Straightforward Service, No Surprises

When you call for oil burner service, we start by understanding what’s happening with your system. Is it not heating properly? Making strange noises? Not firing up at all? We ask the right questions so we know what to expect when we arrive.

Our technician shows up with the tools and parts needed for most common oil burner issues. We’ll diagnose the problem, explain what we found in plain language, and give you a clear picture of what it’ll take to fix it. No technical jargon, no pressure tactics.

For routine maintenance, we clean your burner thoroughly, check all the components, test the system’s efficiency, and make sure everything is running safely.

Everything Your Oil Burner Needs

Oil burner service covers everything from emergency repairs when your heat goes out to the regular maintenance that prevents those emergencies in the first place. This includes thorough cleaning of the combustion chamber, burner components, and heat exchanger. It means checking and adjusting the fuel-to-air mixture for efficient burning and testing safety controls to make sure everything shuts down properly if something goes wrong.

For Rehoboth homeowners, this also means understanding how local conditions affect your system. The humidity, the temperature swings, even the quality of fuel oil in the area all impact how your burner performs. Our technicians factor in these local considerations when we service your system.

Our Dempsey Comfort Club membership gives you priority scheduling and ongoing maintenance that keeps your oil burner running efficiently year after year. It’s the kind of proactive approach that saves money and prevents the middle-of-the-night emergency calls that nobody wants to make.

Most oil burners should be cleaned and serviced annually, ideally before the heating season starts in early fall. If you use your system heavily or have an older burner, you might benefit from service twice a year. Regular service prevents soot buildup that reduces efficiency and can cause breakdowns. It also catches small problems before they become expensive repairs. Annual service typically includes cleaning the combustion chamber, checking the fuel pump, testing safety controls, and adjusting the system for optimal performance.
Watch for several warning signs that indicate your oil burner needs attention. Strange noises like banging, whistling, or grinding usually mean mechanical problems. If your burner keeps shutting off and needs to be reset frequently, there’s likely an issue with fuel delivery or safety controls. Soot around the unit, yellow flames instead of blue, or strong fuel odors all signal combustion problems that need immediate attention. Higher than normal fuel bills often indicate your burner is working inefficiently and needs service.
Most oil burners can be thoroughly cleaned and restored to efficient operation, even if they haven’t been serviced in years. Professional cleaning removes soot and carbon buildup from the combustion chamber, heat exchanger, and burner components. However, if the heat exchanger is cracked, the burner motor has failed, or the unit is extremely old with multiple failing components, replacement might be more cost-effective. A good technician will assess your specific situation and recommend cleaning when it makes sense, replacement when it doesn’t.
Routine oil burner cleaning and maintenance typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on the condition of your system and how long it’s been since the last service. If your burner hasn’t been cleaned in several years, it might take longer to remove all the buildup and properly tune the system. Emergency repairs can vary widely – simple issues like a clogged filter might be fixed in 30 minutes, while more complex problems could take several hours. Most service calls are completed the same day.
Yes, we work on all major oil burner brands including Beckett, Riello, Carlin, and Wayne. We also service the various boiler and furnace brands that these burners are installed in. Oil burner technology is fairly standardized, so our qualified technicians can diagnose and repair most systems regardless of brand. We carry common parts for the most popular units and can source specialized components when needed. The key is finding technicians who understand oil heating systems, not just specific brands.
Complete oil burner cleaning includes removing and cleaning the burner assembly, cleaning the combustion chamber and heat exchanger surfaces, replacing the fuel filter and nozzle, checking and adjusting the fuel pump pressure, testing all safety controls, and tuning the air-to-fuel mixture for clean, efficient combustion. We also inspect the chimney connection, test for proper draft, check electrical connections, and run the system through several cycles to ensure everything operates correctly. You’ll also get a clear explanation of what was found and any recommendations for future maintenance.
