Help Sarah with a HVAC technician's skills: a failed boiler with no heating

A HVAC technician is needed to repair a failed boiler with no heating at the home of a family of 4.

In January an inspector told me that my home has a failed boiler with no heating. It's a safety risk for me and my three children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,100 are beyond us. I'm looking for a licensed HVAC technician who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $165. The job should take about six hours. I'll make sure someone is home and will provide refreshments. I can share the inspector's written report on request. If you're a HVAC technician and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you for reading my story.

    Thinking of you, Sarah. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
