"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!"

"The Fellowship Team recently installed a new boiler system for me and the experience was flawless from start to finish. Replacing a primary heating system is a major investment, but this team made the entire process stress-free. The installation was incredibly clean. The technicians routed the new piping with surgical precision, ensuring everything was tidy, secure, and easy to access for future maintenance. Since the install, my home reaches the target temperature much faster than before, and the unit runs so quietly I barely notice it?s on. I?m already seeing the benefits in my lower monthly energy bills. The crew arrived on schedule, was sure to not damage anything, and clearly explained how to use the new digital thermostat before they left. They treated my home with genuine respect. It is rare to see this level of dedication to quality. If you need a reliable, high-performing heating system installed by pros who actually care about the details, look no further. 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."

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

Installation costs range from $4,000 to $12,000, depending on unit size, efficiency rating, and labor.

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. 

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.
