Boiler Repairs

Boilers are a major part of life here in the Northeast, and they’re a big part of what we do at MVP Plumbing. Whether your home uses oil, natural gas, or propane, we work on them all. Service, repair, and replacement offered for all major types of boiler systems. Keep your home warm and your hot water flowing – especially during those cold Connecticut winters.
Common Boiler Repairs

One of the most frequent issues we handle is what we call the “water package.” This includes a group of essential safety and maintenance components like the automatic fill valve, backflow preventer, safety relief valve, and expansion tank. We even offer this as a bundled service because it’s such a common repair.

We also help homeowners dealing with error codes, water around the boiler, soot buildup, or systems that just aren’t keeping up. In many cases, the issue is age-related - parts wear out over time, and boilers that are 15 to 20 years old often reach a point where replacement becomes more cost-effective than continued repairs. Our goal is always to be honest with you about what makes the most financial and long-term sense.

Types of Boilers We Service

We work on all the main fuel types used in our area:

Many of our jobs involve converting homes from oil to gas or propane, especially as customers look for cleaner, more efficient solutions. And when we replace a unit, we don’t just copy what was there—we properly size the system based on the current heating needs of your home.

We install trusted brands like Burnham and Lochinvar, depending on your budget, fuel source, and space. And yes—if your boiler is making strange noises, we can absolutely help with that, too.

Recommended Boiler Service Intervals

We recommend servicing your boiler once a year, ideally in the fall before the heating season kicks in. That way, we can catch small issues before they become emergencies—and help extend the life of your system.

With annual maintenance, we’re able to stay ahead of problems and ensure your system runs efficiently, safely, and reliably all winter long. It’s one of the best investments you can make for long-term home comfort.
