No heat with Morrisville temperatures dropping, water in the basement around the boiler, or a unit that keeps locking out. Call any time. The emergency telephone line is available 24/7 and true Explain urgent symptoms first — including river-low basements where water and equipment mix.

Have these answers ready — they decide the dispatch priority.
The triage call runs a fixed sequence: fuel type (gas, oil, or steam — each routes differently), what failed (heat, hot water, or both), error code if the display shows one, how fast it is getting cold inside, and your ZIP. Morrisville callers get two extra questions: whether the home was converted from oil to gas (it changes the fault assumptions), and whether the basement takes water — a boiler sitting in standing water is a different emergency than a dead burner.
Be honest about renters vs. owners too — if you rent, the property owner usually needs to authorize work, and the triage will tell you that upfront rather than after a truck rolls.

Three things that help in a Morrisville winter.
Note the details before calling: the error code on the display, whether it is heat, hot water, or both that failed, your fuel type, and whether the basement is wet. That set routes the triage instantly.
Protect the pipes: open cabinet doors under sinks on exterior walls and let taps drip slightly. Do not keep resetting a locked-out boiler, open the casing, or wade into water around electrical equipment — all make things worse.
Do this before you call — it takes five minutes.
Call with these answers — fuel type, gauge reading, error code, basement condition, indoor temperature trend — and the triage can prioritize you correctly in under a minute. If the symptom is still unclear, the Morrisville heating guide maps the local fuel mix and housing patterns.
Straight answers before you call.
True emergencies — no heat near freezing, gas odors cleared by the utility, active water damage — are triaged first, around the clock. Timing depends on demand, so the call gives you a straight answer rather than a promise. If the river is flooding basements across the borough, say so; that context changes triage.
Kill power to the boiler at the emergency switch first — a burner must not fire into water. Then close the water feed valve if you can reach it safely, and do not wade through standing water near electrical equipment. Active water around a boiler is an emergency call; in a river town, also tell triage whether it is boiler water or floodwater.
The gas company, from outside the house — a suspected leak is the utility's emergency, and the repair line cannot clear it. Once the utility clears the property, call the boiler line to inspect and restart the unit. Never reset or relight a boiler until the leak is cleared.
Call and describe the emergency — but the owner or property manager must authorize the work, so contact the landlord in parallel. In a true no-heat emergency near freezing, we can triage by phone while you get authorization. The landlord's responsibility for heating equipment does not pause for emergencies.
If it is safe — no gas odor, no active leak, no rising water, temperatures above freezing — a morning callback is often sensible, and triage will say so. Do not wait out falling temperatures, fuel smells, or water near the boiler. Describe everything when you call and let triage set the urgency.
Not necessarily ruined, but shut it down now — kill power at the emergency switch before water reaches the burner and controls, which limits the damage. Do not restart it after the water recedes until a tech has inspected it; flood-damaged controls and burners are a safety issue. Call once the water is out for a flood-damage assessment.
