Call (888) 766-1474The coastal installation question.
On the Connecticut coast, where the boiler sits is a design decision. Low-lying streets near the Sound and the rivers flood in nor'easters, and a basement installation that was fine for decades can become a repeat flood victim as storm patterns intensify.
When replacement time comes, the options are elevation above the known waterline, relocation within the basement, or — in the worst spots — rethinking the installation location entirely.
This is a conversation to have before the emergency, not during it: a pro who knows the local flood history can advise whether your current placement is a risk and what a resilient installation looks like.
If your basement has taken water before, mention it on any service call — flood history changes both the diagnosis and the long-term plan.

Yes — it changes the entire triage. Oil faults center on the burner (nozzle, electrodes, fuel supply) and, on the coast, the tank's exterior condition; gas faults center on ignition, flame sensing, and condensate. Tell us the fuel type on the call.
First check whether it is the outage or the boiler: boilers need electricity, so a dead boiler during a power outage is often just waiting on power. If power is on and the boiler is dead — or the basement took water — call the emergency line any time. Do not refire a boiler that has been submerged.
On the coast, exterior corrosion is progressive — weeping seams, thinning legs, and flaking scale mean the tank is a replacement question, not a patch question. Photograph it and describe it on the call so the right assessment happens.
A burner or controls that have been submerged need professional evaluation before refiring — water and gas/oil controls do not mix. Mention the flooding history on the call; it is a safety question first and a repair question second.
