Types Of Boilers We Install
High-efficiency condensing boilers. Wall-hung units that save space and trim fuel use when paired with proper venting and return water temperatures. Great for multi-zone baseboard or radiant if controls are set correctly.
Cast-iron hot-water boilers. Durable workhorses for simple baseboard loops. We match output to the actual heat loss so the system cycles steadily and radiators stay consistent.
Combi boilers. Domestic hot water and space heat from one appliance. We size for the higher of the two demands and confirm flow rates so showers do not suffer when heat calls start.
Oil-fired boilers. For homes that still run on oil, we set up clean combustion, draft, and filtration, then prepare for future fuel conversion if that is on your horizon.
Controls and zoning. Smart thermostats, zone valves, or pumps as the layout requires. We balance loops and set limits so each floor heats without hunting.

This Installation Process (Boiler Install in Hopedale, MA)
- Walkthrough and load check. We measure room-by-room heat loss, count baseboard or radiant coverage, and note system water volume. That sets boiler size and pump selection.
- Permits and scheduling. If the town requires a permit, we file early and place inspections on the calendar. We coordinate with the electrician and your gas or oil provider so no one waits.
- Set equipment and venting. The boiler is leveled on a solid base. We install a low-loss header or primary–secondary piping when it is needed, then run intake and exhaust with proper slope and clearance.
- Fuel and power. Fuel lines are sized to the nameplate load with shutoffs and a sediment trap where appropriate. We land a dedicated circuit with a labeled disconnect and verify grounding and bonding.
- Fill, purge, and tune. Each zone is flushed and purged of air. We set the expansion tank charge, confirm cold fill pressure, balance circulator speeds, and tune combustion to the manufacturer’s window.
- Controls and proof. Thermostats are programmed, limits are set, and every safety is tested. We watch a full heat cycle and record startup readings so you know how the system should perform.
Floors and pathways stay protected, and the old unit leaves with us. Want an install you can plan around with clear arrival windows? Call (508) 310-0955 to get on the schedule.

Preventative Maintenance
Protect pressure and flow. Expansion tanks lose charge over time. We test and set pre-charge, confirm cold fill pressure, and keep relief valves dry during a full cycle.
Mind water quality. Minerals and oxygen shorten component life. We check water, add inhibitor when suitable, and recommend steps that match your piping and boiler type.
Keep air out. Automatic vents and dirt separators need periodic checks. Clear strainers, verify purge points, and avoid topping up the system unless a repair requires it.
A brief annual visit catches sensor drift, weak circulators, and vent issues before winter. Want a plan that fits a single-family home? Call (508) 310-0955 to compare maintenance options.
FAQs
Price depends on the heat loss of the home, the type of boiler, venting path, number of zones, and control strategy. After a short walkthrough, we provide a written estimate that separates equipment, labor, and any electrical or fuel line updates. For a clear, line-item quote, call (508) 310-0955.
Straight swaps often finish in a day once materials are on site. Wall-hung condensing systems with new venting or added zones can take longer. We set the schedule in writing so you can plan around it. Need a firm start and finish? Call (508) 310-0955 and we will map the timeline.
Plan on an annual check before heating season. We clean sensors, verify combustion, test safeties, and confirm pump performance and expansion tank charge. Want reminders and set pricing? Call (508) 310-0955 to enroll in seasonal service.
Oversizing the boiler, skipping primary-secondary piping when required, venting without proper slope, ignoring water quality, and leaving air in long loops. We design around those risks and document readings at startup. Have concerns about a past install? Call (508) 310-0955 for an assessment.
