Start Now and Save
There is nothing better for your heating and/or air conditioning system than annual maintenance. Annual maintenance allows your system to work at peak efficiency year in and year out. A system that is maintained annually experiences considerably fewer breakdowns.
This virtually eliminates the need for you to pay for costly repairs. You’ll enjoy the peace of mind in knowing that your system is saving you money on your utility bills every time it comes on. In some instances, the energy savings are enough to pay the cost of the planned annual maintenance service.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do boilers heat a home?
Boilers heat water and distribute it through radiators, baseboards, or radiant floor systems to warm your home. Unlike forced-air systems, boilers provide even, consistent heat without blowing air or allergens around.
What are signs that my boiler needs repair?
Common signs include lack of heat, strange banging or whistling noises, water leaks, rising energy bills, or inconsistent room temperatures. If you notice any of these, it’s best to schedule a professional inspection.
How long do boilers last in Northern VA homes?
Most boilers last 15 to 20 years with proper maintenance. Northern Virginia’s winter climate can put added stress on older systems, so regular service helps extend their life and avoid breakdowns.
Can I switch from a furnace to a boiler system?
It’s possible, but it requires significant changes to your home’s heating infrastructure. If you’re considering converting to a boiler system, we’ll evaluate your space and walk you through the pros, cons, and investment involved.
What’s the difference between a boiler and a water heater?
A boiler heats water to warm your home, while a water heater supplies hot water for bathing, cooking, and cleaning. Some combination systems can handle both, but they serve different purposes.
Do boilers require annual maintenance?
Yes. Annual maintenance helps prevent system failure, improves efficiency, and ensures safe operation. We recommend a check-up before winter hits to keep your home warm and your system in good shape.
Are modern boilers more efficient than older models?
Absolutely. New high-efficiency boilers use less fuel, produce more consistent heat, and often qualify for energy rebates. Replacing an outdated unit can result in significant long-term savings.
What types of boilers do you install or service?
We work with gas, oil, and electric boilers—both standard and high-efficiency models. Whether it’s a new installation, repair, or maintenance, our experienced techs know how to get the most from your system.
Can a boiler be used with a smart thermostat?
Yes, many modern boiler systems can integrate with programmable or smart thermostats for better temperature control and energy savings. We’ll help you find a compatible model and handle the installation.
What should I do if my boiler starts leaking?
Turn off the system and call us right away. Leaks can signal pressure problems, failed components, or corrosion, and addressing them early can prevent costly damage or safety risks.
