"we had our house rented out and the renters had moved out without warning and had trashed the place. we had called steve at southern comfort to get an appointment and they were so fast and courteous. they were able to make it out the next day and install all our new equipment and gave us a great financing option to help cushion the blow of such a unexpected expense. the workers were well dressed in uniform and fast but efficient with their work. we had a toddler that at the time was still taking afternoon naps in the bedroom next to where they were working and made sure to keep as quiet as possible to not disturb her. after they were done installing they made sure to clean up all of their mess and hauled away the old equipment."

"Started on time as agreed. Bradley was very courteous and easy to communicate with. He took a little longer to complete the work, due to the age of old unit. This was not a problem, and I feel he finished as quick as possible, with out quality problems. We are very pleased with the installation. We will hire Bradley again if the need arises."

"I could not be more impressed with the estimate, service and installation by Wambo’s Waterworks. Ronald Wambo was not only professional, experienced and efficient - he was friendly, polite and honest. I searched my neighbor’s recommendations on Nextdoor and replied to a post asking for contact information. I went to the company website at [*** Link removed ***] and easily scheduled an appointment online. I received a call back within the hour to confirm my appointment! Ronald came out on time to take a look at my issues and gave a more than fair estimate. He arrived at 7am the very next morning to begin the work. He was very diligent in his work and you can tell by my photos that his expertise in the field is like that of no other. Wambo’s Waterworks is my plumber of choice! Thank you!"

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

The primary differences between a heat pump and a boiler are their function and how they produce heat. A heat pump is a versatile system that provides both heating and cooling by moving ambient air and altering its temperature. In contrast, a boiler is solely a heating system, often working with a furnace or AC unit as part of a larger HVAC system. In terms of heat production, a heat pump generates heat more slowly and at a lower temperature, requiring a large convector for distribution. A boiler, however, produces a large amount of high-temperature heat that it emits through smaller radiators.

A home radiator works by using radiation and convection to transfer heat throughout your home. Electric radiators use metal to conduct heat and warm the air, which then rises to warm the room. Steam and hot water radiators work with a boiler and piping system to pump thermal energy throughout the home. Hot water radiators use a boiler to heat the water before circulating it to the radiator, while steam heating radiator systems convert the heated water to steam before circulating it out. When the water or steam cools, it travels back to the boiler to be heated again.

Steam boilers require flushing at least every six to 12 months to keep them operating effectively for as long as possible. Depending on your water quality and frequency of use, you might need to do this more frequently. The flushing process helps to remove problematic buildup of sediments. While a boiler contractor near you can perform a thorough annual flush, learning how to drain the system yourself means you can do this monthly if you experience speedy mineral accumulation because of hard water. 

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.

The cost of heating oil fluctuates rapidly based on supply and demand, but the average price is between $4.00 and $4.50 per gallon, which means filling a standard 275-gallon tank would cost between $1,100 and $1,240. Much like automotive gasoline, the price of home heating oil changes constantly, so the only way to get an accurate and current price per gallon is to contact a heating oil delivery company. Some companies also offer contracts with a set price that should be an average cost over the contract term.
