Local heating, done right

Heating built for Troy homes

Troy has one of the oldest housing stocks in the Capital Region — the median home here was built in 1938, and more than half of the city (about 55%) went up before 1940. From the brownstones and rowhouses around the Central Troy Historic District to the frame homes of Lansingburgh and the working-class blocks of South Troy, most of these houses were built around boilers and cast-iron radiators, not modern forced-air systems.

That means a heating call in Troy is rarely a simple swap. We replace failing steam and hot-water boilers, upgrade aging gas furnaces, and re-zone heat in century-old homes where one thermostat is trying to cover three drafty floors. About 72% of Troy households heat with natural gas on National Grid’s lines, so high-efficiency gas furnace and boiler replacement is the bread and butter of what we do here.

For the smaller share of Troy homes still on oil or propane — roughly 3% of the city, more common toward the edges and out in Sycaway and Frear Park pockets — we offer two honest paths: an oil-to-gas conversion where a National Grid gas main already runs down the street, or a high-efficiency oil or propane furnace or boiler where no gas main is available to convert to.

Boiler and furnace heating work by Empire State Plumbing
Troy

Replaced a failing oversized atmospheric gas boiler in a Central Troy rowhouse with a high-efficiency Navien condensing boiler, added zoning so the top floor finally heats, and relined the chimney venting for the new sealed-combustion unit.

Converted a 1930s Lansingburgh home off an aging oil furnace to high-efficiency gas after confirming a National Grid main on the street — pulled the City of Troy permit, ran the new gas line, and set a Bryant high-efficiency furnace.

No-heat emergency in South Troy during a January cold snap: an end-of-life propane boiler had cracked, so we replaced it with a high-efficiency propane boiler sized to the home's old cast-iron radiators and had heat back the same day.

Troy

In a Sycaway single-family running old one-pipe steam heat, the radiators hammered all night and the rooms farthest from the boiler never warmed up. We traced it to a waterlogged boiler and a failing low-water cutoff that kept over-feeding it, so we replaced the cutoff and auto-feeder, skimmed the oil film off the boiler water, and re-pitched a sagging radiator back toward the supply. The banging stopped and the whole floor heats evenly again.

FAQs about heating in Troy

Yes — boiler-and-radiator homes are most of what we see in Troy. We replace steam and hot-water boilers with properly sized high-efficiency units, add zoning where one thermostat is covering too much house, and handle the chimney relining or venting changes a new sealed-combustion boiler needs in an older masonry home.

Often, yes. About 72% of Troy already runs on natural gas, and where a National Grid main is on your street we can convert you from oil to a high-efficiency gas furnace or boiler, pull the City of Troy permit, and run the new gas line. Where there’s no main to convert to, we install high-efficiency oil or propane equipment instead. We focus on high-efficiency gas, oil, and propane equipment, not electric conversions.

Yes — we run same-day service Monday through Friday, 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM, and prioritize no-heat calls during Troy’s December–March cold season. We’ve been licensed and working in the area since 2006, and financing through Acorn Finance is available when a repair turns into a full replacement.

Yes. Older Troy homes on boilers or radiators often have no ducts, and a ductless mini-split (cold-climate heat pump) is usually the cleanest fit. These units heat well down into the single digits and mount without tearing the house apart, and we can leave your existing boiler or furnace in place as backup for the coldest stretches. We’ll look at your layout and tell you honestly whether one head or a few zones makes sense.

Once a year, ideally before the first real cold in the fall. On a gas or oil furnace we clean the burners, check the heat exchanger for cracks that can leak carbon monoxide, and test the safeties; on a boiler we check the controls, low-water cutoff, and venting. Annual service catches the small stuff before it turns into a no-heat call in January, and it keeps the system running at the efficiency you’re paying for.
