Frequently Asked Questions

At Commercial Heating Service, we understand that commercial and industrial property owners have many questions about their heating systems and boilers. Below, we've compiled answers to some of the most frequently asked questions to help you make informed decisions about your heating needs.

What are the signs that you need heating repair?


Several indicators suggest your commercial heating system requires professional attention. Watch for unusual noises such as banging, rattling, or squealing, which often signal mechanical issues. Uneven heating throughout your building, a sudden increase in energy costs, or frequent cycling on and off are also warning signs. If you notice any of these issues, contact Commercial Heating Service immediately to prevent more extensive damage.


Does your system need to be replaced rather than repaired?


The age and condition of your heating system are key factors in determining whether repair or replacement is the best option. Systems older than 15-20 years, those requiring frequent repairs, or units with significantly reduced efficiency are often better candidates for replacement. Our experienced technicians can assess your system and provide honest recommendations based on your specific situation and budget.


What are the benefits of a high-quality commercial heating system?


A high-quality commercial heating system provides consistent, reliable warmth throughout your facility while operating efficiently to reduce energy costs. Quality systems also require fewer repairs, have longer lifespans, and maintain better indoor air quality. Modern heating systems also offer improved temperature control and reduced environmental impact, securing comfort for your employees and customers.


What types of heating systems do you work with?


Commercial Heating Service has extensive experience with all types of commercial and industrial heating systems. We work with commercial boilers, hot water tanks, waste oil burners, furnaces, and various HVAC systems. Our licensed and certified technicians are trained to handle installation, replacement, and repair services for any heating equipment in your commercial or industrial facility.


What does your commercial boiler do?


Your commercial boiler is the heart of your building's heating system. It heats water or produces steam that is distributed throughout your facility to provide warmth. Boilers are essential for maintaining comfortable working conditions, supporting industrial processes, and ensuring proper building operations during cold weather. Regular maintenance keeps your boiler operating safely and efficiently.


What are the signs that your commercial boiler needs repair?


Common signs of boiler problems include inconsistent heating, strange noises, water leaks around the unit, or a sudden spike in energy bills. You may also notice the pilot light going out frequently, rusty water, or unusual odors. If your boiler is producing less hot water or steam than usual, it's time to call our professionals for an inspection and repair.
