Heat and hot water done right — water heater installation, replacement & repair and boiler installation across Greater Boston: tankless, tank, heat-pump and indirect water heaters, plus condensing and standard boilers. Ask about Mass Save rebates.
A standard tank water heater is the lowest-cost replacement and lasts about 8–12 years; a tankless unit costs more to install but lasts 20+ years and uses less energy; a heat pump water heater is the only option Mass Save still rebates ($750). For heat, a condensing boiler reaches up to ~95% efficiency versus about 80–85% for a standard boiler, but since 2025 Mass Save no longer rebates gas or oil boilers.
| Equipment | Typical lifespan | Efficiency | Installed cost (typical, MA) | Mass Save rebate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tank water heater | 8–12 years | Standby heat loss around the clock | $1,800–$3,500 | No |
| Tankless water heater | 20+ years with annual descaling | Roughly 8–34% less water-heating energy (U.S. DOE) | $3,500–$6,500 | No (gas) |
| Heat pump water heater | About 10–15 years | 2–3× as efficient as a standard electric tank (U.S. DOE) | Quoted per home | Yes — $750 rebate + 0% HEAT Loan |
| Condensing boiler | About 15–20 years | Up to ~95% AFUE | Quoted per home | No (since 2025) |
| Standard (non-condensing) boiler | About 20–25 years | About 80–85% AFUE | Quoted per home | No |

There's no single price — the cost of water heater replacement or a new boiler depends on a handful of things, and we give you an upfront, honest quote after we see the job. The biggest factors:
It depends on the type of unit, the size your home needs, and whether venting, gas lines or fuel type have to change — plus permits and removal of the old unit. A standard tank water heater is the lowest-cost option; tankless, heat-pump and condensing boilers cost more up front but run more efficiently; heat pump water heaters also qualify for a Mass Save rebate (gas and oil boilers no longer do). We give you an upfront, honest quote after an on-site look. Call +1 (774) 486-0909.

Tankless gives endless hot water and lower bills with a higher up-front cost; a tank costs less to install. We'll size both options for your home and usage and give you an honest recommendation.
Yes, where they genuinely apply. Heat pump water heaters ($750) and air-source heat pumps still qualify for Mass Save rebates and the 0% HEAT Loan; since 2025 gas and oil boilers, even condensing models, no longer get standard rebates. We check what applies when we quote the job.
