You Have No Heat

Check the basics, then keep the pipes warm.

  1. Thermostat: set to "Heat" and a few degrees above room temperature.
  2. Boiler switch: the red emergency switch near the boiler or at the basement stairs is ON.
  3. Breaker: the boiler breaker hasn't tripped.
  4. Still cold? Protect your pipes:
    • Open cabinet doors under sinks.
    • Let faucets on outside walls drip slowly.
    • Keep the family in one warm room.

Using a space heater? Keep it 3 ft from anything that can burn and never leave it on unattended.

What Happens When We Get the Call

Our Emergency Response, Step by Step

Four-step flow:

  1. You Call

    A real person answers, not a voicemail or a menu. We confirm the problem and your address, dispatch the closest licensed plumber, and walk you through safety steps over the phone.

  2. We Help You Stabilize

    While your plumber is on the way, we tell you what to do and what not to do, including how to keep your pipes from freezing if the heat is out.

  3. We Arrive Fast

    Our trucks carry common boiler parts: ignition components, low-water cutoffs, circulator pumps and emergency supplies. Most boiler emergencies are fixed in a single visit.

  4. We Test Combustion Safety

    Every emergency visit includes a carbon monoxide test. We never restart your boiler until we've confirmed it's safe to run.

Emergency Boiler Service FAQs

Yes. From October through April, we have a licensed plumber on emergency call every hour of every day — nights, weekends, holidays.
After-hours visits include a service call premium — but it's flat-rate and quoted before we start work. No invoice surprises.
Sometimes. If we have a compatible unit in stock and the install is straightforward, yes. More often, we'll do a temporary fix or repair to restore heat and schedule full replacement within 1–3 days.
Yes. We work with property managers and landlords daily. Communication with the tenant is professional and brief. Billing is clear and itemized, sent to you.
Yes. Shut the water supply valve to the boiler (usually above the unit). If it's gas, shut the gas valve too. Then call (973) 900-0430. Don't try to "wait it out" — leaks accelerate water damage every hour.
Treat it as if you do. Leave the house, don't touch anything electrical, call (973) 900-0430 from outside. If the smell is strong, call your gas company or 911. Don't wait to "see if it gets worse."
