Your heating system should work when you need it most. That means no cold mornings wondering if your boiler will start, no sky-high energy bills from an inefficient system, and no surprise costs when something goes wrong.
When we install your new boiler, you get predictable heating costs and reliable warmth all winter long. Modern, high-efficiency boilers can cut your energy bills by 10-20% compared to older systems. You’ll sleep better knowing your heating system has a 1-year labor warranty backing it up.
Most importantly, you’ll have heat when those brutal Massachusetts winters hit. No more worrying about system failures during the coldest days of the year.
We’ve been serving Melrose and surrounding communities since 2007. We understand the unique challenges of heating older New England homes, from Victorian houses with original radiator systems to newer construction requiring modern efficiency standards.
Our team knows Melrose’s housing stock inside and out. Many homes in areas like Wyoming Hill and Cedar Park still rely on older boiler systems that need specialized knowledge to service and replace properly. We’ve worked in these neighborhoods for years, building relationships with homeowners who value honest service and fair pricing.
When you call us, you’re working with licensed professionals who live and work in your community. We’re not a national chain – we’re your neighbors, and we’ll be here when you need us.
We start with a free assessment of your current system and heating needs. Our technician will evaluate your home’s size, existing infrastructure, and energy efficiency goals to recommend the right boiler for your situation.
Once you approve the upfront estimate, we handle all permits and scheduling. Most installations take 1-2 days, depending on whether we’re doing a direct replacement or upgrading your system. We’ll remove your old boiler, install the new unit, and test everything thoroughly before we leave.
After installation, we walk you through your new system’s operation and maintenance requirements. You’ll receive all warranty documentation and our contact information for any future service needs. Our job isn’t finished until you’re completely comfortable with your new heating system.

Every boiler installation includes system sizing calculations, proper venting, and connections to your existing radiator or baseboard heating system. We work with all major brands and can install gas, oil, or electric boilers depending on your home’s setup and preferences.
Melrose’s mix of older and newer homes means we regularly work with everything from cast iron radiators in century-old houses to modern baseboard systems. We understand local building codes and work with the city’s inspection requirements to ensure your installation meets all safety standards.
Your installation includes a thorough system flush, pressure testing, and efficiency calibration. We also provide a free main sewer line camera inspection for new customers, helping you identify potential issues before they become expensive problems. This comprehensive approach ensures your entire home’s systems work together efficiently.
Boiler installation costs in Melrose typically range from $4,000 to $9,000, depending on the system type, size, and complexity of installation. High-efficiency models cost more upfront but can save 10-20% on energy bills long-term.
We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees, so you’ll know exactly what your installation costs before we start work. The final price depends on factors like your home’s size, existing infrastructure, and whether you’re upgrading from an older system that requires additional modifications.
Most Melrose homeowners find that investing in a high-efficiency boiler pays for itself within 5-7 years through lower energy costs, especially with Massachusetts’ rising fuel prices.
Most boiler installations in Melrose take 1-2 days to complete. Direct replacements with the same type and size of boiler typically take one full day, while system upgrades or fuel type changes may require an additional day.
The timeline depends on your specific situation. If we’re replacing an oil boiler with a gas system, we’ll need time for gas line installation and proper venting modifications. Older homes sometimes require additional work to bring systems up to current code requirements.
We’ll give you an accurate timeline during your free assessment, and we always clean up completely before leaving your home. You’ll have heat restored the same day in most cases.
Many older Melrose homes work well with high-efficiency gas boilers that can connect to existing radiator systems. These systems provide even heat distribution and work efficiently with the cast iron radiators common in Victorian and colonial-style homes.
For homes without gas service, modern oil boilers offer excellent efficiency and reliability. Electric boilers work well for smaller homes but aren’t typically cost-effective for larger properties due to Massachusetts electricity rates.
We’ll evaluate your home’s existing infrastructure, including radiator capacity and distribution system, to recommend the most efficient and cost-effective solution for your specific situation.
Yes, all boiler installations include a 1-year labor warranty covering our installation work. This warranty covers any issues related to our installation, including connections, venting, and system setup.
Your new boiler will also come with the manufacturer’s equipment warranty, which typically covers parts for 5-10 years depending on the brand and model. We handle all warranty claims and service calls during the warranty period.
Additionally, we offer ongoing maintenance services to keep your system running efficiently and prevent problems before they occur. Regular maintenance helps ensure your warranties remain valid and extends your boiler’s lifespan.
Absolutely. We provide boiler installation services year-round, including emergency installations during winter months. We understand that heating system failures don’t wait for convenient timing.
During winter installations, we work efficiently to minimize the time your home is without heat. We often can complete installations while maintaining some heat through temporary measures or by working in stages to keep portions of your system operational.
Our 24/7 emergency service means we can respond quickly when your heating system fails during the coldest months. We stock common boiler models and parts to minimize wait times for emergency replacements.
Boiler installations in Melrose require permits from the city’s building department, and gas boiler installations need additional gas permits. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our installation service.
The permit process typically takes 3-5 business days, though emergency installations can sometimes receive expedited permits. We’re familiar with Melrose’s specific requirements and have established relationships with local inspectors.
All installations must meet Massachusetts state plumbing and heating codes, as well as local Melrose requirements. We ensure your installation passes all required inspections and provide you with all necessary documentation for your records.
