Annual Boiler Maintenance

  • A well-maintained gas or electric heater can warm your home more effectively, require less energy overall, and be more reliable. For all of your heater maintenance requirements, you can trust our neighborhood company. For optimal performance that provides year-round hot water and winter heating to your house, it is imperative that you schedule routine checkups with highly skilled plumbers, which include things like inspecting water lines and gas lines and making sure there are no plumbing issues that could lead to extreme plumbing emergencies. Frequent maintenance might help you avoid expensive future issues, and having plumbing services perform such work if it involves something like a gas line is important for safety reasons.
  • A boiler is made up of several external parts. Among them are automatic fill valves, backflow preventers, zone valves, circulating pumps, air eliminators, expansion tanks, temperature pressure gauges, and switching relays. We get to experience each of these elements on our yearly vacation. Often, peripheral components require replacement before the boiler. These parts must be inspected and repaired right away to prevent a major heating issue.

Do I Need a New Boiler Installation/ Boiler Replacement?

Despite their amazing lifespan and frequent use, every boiler will eventually need to be replaced, just like any other home item. For optimal performance, our trained technicians at John Owens match each new heating/plumbing system we install to the exact application it will be used in. Additionally, our business guarantees that every new installation upholds the highest standards of craftsmanship.
You might need to replace your unit if any of the following are true:

  • Your unit is more than 20 years old.
  • Your device repeatedly shuts off on you.
  • When your device is operating, it produces odd sounds or odors.
  • There’s a big issue with the stability of your temperature.
  • Either warm water or no hot water at all is produced by your gadget.
  • Your electricity bills are really expensive.

Due to the complexity of these devices, even a small issue could have a significant effect. A major problem, such as a complete shutdown, can persuade you that it needs to be replaced with a new installation when, in reality, a minor change will be sufficient to keep it running consistently. When something goes wrong with your system and you think you need repair, John Owens is a plumber and heating/air conditioning contractor who can provide you with an honest evaluation of your boiler system so you can decide if a new unit is necessary.

Air to Water Heat Pumps – the way of the future

  • In California and around the US, there is a shift away from using fossil fuels to heat our homes. Gas boilers are replaced by high-efficiency heating and cooling systems called air-to-water heat pumps. Heat pumps have an efficiency of 400%. In summary, this means that the appliance may produce up to 4 kW at its highest output, out of a total of 1 kW. After 2027, it will be illegal to buy new gas boilers in California. All throughout the nation, gas boilers will be phased out by 2030.
  • You may now store heated or cooled water for your home’s heating and cooling requirements during off-peak electrical times with Air-to-Water Heat Pumps. In Marin County, a kilowatt typically costs 46 cents. During peak hours (4 to 9 p.m.), a kilowatt costs 60 cents, while during off-peak hours it costs 30 cents. In the future, working during off-peak hours and saving energy for use during peak hours would be referred to as “load shifting.” It would be wonderful to be able to heat or cool a house for 33% less than the national average.




Boiler and Hydronic Repairs

The hydronic heating boilers will all eventually require maintenance. Because most boiler firms are based on the East Coast, it can take some time to identify and acquire the essential parts. Since our vans are intended to service hydronic boilers, they are furnished with the most frequently needed replacement and maintenance parts. We can expedite repairs since we have a substantial stock of boiler parts from specialized manufacturers in our warehouse. Our parts department can find boiler repair components with the fastest turnaround times even if they are not in stock. As far as we can tell, there is nothing more inconvenient than having a less qualified boiler technician visit your home or place of business to identify the issue. They make several visits to your home. In search of parts, they visit the construction site. There is not enough communication. Usually, parts are supplied in a week or two. On occasion, the incorrect parts are ordered. You, the customer, are not currently receiving heat or hot water. Speak with the professionals. The counties where we locate and get boiler components the fastest are Marin, Sonoma, and Napa. While we wait for a part, we can temporarily install portable boilers to supply heat and hot water. We put a lot of effort into making sure the boiler repair process is as easy as possible.

Combi Boilers- These can provide heat for the air and serve as your home’s hot water heater. These water heaters offer the advantages of being energy-efficient and not requiring a storage tank. In addition to giving your house air heating, these tankless water heaters can heat your domestic water on demand.
Tankless Boilers- Like a combi boiler, but just for the radiant heat portion of household water heating; they do not heat potable domestic water or radiant water. Excellent for efficiency and space savings.
Individual Heating Boilers- A lot of boilers merely heat spaces. Hot water for residential usage is provided by a separate water heater in the home. We service and repair sixty-year-old boilers. These vintage cast-iron boilers are incredibly robust. They are costly to run and inefficient, though. We have been installing and repairing condensing boilers for thirty years. Condensing boilers employ PVC exhaust pipe and are frequently 95% efficient.
Boilers attached to Indirect Water Heaters Large hot water storage tanks in some larger residences receive indirect heat from a space heating boiler. These bigger combo systems are updated and maintained by us.

Boiler FAQs

Is a tankless water heater installation the same as a boiler?

Combi boilers are multipurpose appliances that have the ability to operate as furnaces and water heaters. You could also warm the water in your home by installing an indirect water heater or an external water tank. Because they employ a system of copper pipes to convert water into steam for home heating, radiant heating systems heat water much more quickly than conventional water heaters. But a boiler can serve as a tankless water heater due to the fact that it heats water.

Are there differences between a furnace and a boiler?

Radiant heating systems work efficiently to heat water to a boiling point and then force the steam through all of the pipes at your property. A furnace provides independent heating for your home by using hot air that is driven by a motor through the furnace and into the ductwork and vents inside the house. In contrast, boilers can be used as both water warmers and furnaces; furnaces can only be heated by gas or electricity.

How often does a boiler need to be serviced?

It is advised that you get an annual boiler service. Professional tune-ups and inspections can assist in identifying any minor issues before they become larger, more expensive repairs. It’s also critical to ensure that your system is operating safely because it may contain hazardous materials that, in the event of a malfunction, could endanger you, your family, and your property. Generally speaking, it’s a good idea to get your unit inspected, especially after a prolonged period of inactivity.

Can a boiler be combined with a heat pump water heater?

A combi boiler can be combined with a heat pump water heater through a hybrid heating system. Combining a boiler system with a heat pump water heater is a good way to take advantage of the energy-efficient technology of heat pump water heaters while also being able to have the heating advantages of a boiler system, especially if your home has a high demand for heating. The cost of electricity might be too high for a single heat pump to provide all the heating in your home, but you can still enjoy some benefits of the renewable energy when combining it with a new or existing radiant heating system.
