Save your time and look elsewhere for reliable hvac services. I drove an hour each way to meet a representative of this company to get a quote for Air Conditioning installation. Their service person did not show up to the appointment despite having made and confirmed the appointment more than a week in advance. The company operators were not able to contact the rep, and no one ever called me back to explain the no-show or apologize, or attempt to make it right. Really disappointing customer service.

Great Experience with excellent technicians Jason and his assistant who explained everything and how to keep up with filter replacements every 2-3 months myself. They did annual care and made sure that it was efficient and each vent was correctly positioned and opened. Went above and beyond and did annual cleaning so that’s off my list! Will be recommending him and this women/veteran owned business to anyone who need help with their HVAC system.

Should You Repair or Replace Your Boiler?

Air Done Right recommends boiler repair services when your system is under 10 to 15 years old, the repair cost is well below 30–50% of a new unit, and issues are minor or infrequent. If your boiler is over 15 to 20 years old, requires frequent or costly repairs, or you notice rising energy bills and declining comfort, replacement is usually the more reliable and efficient solution. We evaluate each situation by considering system age, repair cost compared to replacement, the frequency of breakdowns, and overall performance, so you receive the most sensible and cost-effective option for your property. For detailed guidance on when to choose repair or replacement, see the ‘When to Repair Your Boiler?’ and ‘When Might Boiler Replacement Be Better?’ sections.

When to Repair Your Boiler?

Air Done Right recommends boiler repair services when you notice specific warning signs such as strange noises, water leaks, low pressure, yellow pilot flame, bad smells, or no hot water, and your system is less than 15 years old with repair costs below 50% of replacement value. Acting quickly on these issues can prevent total system failure and help you avoid more expensive repairs or a full replacement. If your boiler is older, has recurring problems, or the repair cost is high, replacement may be the better option – see our replacement guidance for those cases.

Strange noises from air or pump issues

Water leaks from broken seals or valves

Yellow pilot flame or combustion smells

No hot water or heating output

When Might Boiler Replacement Be Better?

Boiler repair services from Air Done Right are usually the right choice for systems under 15 years old, but replacement is often better for boilers older than 15 years or those with persistent issues. Certain warning signs make replacement the more reliable and cost-effective option, especially when ongoing repairs, high costs, or safety concerns are present. Upgrading to a new boiler can improve efficiency, lower future repair bills, and provide more reliable heating for your property.

Air Conditioning FAQs

What is Boiler Service?

Boiler service covers the repair, installation, replacement, and maintenance of gas, steam, oil, and combi boiler systems. It includes diagnosing heating problems, restoring lost heat or hot water, upgrading aging equipment, and routine tune-ups to keep the system running safely and efficiently through the heating season.
Most boilers last 15–20 years with regular maintenance, though well-maintained cast iron systems in older Philadelphia rowhomes can run longer. Lifespan depends on boiler type, water quality, how consistently the system is serviced, and how heavily it’s used during the heating season.
Yes. Boilers, paired with radiators or baseboard piping, are one of the most common whole-home heating methods in Philadelphia rowhomes, especially in properties with original hydronic or steam systems already in place.
Most boiler repairs are completed in a single visit, often within 1–3 hours once the fault is diagnosed. Repairs requiring a special-order part, such as a proprietary control board or discontinued component, can take longer.
A standard boiler replacement is usually completed in about one day. Installations involving new piping, permit-required upgrades, or complex row-home mechanical spaces can take longer.
The right boiler size depends on a full heating-load calculation, not square footage alone, insulation, window count, ceiling height, number of zones, and whether the property is a rowhome or detached home all factor in. A technician assesses these details on-site before recommending a system size.
Common issues include no heat or uneven heating, water leaks, pilot light or ignition failures, thermostat faults, and aging radiators or piping, particularly in older rowhomes still running original hydronic or steam systems.
Steam boilers heat water into steam that travels through pipes to radiators, common in older Philadelphia properties with cast iron radiators. Hot water (hydronic) boilers circulate heated water through pipes using a circulator pump, typically feeding radiators or baseboard heating. The two systems use different components and require different diagnostic approaches.
For homes with older, lower-efficiency boilers, upgrading can meaningfully reduce fuel bills over time, especially given Philadelphia’s long heating season. The upfront cost is higher, so it’s worth reviewing your current system’s age, repair history, and fuel usage with a technician to see whether the payback period makes sense for your property.
Check the thermostat settings and breaker or fuse first. If there’s no obvious cause, or if you notice a gas odor, carbon monoxide alarm, or scorch marks, treat it as urgent — turn off the system, evacuate if there’s a gas or CO concern, and contact us or emergency services right away rather than attempting a repair yourself.
