"Just had my water heater fixed. They were quick, didn't cut corners and very polite. I would recommend them to anyone needing repairs or replacements."
Fuel or power source will be the main consideration for homeowners considering boilers in Hudson. Electric boiler systems are an option and are highly efficient.
That said, the price of electricity in your region can make them expensive long term. You’ll want to discuss the long-term costs and benefits of an electric boiler versus a heat pump with your technician.
Most boilers in Hudson are either gas or oil fired. Gas is generally preferable, but your home must have access to a natural gas line. A gas boiler will cost more initially than an electric boiler but will be cheaper to run over its life.
With an oil-fired boiler, you’ll need to have a storage tank on your property. Your provider will come out to your home as needed to refill it with the fuel oil your system burns.
If choosing oil- or gas-fired, you also have the choice of noncondensing versus condensing. Noncondensing is the traditional setup and provides a mid-80% efficiency. Condensing is a newer configuration that provides a mid-90% efficiency. Whether it’s worth it depends on if the incentives and long-term savings more than cover the added initial investment.
Another choice to consider is hot water versus steam radiators. Hot water radiators are more prevalent in modern homes. If you have an older home that already has steam radiators, that may make more sense. You also have the option of radiant floor heating. It can be a standalone solution, or you can mix and match it.
Consider the many benefits of a modern hydronic heating system:

We install a wide range of top-rated, high-efficiency boiler systems, including many Energy Star-certified models. Depending on your home’s infrastructure and heating needs, you can choose from electric, natural gas, or oil-fired boilers. We can also help you choose between modern condensing models (which offer mid-90% efficiency) and traditional non-condensing setups, as well as whether hot water radiators, steam radiators, or radiant floor heating is the best fit for your home.
The best choice depends on your home’s setup and long-term goals. While electric boilers are highly efficient, the cost of electricity in your area could make them more expensive to run over time. Natural gas boilers typically cost more to install initially but are generally cheaper to operate over their lifespan, though your home must have access to a natural gas line. Our technicians can help you weigh the upfront costs against the long-term benefits to find the right system for you.
Modern boiler systems offer several significant advantages over older heating setups. Benefits include lower month-to-month heating costs, better indoor air quality, a longer equipment lifespan, a reduced carbon footprint, and fewer maintenance requirements overall. Furthermore, upgrading to an Energy Star-certified system may qualify you for incentives that can help offset the initial cost of installation.
