"Went great. Maddie H. came by and found the problem with my old water heater. She setup the install for me. Bradley K. installed the new water heater the next day and did an excellent job. Both individuals were very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. Great job to everyone concerned. Thanks!"

"Excellent! This is our 2nd home renovation and remodel with Double Tap HVAC and Electrical. Our first home we utilized Double Tap to ensure the sale of our home by renovating and updating 2 full baths, and all repairs listed per the inspection report. With Double Tap being a licensed contractor, electrician and HVAC it was a total win versus using several companies to complete the job! Outstanding work ethic, affordable pricing, impeccable knowledge base, and consistent daily work to get the job completed on time! We used Double Tap again for our newly purchased home to renovate our entire living space to create an open floor plan. This entailed wall removal, beam / support installation, mold removal, subfloor leveling, attic/ crawl space inspection, floor installation, and a complete staircase reconstruction. Double Tap has also made after hours HVAC emergency service calls for us. I highly recommend Double Tap HVAC and Electrical and will always be a loyal customer recommending to anyone that owns a home or business!"

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.

DIY is not recommended due to safety risks and technical expertise required. Hire licensed professionals.

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. 

A furnace is a big unit where gas, heating oil, or electricity heats the air. The warmed air is then pushed back out through ducts and vents. 

A boiler uses electricity, heating oil, or gas to heat water that is pushed into the room through a radiator. This is one of the oldest and most effective ways to heat a house, but radiators can also be unsightly and leave hot and cold spots in the room.

Heat pumps use a refrigerant to move heat from outside into the house and return it to the room through ducts and vents.

In some cases, conversion kits are available, but not all boilers are compatible. Conversion may require significant modifications and should only be performed by a qualified professional. Before making a decision, compare conversion costs to the cost of a complete replacement to determine the most cost-effective and reliable option for your home.
