Boiler Maintenance in Greater Boston & the South Shore


A yearly boiler tune-up keeps your home warm, helps prevent breakdowns in the middle of winter and helps your boiler last. Trust 1 Heating, Cooling & Plumbing maintains gas steam and hot water boilers for homes across Greater Boston and the South Shore.

We recommend scheduling boiler maintenance once a year, ideally before the heating season starts.

Why Boiler Maintenance Matters

Many boiler repairs can be avoided with regular maintenance. A yearly visit catches worn parts, pressure problems and leaks before they turn into a no-heat call on the coldest night of the year, and a clean, well-tuned boiler runs more efficiently.

Our Boiler Tune-Up Checklist

Every Trust 1 boiler maintenance visit includes:

  • Check all burners for proper operation
  • Check the thermocouple and pilot assembly (if applicable)
  • Check the heat exchanger surface
  • Check the flue pipe
  • Lubricate pumps, bearings and fans (if applicable)
  • Check the inducer motor (if applicable)
  • Check and tighten all electrical connections
  • Check the safety switches and controls
  • Check the gas valve
  • Check temperatures and pressures
  • Check the thermostat for proper operation
  • Check drain lines and traps
  • Test and label emergency shutoffs
  • Check zone valves
  • Check the expansion tank
  • Check the aquastat, relay and water regulator
  • Start and test the system through a full cycle
