Boiler Installation for Kennebunk Homeowners

Kennebunk homeowners call Aces Highlands for boiler installation because we are close by, based at 508 Riverside St Unit 1 in Portland, and out on York County roads every day — we know this area's housing, weather and permit process cold.
Aces Highlands installs high-efficiency boiler systems designed to keep your home warm through the toughest Maine winters. Every installation is properly sized, cleanly piped, and thoroughly tested before we leave.
We install oil, propane, and natural gas boilers from trusted manufacturers including Viessmann, Buderus, and Weil-McLain. Our installations feature clean copper piping, properly insulated lines, and professional workmanship that speaks for itself.
Every boiler installation starts with a heat loss calculation to determine the right size system for your home. An oversized boiler wastes fuel and short-cycles, while an undersized system cannot keep up in cold weather. We get the sizing right. Pair your new boiler with a radiant floor heating system for the ultimate in comfort.
We handle complete system installations including boiler placement, piping, zone controls, expansion tanks, and all necessary safety devices. Our work meets or exceeds all applicable codes and manufacturer specifications. Ask about our financing plans for new boiler installations.

Kennebunk Homes and What They Need
Kennebunk has the newest median home of the five York County coastal towns Aces studied, built in 1983, with under 19 percent of units predating 1940 and about 30 percent predating 1960. That newer stock still runs plenty of aging original heating and electrical systems worth a checkup.
Heating and Cooling in Kennebunk
About 56 percent of Kennebunk households heat mainly with fuel oil, with bottled or tank propane at 18 percent and electricity at 15 percent; Unitil also supplies natural gas to parts of town. Where gas is available, a gas boiler installation is often the simplest upgrade from an old oil system.

Getting to Know Kennebunk
Kennebunk broke off from Wells and Arundel to incorporate as its own town on June 24, 1820; the name comes from an Abenaki word describing 'the long cut bank.' Its Summer Street Historic District, home to the Federal-style Wedding Cake House, was the very first historic district in Maine listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Kennebunk is also the hometown of U.S. Senator and Secretary of State Edmund Muskie and headquarters to Tom's of Maine. Since December 1893, part of town has been served by the Kennebunk Light & Power District, one of only two municipally owned Light & Power Districts left in the state.
Local & Independent — Not a Franchise
There is no franchise behind Aces Highlands — just a Portland-based crew that works Kennebunk under its own name. Technicians are not on commission, so the recommendation you get is the one your house actually needs. We do the work you called us for, do it right, and earn the next call. That is the whole business model.
How a Boiler Works
- Burner — ignites fuel to heat the exchanger
- Heat exchanger — heats the water circulating in the loop
- Circulator pump — pushes hot water through the loop
- Expansion tank — absorbs pressure as water heats and expands
- Baseboard loop — hot water out, cooler water returns

Boiler Installation: Sizing, Piping & the Details That Matter
A boiler replacement is one of the few HVAC jobs where reusing the existing piping layout without checking it can quietly undercut the new equipment's performance.

Codes & Permits for Boiler Installation in Kennebunk
In Kennebunk, plumbing permits come from the Local Plumbing Inspector at the Kennebunk Code Enforcement Office (Community Development Department) (Kennebunk Town Hall, 2nd Floor, 1 Summer Street, Kennebunk, ME 04043, (207) 985-2102 ext. 1303). With 11,820 residents, Kennebunk is required to enforce the Maine Uniform Building and Energy Code (MUBEC). Kennebunk's Summer Street Historic District was the first historic district in Maine listed on the National Register of Historic Places, which can add review requirements for exterior work in that area.
- Chimneys and vents serving fuel-fired appliances, including hydronic boilers, are governed by NFPA 211, the standard for chimneys, fireplaces, and vents. maine.gov
- State law requires a carbon monoxide detector in each area within or giving access to a bedroom wherever a fuel-burning heating appliance like a boiler serves a covered dwelling. mainelegislature.org
- Installing or servicing an oil-fired boiler in Maine requires a Maine Fuel Board Oil Burner Technician license (Apprentice, Journeyman, or Master), and apprentices must work under a licensed technician. maine.gov
How Aces Highlands Handles Boiler Installation in Kennebunk
- Unitil (Northern Utilities) has mains through parts of Kennebunk, so a gas-fired swap is on the table wherever a line already reaches the street; off that grid the choice is oil, propane or a heat pump.
- About 56% of Kennebunk homes heat with heating oil today. Oil equipment is installed to NFPA 31, gas and propane to NFPA 54/58, and every vent or chimney tie-in to NFPA 211.
- Once a boiler installation is finished, we check that carbon monoxide detectors are actually present near the bedrooms — Maine law requires them in any home heated by fuel-burning equipment.

I've had three HVAC issues over the past two years. Each time I call, Elija or the office picks up the phone, and my problem is fixed in 24 hrs. Their solutions always feel correct and honest. I cannot recommend them more.

Elijah and Highlands Heating & AC were super helpful! Boiler failed over the weekend and Elijah was very responsive and helpful, getting us up and running right away. I would recommend him at HH&AC highly!

We highly recommend Highlands Heating & AC. They are extremely responsive, knowledgeable and do great work. Our boiler stopped working and Elijah was quick to respond after hours on a Friday. He installed a new boiler and heat pump hot water heater.

He was very friendly. He gave me an honest explanation on why I shouldn't recharge my A/C unit and what he suggested made much more sense. He really took care of everything. He is very professional, always called me with updates. 5 stars is not enough — I give this company 10 stars.

I can not recommend Sam and his team enough!! In a world of slow response times and cut corners they went above and beyond in every area, installing a new electrical panel for me. Their attention to detail and love of their craft truly sets them apart from the rest!

Where to begin? These guys hooked up a sauna for me and did an amazing job, it was not a small job. Projects big or small, these guys are my go to. Responsive, reasonably priced, and professional. In a world where it is tough to get good service, I'm thrilled to have these guys in my phone.
Boiler Installation FAQs
How long does a boiler last in Maine?
A well-maintained cast-iron boiler commonly runs 20–30 years; high-efficiency condensing boilers typically last 15–20. Annual maintenance is the biggest factor — a neglected boiler gives up years early, a serviced one keeps going.
How much does boiler replacement cost?
Most full residential replacements in Southern Maine land between $7,000 and $12,000 installed, depending on fuel type, efficiency class, and the piping and venting work involved. We provide a firm written quote before any work begins, and financing is available.
How long will I be without heat during the swap?
Most replacements are completed in one to two days, and we plan the changeover so your home is without heat for the shortest window possible — usually just part of one working day.
Should I convert from oil to propane or natural gas?
It depends on fuel availability at your address, your current equipment’s age, and long-term fuel pricing. Conversions unlock quiet, compact high-efficiency boilers, but they carry added venting and fuel-line costs. We install oil, propane, and gas systems, so our recommendation is not biased toward any one answer.
What boiler brands do you install?
We install trusted manufacturers including Viessmann, Buderus, and Weil-McLain, and we match the brand and model to your system design rather than pushing a single house brand.
