Oil Burner Installation Plymouth

Complete Oil Burner Service Coverage

Whether you need emergency repair, routine maintenance, or complete oil burner installation, we handle it all. Our service includes thorough cleaning of burner components, replacement of worn parts, safety system testing, and efficiency optimization.

Annual service is essential for oil burners, ideally before the heating season starts in late fall. Oil systems accumulate soot and debris that reduces efficiency and can cause breakdowns. During service, our technicians clean the burner assembly, replace the oil filter, check the chimney draft, and test all safety controls. Homes that use their oil heat heavily or have older systems may benefit from twice-yearly service. Regular maintenance typically prevents 80% of emergency breakdowns and keeps your system running at peak efficiency, which saves money on heating oil throughout the winter.
Watch for these warning signs: unusual noises like rumbling, banging, or squealing; yellow or smoky flames instead of blue; soot around the unit or on nearby walls; frequent cycling on and off; higher than normal oil consumption; or strange odors when the system runs. If your home isn’t heating evenly or the burner won’t start reliably, that’s also a clear sign of trouble. Don’t ignore these symptoms – oil burner problems typically get worse quickly and can become safety hazards. Early intervention usually means simpler, less expensive repairs compared to waiting until complete system failure.
Yes, we service all major oil burner brands and models, including older systems that many companies won’t touch. This includes conventional oil burners, flame retention head burners, and combination units. We stock parts for common Plymouth County systems and can source components for less common models. Our technicians are trained on both residential and commercial oil heating equipment. Whether you have a basic oil burner from the 1980s or a newer high-efficiency model, we have the experience and parts inventory to keep it running properly throughout the heating season.
Emergency response times depend on weather conditions and current service volume, but we prioritize heating emergencies, especially during cold weather. We understand that a broken oil burner in January isn’t something you can wait days to fix. Our local Plymouth County presence means shorter travel times compared to companies based farther away. For Dempsey Comfort Club members, emergency service gets priority scheduling. We also provide guidance over the phone for simple issues that homeowners might be able to address temporarily while waiting for service, like checking circuit breakers or resetting the system.
This depends on the age, condition, and repair history of your current system. Oil burners typically last 15-20 years with proper maintenance. If your unit is over 15 years old and needs expensive repairs, replacement often makes more sense financially. Newer oil burners are significantly more efficient, which reduces heating costs. However, if your system is well-maintained and the repair is minor, fixing it may be the better choice. Our technicians will give you honest guidance based on your specific situation, including repair costs versus replacement benefits, so you can make an informed decision that fits your budget and long-term needs.
Yes, the Dempsey Comfort Club provides scheduled maintenance and priority service for oil heating systems. Members get annual tune-ups, priority emergency service, and discounts on repairs. The program is designed to catch problems early and keep your oil burner running efficiently all season long. Regular maintenance through the program typically pays for itself through improved efficiency and fewer emergency repairs. Members also get reminders when service is due, so you don’t have to remember to schedule maintenance yourself. It’s particularly valuable for homeowners who want professional oversight of their heating system without the hassle of managing service schedules.
