Most oil burners need professional service once a year, ideally before the heating season starts in late fall. Somerset’s cold winters put extra demand on heating systems, so annual maintenance is essential for reliable operation. If your burner is older or you notice issues like higher fuel consumption, unusual noises, or inconsistent heating, you might benefit from more frequent service. Regular maintenance prevents most emergency breakdowns and keeps your system running efficiently all winter long.
Watch for several warning signs that indicate your oil burner needs attention. Strange noises like banging, whistling, or grinding sounds usually mean mechanical problems. If you smell oil, see soot around the unit, or notice your home isn’t heating evenly, call for service immediately. Higher than normal fuel consumption, frequent cycling on and off, or yellow flames instead of blue flames also signal problems. Don’t ignore these signs – addressing issues early prevents more expensive repairs and keeps your family safe and warm.
Yes, we handle complete oil burner installation throughout Somerset and Bristol County. We assess your home’s heating needs, recommend the right equipment size and efficiency level, and handle all installation work including permits and inspections. The process typically takes a full day, depending on your system’s complexity. We work with quality manufacturers and ensure all installations meet local codes and safety standards. If your current oil burner is more than 15-20 years old, a new installation often pays for itself through improved efficiency and reliability.
Emergency oil burner repairs are available when your heating system fails during cold weather. Somerset winters don’t wait for convenient timing, and neither do heating emergencies. While emergency service costs more than scheduled maintenance, getting your heat restored quickly is worth it when temperatures drop. Common emergency issues include ignition failures, pump problems, and safety control malfunctions. The best way to avoid emergencies is through regular annual maintenance, but when problems do arise, professional repair service can usually restore heat the same day.
Complete oil burner maintenance includes thorough cleaning of the combustion chamber, heat exchanger, and flue passages to remove soot buildup that reduces efficiency. The service includes replacing the oil filter, cleaning or replacing the burner nozzle, checking and adjusting combustion settings, and testing all safety controls. Our technicians also inspect the chimney, check for oil leaks, test the thermostat operation, and verify proper ventilation. This comprehensive service typically takes 1-2 hours and significantly improves your system’s efficiency, reliability, and safety throughout the heating season.
Oil burner service costs vary based on what your system needs, but routine annual maintenance is much less expensive than emergency repairs or premature replacement. Basic cleaning and tune-up service typically costs less than what you’d spend on extra fuel from running an inefficient burner for just a few months. Repair costs depend on which components need attention – simple fixes like replacing filters or nozzles cost less than major component replacement. We provide upfront estimates so you know what to expect before any work begins.
