FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT BOILER INSTALLATION

Boiler installation costs vary based on system type and home requirements. Standard boilers typically range from $5,000-8,000 installed, while high-efficiency combi boilers run $7,000-12,000. The $1,200 UGI rebate for combi boilers significantly reduces cost. We provide detailed quotes after assessing your specific needs and existing system.

Combination (combi) boilers provide both space heating and domestic hot water from one high-efficiency unit, eliminating the need for a separate water heater. UGI offers the $1,200 rebate because combis maximize efficiency by condensing technology for both functions. They're perfect for saving space and reducing energy consumption.

Boilers typically last 20-30 years with proper maintenance, compared to 15-20 years for furnaces. The longer lifespan results from fewer moving parts and no heat exchanger stress from rapid temperature changes. Cast iron boilers can last even longer. Our 20+ years of experience shows well-maintained boilers providing decades of reliable service.

Yes, converting from steam to hot water improves efficiency, comfort, and control. The process involves replacing the boiler, modifying piping, and potentially changing radiators. While more involved than simple replacement, conversions provide better comfort, lower operating costs, and modern zone control capabilities.

Proper sizing requires professional heat loss calculations considering your home's size, insulation, windows, and Harrisburg's climate. Unlike the "bigger is better" myth, oversized boilers cycle excessively, reducing efficiency and comfort. We perform detailed calculations ensuring your new boiler matches your home's exact heating needs.

In Pennsylvania's cold climate, high-efficiency condensing boilers (90-95% AFUE) typically provide excellent returns. While costing $2,000-4,000 more initially, they save 20-30% on heating bills. Combined with available rebates, payback often occurs within 5-7 years, with savings continuing throughout the boiler's longer lifespan.

Traditional boilers provide heating only. For cooling, you'd need a separate air conditioning system or ductless mini-splits. However, some homeowners find radiant heat so comfortable they need less cooling. We can design integrated solutions providing both heating and cooling to match your comfort needs.

Boilers need annual professional maintenance including cleaning, water treatment, pressure checks, safety testing, and efficiency verification. Between professional visits, homeowners should monitor pressure gauges and check for leaks. Proper maintenance extends life significantly - we service boilers still running after 40+ years.

Yes! Zoning is one of boiler systems' best features. We can create separate zones for different areas using zone valves or circulators. Each zone gets its own thermostat for customized comfort and energy savings. Zoning works with both new installations and many existing systems.

Most residential boiler installations complete in 2-3 days. Day one involves removing old equipment and installing the new boiler. Day two includes piping connections and controls. Simple replacements might finish in one long day, while complex installations with significant piping changes may take longer.

Both NTI and Navien manufacture excellent high-efficiency boilers. NTI focuses on robust commercial-grade construction with stainless steel heat exchangers. Navien emphasizes innovative features like built-in pumps and user-friendly controls. We'll recommend the best match for your specific needs and preferences.

Yes, we obtain all necessary permits and schedule required inspections for your boiler installation. This includes gas permits, plumbing permits, and any structural permits if needed. Our familiarity with Harrisburg area requirements ensures code-compliant installation and smooth inspection processes.

Modern boilers work excellently with smart thermostats, especially systems with outdoor reset controls. Smart thermostats optimize comfort and efficiency through learning algorithms and remote access. Some boiler manufacturers offer proprietary smart controls designed specifically for their systems' capabilities.

We handle complete removal and disposal of old boilers according to environmental regulations. This includes draining systems, disconnecting piping, and safe removal even from challenging basement locations. For very old boilers, we ensure proper handling of any asbestos-containing materials following safety protocols.

Our 20+ years serving Harrisburg, PA includes extensive boiler expertise many companies lack. We're factory-trained on NTI and Navien systems, understand hydronic heating intricacies, and deliver quality installations. Combined with Hearth financing and rebate assistance, we make upgrading to efficient boiler comfort affordable and stress-free.
