A pair of high-efficiency condensing boilers installed by SOS in a Rhode Island basement

The install is where efficiency is won or lost.

A 95% efficient boiler installed carelessly runs like an 80% one. Right-sizing from a real heat-loss calculation, proper primary/secondary piping, outdoor reset dialed in, condensate handled correctly. That's the difference between the sticker rating and your actual gas bill. It's also why we treat installation as the craft it is.

What we install

  • Wall-hung condensing boilers: Viessmann and Navien, factory-certified
  • Combi units: heat plus endless domestic hot water from one box, no tank
  • Conventional replacements: when the house and budget call for like-for-like
  • Oil-to-gas conversions: piping, venting, permits and utility coordination, end to end
  • Zoning & smart controls: outdoor reset, smart thermostats, room-by-room comfort

What the flat quote includes

The unit, piping and venting, code items (expansion, relief, gas sizing), removal of the old system, permits, inspection and commissioning, with combustion analysis documented at startup. Old boiler out in the morning, heat back on by dinner on most single-day swaps.

How a rescue works

From your call to fixed, in four moves.

Signal 01, dispatch

You call. A person answers.

No phone tree, no callback queue. Describe the problem and we dispatch the nearest tech, same-day for most calls, immediately for emergencies.

Signal 02, diagnose

Upfront price before we open a wall.

The tech diagnoses on site, walks you through options, and quotes flat pricing before any work begins. You approve, or you don't. No surprises on the invoice.

Signal 03, fix

Fixed right, left clean.

Stocked vans mean most repairs finish in one visit. We protect floors, wear boot covers, and leave the space cleaner than we found it.

Signal 04, guarantee

Backed in writing.

Workmanship is guaranteed and every tech is licensed and insured in Rhode Island. If something isn't right, we come back. That's the whole policy.

Good questions

Asked before every boiler installations job.

How much does a new boiler cost in Rhode Island?

It ranges with size, venting and system type, so we quote flat and all-in after a heat-loss visit. The quote includes permits, code items and haul-away, the number you approve is the invoice.

How long does installation take?

Most straight swaps are a single day: old unit out in the morning, new system commissioned by evening. Conversions and repiping projects run two to three days, scheduled so you're never without heat overnight in winter.

What's a combi boiler and should I want one?

One wall-hung unit doing heat and endless domestic hot water. Ideal where the tank is aging anyway or floor space matters. Big simultaneous-use households sometimes do better with separates, sizing tells the truth.

Are there rebates for high-efficiency boilers?

Efficiency incentives change year to year in Rhode Island, ask when we quote and we'll walk you through what the current programs cover and handle the paperwork where we can.

Whatever's leaking, clogged or cold, send the signal.
