will call him again and refer his company to all my friends."

"We recently hired Branden to fix an issue we were having with our heating system. He came out in a very timely manner and had the problem diagnosed and fixed in a very short time. He was very professional and explained everything he did and also identified some potential problems we may have in the future and gave us a plan to take care of them. I would recommend this company to anyone having issues with any part of their HVAC system as they are professional, courteous and knowledgeable!"

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

The radiators closest in proximity to the boiler heating system will heat up first. Radiators in rooms farther away from the boiler will take longer to heat up and may be the coolest rooms in the house. The radiator unit itself should heat up evenly; otherwise, there may be trapped air inside it.

On average, you’ll need about two gallons of oil per day to heat your house when it’s 50 degrees Fahrenheit outside. Most oil tank capacity is about 275 gallons, and heating your house with two gallons of oil per day will last about four and a half months. This consumption will vary depending on the climate and average temperature in your location. For example, if the winters are longer and colder where you live, you’ll probably need to refill your oil tank at least once to get through the winter.

Hydronic and standard electric baseboard heaters differ in how they operate, their cost, and their performance. Standard convection heaters use electric coils to heat the air directly, while hydronic heaters warm a contained liquid like water or oil, which then radiates heat into the room.

In terms of cost and efficiency, hydronic heaters usually have a higher upfront price but are more energy-efficient and cheaper to run over time. This is because the heated liquid retains warmth, allowing the heater to continue providing heat for a while after the thermostat turns it off. In contrast, electric heaters provide heat more quickly but are less efficient.

Ultimately, the better choice depends on your priorities. If you need a room to heat up fast and have a lower initial budget, an electric heater might be suitable. If long-term energy savings are more important and you don't mind a slower heat-up time, a hydronic heater is likely the better option.

Warmed or cooled air can escape your home through drafty windows and doors. If you notice any gaps, be sure to caulk and seal them. You can also hire a local pro for an energy audit to get a list of energy-saving recommendations. 

Finally, check your insulation. It can settle in over time and become less effective. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that you can save an average of 15% on heating and cooling costs (or 11% of total energy costs) by sealing leaks and making sure attics, crawl spaces, and basements have a nice layer of insulation.

Oil boilers provide reliable heating, efficiency, and long-term cost savings compared to electric options.
