Heating and Cooling in Brockton, MA

Brockton is the largest city in Plymouth County and the housing in it reflects that: single-family homes on small lots, two-families, and a great many three-deckers, in neighborhoods from Campello and Montello to the Highlands. If you need home heating and cooling in Brockton, MA, you are most likely dealing with a boiler, a building with more than one household, or both.

We are a family owned company based in Norwell, about nine miles away. We have an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau and 50 years in business, and we are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at (781) 353-8852.

Three-deckers, two-families, and shared systems

Multi-family buildings are the signature of Brockton's housing. They bring heating questions that single-family homes do not. Is there one boiler for the whole building, or one for each unit? Who controls the thermostat? What happens when the tenant on the third floor is cold and the one on the first floor is warm?

  • One boiler, whole building: Common in older three-deckers. Balancing, zone valves, and pipe insulation make a big difference to how evenly the building heats.
  • Separate systems per unit: Easier to control, but multiplies the service points. We keep records for each.
  • Mixed fuel and age: Buildings with a new boiler in the basement and old radiators upstairs are common. We make the pieces work together.
  • Owner-occupants with rentals: A small supplemental system can fix one stubborn apartment without redoing the building.

For landlords and property owners

A heating failure in a rental in January is an urgent problem for your tenants and a liability for you. Preventive maintenance reduces the odds, and a fast, reliable response reduces the damage when something does fail. We offer annual tune-ups for boilers and furnaces, and we answer the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

A fall checklist for rental properties

  • Have each boiler or furnace serviced and combustion tested
  • Test carbon monoxide alarms in every unit
  • Bleed radiators and check zone valves
  • Confirm tenants know who to call for no-heat emergencies
  • Check fuel supply and tank condition where applicable

Our emergency service is open at all hours.

Single-family homes across the city

Brockton also has plenty of single-family houses, from older capes and colonials to ranches built in the postwar years. Many run on gas or oil with hot water baseboard, radiators, or forced air. As elsewhere, the questions are usually about reliability and efficiency: whether to repair or replace an aging system, and how to add cooling to a house that has never had it.

A ductless mini-split often solves cooling in a house with no ducts. A furnace replacement is a chance to add central air if the ducts allow. See furnace installation and heat pumps and mini-splits.

How can a landlord reduce the risk of a no-heat emergency?

Annual boiler or furnace service, working carbon monoxide alarms, and a plan for who tenants should call. We help with all three.
