Here are the Top 5 Reasons to rent a mobile boiler from Wilkinson:

5. We’ve got you covered. When it comes to mobile boiler rental, we have the largest fleet of mobile boilers in New England and we offer 24/7 emergency service.

Spring is in the air and that means it’s time to schedule an annual cleaning for your facility’s fire tube or cast iron boiler. Keeping on top of maintenance each year ensures that your boiler is running properly and safely. When your boiler is running efficiently, it also means you are saving money and have less emissions.

As an organization, it is essential to have a contingency plan. If there is ever a crisis, it’s in your best interest to develop an organized plan to keep your business operating smoothly.

With warmer weather on the way, now is the perfect time to make your plan. By the time the harsh winter rolls around again, you will be ready!

During the cold winter months, heating your facility should be one of your top priorities. Whether or not your facility experienced issues with heating in the past, it is advised for your business to expect the unexpected.

Traditional firetube, watertube or cast iron boiler systems rely on mechanical linkages to control the fuel/air ratio of the burner just like vehicle manufacturers used linkages on carburetors up until the late 1980’s.  Similar to the automotive carburetor, linkage systems on boilers are extremely outdated technology. The problem is that linkages get out of calibration, begin to slip and can only control a narrow range of functions on a boiler based on a few inputs. This is typically due to repeated operation and ever changing environmental conditions, much like we are used to in the Northeast.

In the Northeast, we have the luxury of experiencing all four seasons which of course includes our bitter winters.  During the winter, it is everyone’s nightmare to lose heat, especially if you manage or own a building.  State laws ensure that all tenant buildings are required to provide heat or a minimum temperature setting for a specified period of time during the year.  What happens if you lose heat due to a catastrophic failure of your heating system?  The best and easiest solution would be to have a mobile boiler delivered onsite to provide temporary heat and/or hot water while the issue that caused the failure is appropriately handled.

A contingency plan is a strategy devised by an individual or organization to prepare themselves or a facility for a future event that may or may not occur. The idea behind a contingency plan is to recognize the possibility of a disastrous event(s) and appropriately arrange the necessary resources needed to accommodate the facility to ensure normalcy is brought back as soon as possible.
