Boiler Replacement, Before and After

North Metro, MN

Boiler Replacement, Before and After

This job started with an older boiler that had reached the end of the road. We took it out, set a new boiler in the same spot, and redid the piping around it so everything is clean, accessible and easy to service down the road. The photos tell the story better than we can: same basement, brand new heat. The before shot is in the gallery below. If you've been told your boiler needs replacing, call us before you sign anything. We test first, quote repair and replacement side by side, and replacements carry a 2-year labor warranty.

High-Efficiency Furnace Install

High-Efficiency Furnace Install

A new high-efficiency gas furnace, installed and vented. The first photo is mid-install with the work light on; the second is the finished setup. Before we quote a new furnace, we look at the house, not just the old unit, so the new one is sized to actually keep up in January. Installs come with a 2-year labor warranty, and we'll match a competitor's written quote.

Central Air Replacement

Central Air Replacement

Nick and Rick with a freshly installed central air condenser (plus the homeowner's dog, who supervised). Most AC replacements are finished within a week of saying yes. We'll tell you honestly whether your old unit is worth repairing first, and quote the new system upfront.

Furnace and Water Heater Replacement

North Metro, MN

Furnace and Water Heater Replacement

When the furnace and the water heater are the same age, it often makes sense to replace them together and save a second visit. That's what this homeowner chose: a new gas furnace and a new water heater side by side. We'll always quote the options separately too. If one of them still has years left, we'll say so.

Oil-Fired Boiler Service

North Metro, MN

Oil-Fired Boiler Service

An oil-fired boiler with its burner, due for service. Fuel oil equipment is getting harder to find a good tech for, and it's a big part of what we do. An annual cleaning and tune-up keeps an oil burner efficient and catches small problems before January does. Some of our customers have had us on the same oil system for decades.

Keeping an Older Oil Furnace Running

North Metro, MN

Keeping an Older Oil Furnace Running

Not every system needs to be replaced. Here we're working on an older oil furnace to keep it running safely through another season. We'll always give you an honest read on whether an old system is worth fixing. Plenty of customers have found out their "dead" equipment only needed parts.

Boiler Install in a Tiled Utility Room

North Metro, MN

Boiler Install in a Tiled Utility Room

A new boiler set in a tight, tiled utility room, with the venting and piping run cleanly so it's easy to service. Boilers are our specialty: hot water, steam and radiant floor systems, repair and replacement.
