Boiler repair by Local Energy, LLC

Call Us Right Away For

  • A complete loss of heat during freezing weather
  • A major water leak from your boiler or water heater
  • A gas smell. Leave the house first, then call your gas utility or 911 from outside before calling us.

Call Maine at (207) 613-6886 or New Hampshire at (603) 662-2809.

While You Wait

  • Don’t heat with your oven or stovetop, and never run a generator indoors or in a garage.
  • Don’t keep relighting a pilot that won’t stay lit. A safety control may have shut the system down on purpose.
  • Close doors to unused rooms and let faucets drip on the coldest nights to help prevent frozen pipes.
