Many plumbers and heating companies try to convince customers to replace a steam heating system with hot water baseboard or warm air in a residential or commercial building. Why? Because they don't really know how to figure out how to repair the existing malfunctioning steam heat system. Some people say that steam heating systems are obsolete. Not us. We say that steam heat is a lost art which when installed properly offers the most luxurious and efficient heating you could ever imagine.
At Veterans Steam Heat of RI, we don't try to convince customers to replace their steam heating systems. Instead, customers trust us to keep their systems balanced, efficient and in top operating condition.

Most of the people who installed and maintained these systems during their heyday are gone from the scene. Moreover, very few steam heating systems are being installed today, making it difficult to gain the needed experience and knowledge need to keep the systems working properly. Today, only someone dedicated to and focused on steam heat has the necessary knowledge to keep these systems in good operating condition.
Steam heating systems were very popular in Rhode Island and New England before 1900 and continued to be installed up to World War II. Many of them are still working, which shows the strength and effectiveness of this approach to heating residential and commercial structures. In most cases, there is no reason why these systems can't keep on working. It just requires someone who knows how to maintain and repair the systems to keep them operating properly.
