Boilers and Hydronic Heat · York County
Boilers and radiators turn up most often in older houses, and York County has plenty: more than half its homes were built before 1980, and close to half in York city and Red Lion date before 1940. In Delta, where Census data shows no utility gas, a boiler usually runs on oil or propane, and Dillsburg has about a fifth of its homes on oil. Cast iron radiators often outlast the boilers that feed them.
Pennsylvania has no statewide HVAC license, so check the contractor's Attorney General registration and ask whether they pull the mechanical permit your municipality requires. Old pipe and boiler insulation can contain asbestos, so ask how it will be handled before the old unit comes out.
Old boilers here have outlasted a few owners. Before anyone sells you a new one, ask what exactly is wrong with the old one.
