Hot water boilers, steam boilers, oil-fired boilers, and combi systems.

AmeriHeat installs new boilers across Rochester NY and the surrounding area. Every replacement sized to the actual heat load of the home. Free written estimate before any work begins.

Most Common
Hot Water Boiler

Heats water in a closed loop, distributes heat through radiators or baseboard. Gas or oil-fired. Very common in Rochester's older housing stock. Quiet, comfortable heat.

Older Homes
Steam Boiler

Heats water to steam, distributes through one or two-pipe radiator systems. Still common in pre-1950s Rochester housing. We installed a Weil-McLain steam boiler in Ontario NY replacing a 25-year-old Dunkirk.

Efficiency Option
Combi Boiler

Handles space heating AND domestic hot water in one unit. No separate water heater needed. We installed a Laars high-efficiency combi boiler in Victor NY: both heat and hot water from a single system.

New boiler installation in Rochester NY: what we install and what to expect.

AmeriHeat installs new boilers across Rochester NY and the surrounding Monroe, Wayne, and Ontario County area. If you are searching for a new boiler installation Rochester or rochester new boiler installation, this page covers the types of boilers we install, what makes Rochester homes a specific context for boiler work, and what to expect through the installation process.

Why Rochester has so many boilers

Rochester's housing stock skews older. A significant portion of Monroe County homes were built before 1970, when hot water boilers and steam boilers were the standard heating system in the Northeast. Many of these systems are still running (some 40 to 60 years old) and are now reaching the end of their useful life. When homeowners in Pittsford, Victor, Webster, or the Wayne County area start looking for a new boiler installation Rochester NY, it is usually because an aging boiler has become unreliable, inefficient, or failed completely.

Oil-fired boilers are still common in the more rural parts of Monroe County and throughout Wayne County, where natural gas does not reach every property. We service and replace oil-fired boilers across Macedon, Ontario, Williamson, Marion, and Palmyra, and we handle oil-to-gas conversions for homes where natural gas is available at the street.

What a new boiler installation in Rochester NY involves

A new boiler installation is not just swapping equipment. Proper installation includes load calculation: sizing the new boiler to the actual heat loss of the home, not simply matching the BTU rating of the old unit. Oversized boilers short-cycle, which reduces efficiency and causes premature wear. Undersized boilers cannot keep the home warm on the coldest Rochester days. We calculate the right size before recommending equipment.

The installation itself includes removing the old boiler, installing the new unit, reworking supply and return piping where needed, connecting gas or oil lines, installing new controls, pressure testing, and a full system test across all zones before we sign off. Permits are pulled where required. The free estimate includes the permit cost so there are no surprises at invoice time.

Steam boiler installation and replacement

Steam boilers require specific expertise that many Rochester HVAC companies no longer have. A steam system operates at a different pressure than a hot water system, has different pipe sizing requirements, and uses specific controls (pressuretrol, low-water cutoff, air vents on one-pipe systems) that need to be matched correctly to the new boiler. Replacing a steam boiler with an incorrectly sized or configured unit results in uneven heating, water hammer, and venting problems that can take months to diagnose.

The Ontario NY steam boiler in our recent jobs section is a real example: a 25-year-old Dunkirk steam boiler replaced with a new Weil-McLain gas steam boiler, including full piping work. We sized the replacement to the radiation in the home, not the old boiler's BTU rating, and matched the controls to the existing one-pipe system. That is what a proper steam boiler replacement looks like.

Repair vs replacement: what we tell you honestly

Not every boiler issue requires a new installation. If a boiler is under 15 years old and the repair cost is reasonable relative to the system's remaining useful life, repair often makes more sense than replacement. We give you a repair cost and a replacement cost, explain the condition of the system honestly, and let you make the decision. If a 30-year-old boiler has a heat exchanger failure, replacement is likely the right call. If a 10-year-old boiler needs a circulator pump or zone valve, repair makes more sense. You get that assessment in writing before any work begins.

Brands we install for new boiler replacement: Weil-McLain, Laars, and Burnham for hot water and steam boilers. Thermo-Pride for oil-fired systems. We service and maintain all major brands regardless of who made them. Free written estimate with equipment model, BTU capacity, and installation cost before any work begins.

Boiler service and repair across Rochester NY

Beyond new boiler installation, we handle boiler repair and service across the Rochester area. Clogged oil pump screens (a real Victor oil boiler maintenance find in our recent jobs section), pressure relief valve failures, zone valve failures, circulator pump issues, and annual boiler cleaning and combustion testing. Rochester's cold winters mean boiler failures cannot wait: if your boiler is not functioning properly, call 585 454 8422 and Justin or Colby assesses the situation on the call.

Annual boiler cleaning and combustion testing is particularly important for oil-fired boilers. The oil pump screen, nozzle, electrodes, and heat exchanger all need periodic service to keep the system running at rated efficiency. Skipping annual service on an oil boiler leads to the exact kind of clogged pump screen failure we found in the Victor service call. We carry common boiler repair parts on the truck for most oil and gas boiler makes, and we document the system condition in writing after every service visit.

Boiler installation FAQ.

Direct answers to what Rochester homeowners ask before scheduling a boiler estimate.

Does AmeriHeat install new boilers in Rochester NY?+
Yes. AmeriHeat installs new boilers across Rochester NY and the surrounding Monroe, Wayne, and Ontario County area. We install hot water boilers, steam boilers, oil-fired boilers, and combi boilers. Free written estimate with equipment, size, and cost before any work begins. Call 585 454 8422.
What types of boilers do you install?+
We install hot water boilers, steam boilers, and combi boilers (which handle both space heating and domestic hot water). For fuel systems: both gas and oil-fired boilers. Brands we install include Weil-McLain, Laars, and Burnham. For oil-fired systems we install Thermo-Pride. We service and maintain all major brands on existing equipment regardless of brand.
How do you size a new boiler replacement?+
We calculate the heat loss of your home before recommending any equipment. Sizing a boiler to the square footage of the house is not accurate enough: insulation, window area, basement type, and building age all affect the right size. An oversized boiler short-cycles and causes premature wear. An undersized boiler cannot keep the home warm on the coldest Rochester days. Every replacement we do starts with a proper load calculation.
Do you install boilers in Wayne County and Ontario County?+
Yes. We install and service boilers across Monroe County (Rochester, Pittsford, Fairport, Webster, Penfield), Wayne County (Victor, Macedon, Ontario, Williamson, Marion, Palmyra), and Ontario County (Farmington, Canandaigua, Clifton Springs). Oil-fired boilers are particularly common in the Wayne County area and we are one of the few Rochester companies still actively doing oil boiler work.
Do you service and repair existing boilers?+
Yes. We service and repair gas and oil-fired boilers of all makes and models. Annual boiler cleaning and combustion testing, zone valve repair, circulator pump replacement, pressure relief valve replacement, oil pump screen cleaning, and no-heat emergency calls. If a boiler is past repair, we give you an honest assessment of that before recommending replacement.
What is a combi boiler and is it a good option for Rochester homes?+
A combi boiler handles both space heating and domestic hot water in a single unit, eliminating the need for a separate water heater. They are compact, efficient, and well-suited to Rochester homes where space is limited. We installed a Laars high-efficiency combi boiler in Victor NY that handles both heating and hot water. Free estimate to assess whether a combi makes sense for your home's hot water demand and heat load.
Is AmeriHeat owner operated?+
Yes. Justin VanCassele and Colby Baker own and run AmeriHeat. Both personally handle installs, service, and customer relationships. When you call 585 454 8422, Justin or Colby answers the phone. They are on boiler installation jobs regularly across the Rochester area.
