We’ve had Silco work on our HVAC three or four times since moving to the area in 2022 and every time, including Connor replacing a capacitor in an AC unit today in the middle of a heat wave, the service has been outstanding. Extremely quick response time, quick but careful diagnostics, and great explanations of repair/replace options. The guys are friendly, professional, and efficient - highly recommend.

Connor from Silco was great. He is very knowledgeable, thorough, polite and pleasant. Connor answered all questions and explained everything he had to do. He went over & above with all he did. Silco is lucky to have him. If/when I need them again, will ask to have Connor do the work.

Very good experience with Silco. Nico D.arrived right in time and got right to work. Pleasantly we need no other repairs or replacement. I called Silco following a "you gotta replace the furnace"" bad call by a National firm. That firm never followed up on the replacement call,made me suspicious. Thanks Silco and Nico Ducette.

Silco Plumbing was a huge help and thoroughly professional when my toilet tank leaked from the second floor through the kitchen ceiling. Silco Plumbing sent someone that day and he tackled all the issues he found with the toilet. I feel lucky to have Silco Plumbing in my contacts. Ben was excellent to work with.

When Your Furnace Starts to Fail, Here’s What We Look For

Your system often gives early hints before it stops working altogether. Our team knows how to identify these warning signs and address them before they turn into bigger problems.

We check for:

  • Cold or weak airflow when the system should be heating normally.
  • New noises or unusual smells that point to worn, loose, or overheating parts.
  • Rising energy bills despite the same usage, often a sign of an inefficient or struggling furnace.

You’ll always receive honest guidance. We don’t push replacements when a repair will get your Reading home warm again.

Real Customer Stories from Reading, MA

When Your Heat Suddenly Stops and You Need Answers Fast
Ever wake up to a cold house and think, “Great… what broke now?” That was Nicole in Reading. Her gas forced hot air system stopped heating altogether, and she needed a real fix, not guesswork. So we got right to it.

After a quick diagnostic, the issue became clear: a failing gas valve. Once we replaced it and tested the system, the heat came right back the way it should. Now Nicole’s home warms up quickly, stays comfortable, and her furnace is running exactly how it’s meant to.


When Your Furnace Has More Than One Issue Hiding Under the Hood
Ever have your heating system start acting strangely and you’re not sure why? That was Murphy in Reading. The heat wasn’t reliable, and something was clearly off. So we took action. We went through the entire unit carefully and found the real story: several worn-out parts all failing at once. The induction motor, pressure switch, roll-out switch, and ignitor had all reached the end of their life.

We replaced each component, checked every connection, and made sure the system was running safely. Once everything was installed and tuned, the furnace settled into smooth, steady operation. Murphy’s home warmed up the way it should, and the system was back to being fully dependable.


When Your Old Furnace Finally Tells You It’s Time
Ever feel like your heating system is just hanging on? That was Edward in Reading. His old furnace wasn’t keeping up, and it was clear something needed to be done. So we stepped in. We inspected the system, confirmed it had reached the end of its life, and recommended a proper replacement.

Then we removed the old unit and installed a new Trane horizontal gas forced hot air furnace to bring everything up to standard. Once the new system was running, the heat came back strong and steady. Edward’s home warmed up quickly, and his heating is now reliable for the long run.
