Important Service Tips

What do I do if I smell propane?

  1. No flames or sparks - immediately put out all smoking materials and other open flames.
  2. Leave the area immediately - Get everyone out of the building or area where you suspect gas is leaking.
  3. Shut off the gas - If possible, shut off the main gas supply valve on your propane tank. To close the valve, turn it to the right (clockwise).
  4. Report the Leak - Call us at 225-3000 right away. Make sure you are out of the house.
  5. Do not return to the house or area until we determine that it is safe to go back in.
  6. Get your system checked - Before your system is put back into service, we will need to do a system check (leak test) to ensure that your system is in safe working order.

What do I do if I do not have any heat or hot water?

Your oil burner should give you a minimum amount of trouble, but in the case it does, you should follow the steps below prior to calling us:

  1. Be certain that you have oil in your tank.
  2. Is your emergency switch “ON”? Usually this is the switch with a RED plate cover.
  3. Your thermostat must be set higher than the room temperature; otherwise your oil burner will run for domestic hot water only.
  4. Press your “RESET” button (only once) on the front of your boiler and release.
  5. Check your breaker panel.
  6. Call us at 225-3000
