As the temperatures dip and heating season approaches, it’s time to ensure your home or building is ready. In New York City, heating systems must operate reliably from October through May. At Boris Mechanical, we specialize in seasonal inspections for residential and commercial systems—and October is the perfect time to schedule yours.
Why Schedule Now?
- Avoid Emergencies: Don’t wait until the first cold snap. Identifying problems early prevents mid-winter breakdowns.
- Stay Code Compliant: NYC landlords are legally required to provide heat during the “Heat Season.” An inspection ensures your system meets all FDNY and DOB regulations.
- Improve Efficiency: A tuned heating system uses less fuel and saves money on monthly bills.
- Extend Equipment Life: Annual maintenance reduces wear and tear, helping boilers, furnaces, and pumps last longer.
What Our Inspection Covers
Boris Mechanical performs a thorough, multi-point inspection that includes:
- Checking for leaks and corrosion
- Testing pressure valves and thermostats
- Cleaning burners and filters
- Ensuring proper ventilation and exhaust
- Checking pilot lights and safety switches
For buildings with sprinkler systems or backflow prevention, we can combine inspections to minimize disruption and reduce cost.
Who Needs an Inspection?
- Homeowners: Especially if you haven’t serviced your boiler or furnace in over a year.
- Landlords & Building Managers: Avoid complaints or violations with documented service.
- Co-op/Condo Boards: Keep heating systems operating efficiently for multiple tenants.
