Have you had your boiler serviced for the season yet?
Have you had your boiler serviced this year yet?
No? Why not?
Hah?
Gas-fired steam boiler startups must include at least the following to truly be considered an effective service:
Check
-Thermostat operation
-Emergency power switch
-Boiler power switch
-Visual Water leak inspection
-Carbonized heat exchanger
-Gas tightness/leaks
-Vent damper automatic operation
-Spill switch
-Roll out switch
-Thermocouple amperage reading
-Clock gas meter
-Carbon monoxide (CO) test
-Draft test
Service
-LWCO(s)
-Pigtail(s) – remove and clean
-Flush boiler-water valved outlets
-Skim out boiler-water surface oils
-Automatic water feeder
-Pressuretrol/Vaporstat
-Measure & set gas control valve/gas manifold pressures
-Remove and clean burners
-Expose chimney base, check for debris, clean out door
-Sight glass assembly, tube and seals
-Fresh air intake grating/filter
-Gas piping / valve tagging
-Combustion Analysis (optional w/ fee)

Well, it depends what the oil company considers “servicing”, but assuming they’re doing a thorough job, I don’t think you could do any more than you already are.

We have a hot water radiator system with an oil burner in a two-family house and every year the oil company services it in May or August. We get the chimney cleaned every two years. Master Plumber, are we overlooking anything?

It generally takes about 90 minutes or so and the boiler is off for most of that time.
I won’t discuss pricing here. It’s different for differently sized and types of boilers anyway.

I’d like to know the cost of the service also . How long does the service take and is the boiler out of commission the whole time?

Yes you can.

Can you do that without installing a second set of wires going to the boiler or furnace?Can you do that without installing a second set of eires going to the boiler or furnace?

@daveinbedstuy: Just install a second mechanical thermostat and set it to 55 degrees or so. That way, if the fancy digital one fails, you don’t lose all your pipes.

MP, what does a startup service like that cost for a gas steam boiler?

Also, check the battery level on your programmable thermostat. If you go away in the winter and the batteries die, you’ll lose heat!!!!

I’m always amazed at how many people just turn off their thermostat at the end of a heating season and turn it on again at the next. Amazingly, they get away with it, until they don’t
