Aldrich service
Service for the Aldrich boiler you already have.
Aldrich builds firetube boilers, including the Classic three-pass and AVR vertical lines. Many are sized to fit through a standard doorway, so they turn up in schools, buildings, and plants with tight boiler rooms across California.
McKenna services and repairs Aldrich boilers with its own crews. We don’t sell Aldrich equipment, so the recommendation is what the boiler needs: a repair, a retrofit, or a replacement when the numbers say so.

Why McKenna
Why plants use McKenna on their Aldrich boilers.
Independent
McKenna isn’t tied to a manufacturer’s rep agreement. We recommend what fits your plant, including keeping the boiler you have.
We build boilers
McKenna engineers and builds boilers in its own ASME code shop. That’s the same knowledge we bring to your Aldrich.
Code repairs in-house
McKenna holds the National Board R certificate, so welded tube repairs and other pressure part repairs don’t need another company.
One company for the boiler room
We service and repair other brands too. A plant with more than one brand of boiler gets one service company and one set of records.
