Katonah is unusual even for Westchester. Much of the village was carefully relocated in the 1890s when the Croton Reservoir expanded, leaving a hamlet full of well-loved historic homes. Many still run boilers that have heated them for generations of cold Bedford winters.
Wesco 53 has served Katonah and the surrounding county since 1953. We understand these older systems, repair them with care, and explain every finding in plain terms.
In Katonah’s historic homes, an aging boiler tends to show its wear before it fails completely:
Catching these early lets us make a repair before the system quits on a deep-winter night.
Many Katonah homes still rely on older steam and hot-water boilers, and those long-serving systems bring familiar issues. Low water cutoffs that stick, clogged or corroded valves, and mineral buildup that causes gurgling and banging are all frequent repairs.
We also address leaks from aged fittings, worn circulator pumps, and ignition faults on gas and oil burners. Rather than rushing to replace a sound old boiler, we repair what is failing and keep the system running reliably.
Repairing a decades-old boiler takes a different touch than swapping parts on a new one, and our technicians bring that experience to Katonah homes. We service gas, oil, steam, and hot-water boilers of every major brand.
Our repairs cover leaks, pressure and water-level faults, pump and valve replacement, and burner service, always with care for an older home. With 24/7 emergency coverage, a heating failure on a freezing night never leaves your family waiting long.
Richard owns a historic home off Katonah Avenue where the old steam boiler had started gurgling loudly and shutting itself off. Our technician found a low water cutoff clogged with sediment, which was tripping the safety and starving the boiler of water. We cleaned and replaced the cutoff, flushed the sediment, and the steam system ran quietly and steadily once more.
