Oil Burner Cleaning and Installation

Complete Oil Heating System Care

Oil burner cleaning removes the soot and debris that builds up over time and kills your system’s efficiency. This isn’t something you can handle yourself – it requires the right equipment and experience to do it safely and thoroughly.

Installation of new oil burners happens when your current system is beyond repair or so old that replacement makes more financial sense. We handle everything from sizing the new unit properly to connecting it safely to your existing oil supply and ductwork.

Regular maintenance keeps your oil burner running smoothly between cleanings. This includes checking all the safety controls, testing the ignition system, and making sure everything is operating within normal parameters. It’s the difference between catching problems early and dealing with emergency breakdowns.

Most oil burners need professional cleaning once a year, typically before the heating season starts in fall. If you notice your system running more frequently, higher oil bills, or soot around the unit, you might need cleaning sooner. The frequency can vary based on how much you use your heating system and the age of your equipment. Newer, well-maintained systems might go slightly longer between cleanings, while older units or those that run heavily during harsh winters may need attention more often.
Watch for unusual noises like grinding, banging, or squealing coming from your oil burner. If your home isn’t heating evenly, your system is cycling on and off frequently, or you smell oil or smoke, those are clear signs something’s wrong. Higher than normal oil consumption, yellow or orange flames instead of blue, or soot buildup around the unit all indicate problems that need professional attention. Don’t ignore these warning signs – small issues become expensive emergencies if left untreated.
Yes, our technicians work on oil burners from all major manufacturers. Whether you have a Beckett, Riello, Carlin, or any other brand, we have the experience and parts access to handle repairs and maintenance. Oil burner technology is fairly standardized, so a qualified technician can diagnose and fix problems regardless of the specific brand. We keep common parts in stock and can source specialized components when needed for older or less common models.
A straightforward oil burner replacement usually takes 4-6 hours when replacing a similar unit in the same location. If you’re upgrading to a different size or efficiency level, or if modifications to your oil supply lines or electrical connections are needed, it could take longer. The installation includes removing your old unit, installing the new burner, connecting all fuel and electrical lines, testing all safety systems, and making sure everything operates properly before we leave.
Yes, heating emergencies don’t wait for convenient times, especially during New England winters. When your oil burner fails and you’re left without heat, emergency service is available to get your system running again. Emergency calls are prioritized, particularly when outside temperatures are dangerously cold or when you have young children or elderly family members in the home. The goal is to restore your heat as quickly as possible and address any temporary solutions if parts need to be ordered.
Oil burner maintenance includes cleaning the combustion chamber, replacing the oil filter and nozzle, checking and adjusting the air-to-fuel ratio, testing all safety controls, inspecting the heat exchanger for cracks or damage, and verifying proper operation of the ignition system. We also check your oil supply lines, test the emergency shut-off switch, examine the chimney connection, and provide you with a report of the system’s condition. This comprehensive service helps prevent breakdowns and keeps your oil burner running efficiently throughout the heating season.
