Poor customer service. Boo

Alright, lemme be straight with ya. I've had a Central Boiler for years, and when it's workin', it's a beast! Keeps my place warm, saves me money on heat... can't complain about the product itself. It's built tough and does what it's supposed to do.
BUT... and this is a BIG but... if you ever need c...

25 years ago we moved to the country and decided to buy a wood boiler, we shopped around knowing it was going to be a big investment. We looked at several stoves, Central Boiler was the most expensive but looked like it was better quality for sure. We bought it, installed it ourselves, laid the unde...

Great furnace for the first 12 years until the door cracked. Still under warranty so I got a new door for "free". Shipping was $150 and the door was a new "improved" design. After the first 3 solenoids in the first month, I called the dealer and he said they recommend the spring connector and 1 am...

Serial #GS-710234, nothing but problems from the very beginning. Wrote a letter to the CEO (who does this anymore?) who ignored me multiple times until my dealer finally made them call me back. Then they told me I don't know how to operate my stove.

Can not talk to anyone at this company. Their phone system is a endless loop of transferring, and no one answers, ever. I have a question about my boiler and can't get it answered. My advice, if your looking for a boiler buy one from a company that actually has a technical service assistance departm...

Upgraded to a Classic Edge 550. Burns only about a third of the wood my Ridgewood did! Was a little apprehensive about buying a new stove since we just paid the old one off, but so far it s worth it. My Dad (who swore he d never go to an OWB from his indoor stove) was so impressed with the efficienc...

I have been using Central Boiler products for about 6 years. I upgraded to a 550HD this year. Man I am glad I did. The 550 HD is well worth the investment. I'm spending a lot less time on maintenance and enjoying the wireless monitoring of the unit from the matter where I'm at.

I've my 6048 for 14 year's.
I did have an issue with my door, and Central Boiler stood behind it, giving me a brand new door, No Charge.
I have changed a couple circulators, understandably.
I wished I had bought one sooner, hopefully it will last another 14 year's.
By then, I'll be too old to cu...

Happy owner of a 2010 E-Classic 2400. Keeps my house warm and domestic water hot even at -40 below temperatures. I've had no problems with this furnace and it's still running strong. As a former Classic owner prior to my E-Classic upgrade, I highly recommend Central Boiler products as they are both ...

Only had ours in use from March until May. In August had a pin hole leak in the heat exchanger coil. They say not warrantied because our water was bad or not properly set up. Hmm. Dealer installed and set up and no build up in coil. Still won't warranty this part. They apparently know they have a pr...

I have the Firestar XP module on it too, and it is addicting, always looking at it to see the water temp and reac...

This is my second central boiler purchase. I loved the financial savings using wood provided. My local dealer has been awesome but after years of use, the door developed a major crack. The local dealer stated that the doors have life-time guarantees but upon requesting a new door, was informed th...

We moved to New Hampshire in 2000 and the wife said no wood stove in the new house. So I went in search of the best outdoor wood boiler. After much research I settled on the Central Boiler model 5036. Purchased in the fall of 2006 and it has been going strong ever since. I have had a few issue m...

I ve had a Classic for 11 years now. I love it 100%. I work in a steel framed warehouse which is brutal in winter, as cold as -30* cold. I come home, crank the thermostat and it s just plain paradise. With out my Outdoor Furnace I couldn t afford sufficient heat, besides I have my own wood. People s...
