Replacing aging steam boilers (often 40+ years old in older homes). Properly sized for radiator load.

Annual tune-up, combustion testing, safety inspection. Extends life and protects warranty.

No heat in winter is an emergency. We dispatch 24/7 during heating season — nights, weekends, holidays.

Cold radiators, leaks, valve issues, banging steam radiators, baseboard heating problems.
What it looks like: A boiler that heats water and circulates it through radiators or baseboard heating. Usually a single tank with copper pipes running to/from the radiators.
Common in: Homes built from the 1970s to today, plus retrofitted older homes.
Common issues: Low water pressure, expansion tank failure, circulator pump problems, leaks.
What it looks like: A larger boiler with big metal pipes running up the wall, connected to cast-iron radiators. Steam fills the radiators, releases heat, then condenses back to water.
Common in: Older Union County homes (1900–1950 builds), especially in Elizabeth, Hillside, Roselle, and parts of Union.
Common issues: Low water cutoff failure, banging pipes, uneven heat between radiators, water hammer, sight glass issues.
What it looks like: Single compact unit that does both heating and domestic hot water. Often wall-mounted.
Common in: Newer installs, conversions, and homes wanting to save space.
Common issues: Heat exchanger scaling, flow rate issues during simultaneous demand, diverter valve failure.
Not sure what kind you have? Call (973) 900-0430 — we'll figure it out over the phone in 30 seconds based on a few questions about your radiators and the boiler itself.
First: stay warm. Layer up, close interior doors, use space heaters if you have them (but be careful with electrical load). Second: check the basics — is the thermostat set high enough? Is the boiler emergency switch on? Is the breaker tripped? If those are all fine, call (973) 900-0430. We dispatch 24/7 in heating season.
Often yes — old steam and hot water boilers are workhorses. We've seen 50-year-old boilers still running well. But there's a tipping point: efficiency drops, parts get harder to find, and emergency replacement in January costs far more than planned replacement in May. We'll honestly assess yours and tell you if you've got years left or it's time to plan.
Almost always a fixable problem — usually related to pitch, condensate return, or a bad steam trap. Banging isn't normal — it's stress on the system. Worth fixing.
Common in older Union County apartment buildings. We work with property managers on emergency response, scheduled maintenance, and full system upgrades — single-point contact, clear documentation for each property.

40+ years on Union County boilers — hot water, steam, old, new. We know what fails in these old systems.
No heat in January isn't a "we'll see you Monday" situation. We dispatch when you need us.
