Boiler Installation for Kennebunkport Homeowners

Need boiler installation in Kennebunkport? Aces Highlands runs out of 508 Riverside St Unit 1 in Portland and covers York County routinely, which means a technician who already understands the area's homes and permit process shows up, not a stranger learning it on the job.
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.

Kennebunkport Homes and What They Need
Kennebunkport's median home was built in 1982, with about 13 percent of units predating 1940 and 29 percent predating 1960 -- a mix of early-1900s shingle-style cottages in the Cape Arundel Summer Colony Historic District alongside newer coastal construction. Those older cottages are prime candidates for a heat pump retrofit that extends comfortable use into the shoulder seasons.
Heating and Cooling in Kennebunkport
About half of Kennebunkport households heat mainly with fuel oil, with bottled or tank propane at 27 percent and electricity at 20 percent; there is no piped natural gas in town. With propane this common, a tankless water heater on propane is a popular upgrade for a seasonal cottage being used more of the year.

Getting to Know Kennebunkport
Kennebunkport was first incorporated in 1653 as Cape Porpus, renamed Arundel in 1701, and finally took its current name in 1821 to reflect a growing shipbuilding and trading economy. Walker's Point, the Bush family's summer estate here, has hosted world leaders including Margaret Thatcher and Mikhail Gorbachev.
Cape Porpoise remains a working fishing harbor village within the town, keeping its own restaurants, church, library and commercial fleet. The Cape Arundel Summer Colony Historic District, running from Chick's Creek to Walker's Point, is full of early-1900s shingle-style summer cottages that still define much of the town's coastline.
Local & Independent — Not a Franchise
There is no franchise behind Aces Highlands — just a Portland-based crew that works Kennebunkport under its own name. Our techs are paid to do the job right, not to upsell — no commission structure pushes them toward extra work. Earning the next call, not hitting a sales target, is the entire business plan.
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.

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'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.

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.
