Heating Installations
Boilers, furnaces, water heaters, and oil tanks. Installed by South County’s family-owned crew since 1985.
When your existing system fails or you are ready to upgrade to high-efficiency equipment, SmithCo handles the full job. We carry top-rated oil-fired equipment, do all the permitting and code work, and stand behind the installation with a Master Pipe Fitter license and four decades of South County experience. Existing customers on our heating service plans receive priority scheduling for replacement quotes.
Four core equipment categories. One crew handles all of them.
Most heating installation jobs in South County come down to one of these four categories, sometimes two or three at once during a full system replacement. We carry quality oil-fired equipment, size every system to the actual home, and handle the full installation including disposal of old equipment, code compliance, and post-install testing. Each equipment category below links to a dedicated page covering specs, sizing, brands, and warranty detail.
Oil-Fired Boiler Installation
Boilers heat water and circulate it through radiators, baseboard, or radiant floor systems. They are the workhorse of most South County homes built before 1990. Whether your existing boiler has finally given out or you are upgrading to a high-efficiency model that can shave fifteen to twenty-five percent off your annual fuel bill, we carry top-rated oil-fired units sized to your specific home. Full boiler installation coverage including sizing methodology, brand options, and warranty terms is detailed on our boiler page.
- Energy Kinetics, Buderus, and other premium oil-fired brands
- High-efficiency models with annual fuel use ratings of 87% or higher
- Full system replacement including circulators, expansion tanks, and controls
- Old boiler disposal handled by our crew
Oil Furnace Installation
Furnaces blow heated air through ductwork to vents throughout the home. Common in newer construction and homes with central air conditioning that share the duct system. When the heat exchanger cracks or efficiency drops below the point where repairs make economic sense, replacement is the right move, and a properly sized high-efficiency furnace can pay for itself in fuel savings. See full oil furnace installation options and sizing details on our dedicated furnace page.
- High-efficiency oil furnaces from major manufacturers
- Heat exchanger sizing based on actual home heat-loss calculation
- Ductwork inspection and minor repairs included where needed
- Compatible with central AC for year-round comfort systems
Water Heater Installation
Hot showers, dishwashers, laundry, hand-washing. Water heaters are the most-used piece of equipment in your home, and the first to show its age. We install oil-fired water heaters as well as indirect water heaters that run off your existing oil boiler, which is often the more efficient option for homes with hot water heating systems already in place. Compare water heater installation options including recovery rates and capacity on our water heater page.
- Oil-fired water heaters for standalone hot water systems
- Indirect water heaters that tie into existing boilers
- Standard and high-recovery models sized to household demand
- Old unit removal and proper disposal included
Oil Tank Installation & Replacement
An aging oil tank is the single biggest risk in an oil-heated home. A leak can mean a multi-thousand-dollar environmental cleanup and a homeowner’s insurance claim that may not be covered. We are certified Roth fuel oil safety storage tank installers, which means double-walled, leak-resistant tanks with a 30-year warranty against corrosion-related failures. If your tank is over 20 years old or showing rust, replacement is the responsible call. Full oil tank installation and replacement details, including Roth tank specs, are on our oil tank page.
- Certified Roth double-walled tank installation
- Indoor and outdoor tank placements
- Old tank removal and proper disposal
- All code compliance and permitting handled in-house
The only Roth-certified tank installer family in South County
Roth tanks are double-walled, leak-resistant, and backed by a 30-year warranty against corrosion-related failures. Becoming a certified installer requires manufacturer training and ongoing recertification. For South County homeowners with aging single-wall tanks in their basement, this is the standard worth asking for. SmithCo has carried the certification for years and made Roth tank replacement a core part of our installation work.
From quote to final test, here’s what happens
Site visit & quote
A real technician measures the home, inspects the existing system, and gives you a written quote, not a price from a national call center.
Equipment sizing
We size the new unit to your actual heat-loss numbers, not a thumb rule. Oversized equipment short-cycles, undersized struggles in cold snaps.
Permits & scheduling
We pull permits, schedule the install around your availability, and confirm the date in writing. Most jobs take one to two days.
Install & test
Our crew handles installation, removes old equipment, and runs efficiency tests before leaving. The system is up and stable before we drive away.
Technician came on Christmas Day in a timely manner and quickly plugged the leak in our tank. HUGE help to our family at an inconvenient time. Very professional.
