Boiler Repair
Hot water and steam boiler repairs.
About Boiler RepairHeritage Hill is the historic district on the hill east of downtown, with large 19th- and early 20th-century homes, many still heated by boilers and radiators.
The short answer
Heritage Hill boiler, radiator and furnace service comes from our office on 3 Mile Rd NW. We repair and replace boilers, balance radiators, service older furnaces, and add ductless cooling that avoids cutting into historic plaster, with the phone answered 24 hours a day.
What we see here
Many Heritage Hill houses still heat with hot water or steam boilers and cast-iron radiators. When a boiler is replaced, a modern high-efficiency unit can keep the radiators while cutting fuel use, and balancing the system ends the cold-room, hot-room pattern big old houses are known for.
Cooling is the harder question in a house with no ductwork and walls nobody wants opened. Ductless heads placed carefully, run through closets and attics, add air conditioning without disturbing the original plaster and trim.

Heritage Hill has around 4,356 residents, and its association, founded in 1968, saved nearly 75% of the neighborhood's homes from demolition. The Frank Lloyd Wright Meyer May House there dates from 1909. Houses of that age and size are where boiler work, radiator balancing and careful cooling retrofits make up most of our calls, and where owners care as much about protecting the house as about the equipment.
