Off oil, propane or gas
Oil & Gas Heating Replacement in Boston
Swap that worn-out boiler or furnace for a heat pump, and let us handle what happens to the old system and the rebate forms.
Two Ways to Leave the Old System Behind
When a heat pump replaces an oil, propane or gas system, there are really two ways to go, and we settle which one before anything is ordered. The first is a clean break: the heat pump takes over the zone and the boiler or furnace gets pulled out or permanently disconnected. That is the route usually tied to the larger Mass Save rebate, provided the house also meets the weatherization and other program conditions. The second keeps the old system as a backup. In that case integrated controls let the heat pump run the house and only bring the boiler or furnace on in deep cold, which is how the program expects a backup to behave. Whichever you choose gets written into the proposal, together with its effect on the rebate. And the replacement still needs designing around the house. Old boilers usually fed radiators, and a heat pump delivers heat differently, so we size it from real heat loss and choose ducted, ductless or both. If there is an oil tank, we talk about it on the first call. We handle the swap, the controls and the paperwork, and the workmanship is covered by our 10-year workmanship warranty.
What a Replacement Covers
Changing fuels involves more than new equipment. Here is what we take on.
Existing system review
Fuel, age, zones and how the current boiler or furnace serves the house.
Remove or keep
A clear decision on removal, disconnection or backup use.
Heat pump design
New equipment sized from heat loss, ducted, ductless or mixed.
Integrated controls
If the old unit stays, wiring so it fires only when the mercury really drops.
Oil tank plan
What happens to the tank settled early and written into the scope.
Rebate rules met
The approach checked against Mass Save requirements before you commit.
