Was so impressed with the service I got! Tim figured out quickly why my radiant heat was not working and fixed it. He explained everything to me and answered all my questions. The office communicated his arrival time with updates, so that I could keep working until he arrived.

Boilers are pieces of machinery that run with great energy efficiency. They usually last 10 to 15 years and may last fifteen to twenty years before needing to be replaced. You can have wall or floor heating with this type of system. However, you will eventually have to replace your radiant heating system. You can trust John Owens Services in Novato as your go-to local plumbing and HVAC company for excellent customer service on every project when it comes to boilers.
You might need to replace your unit if any of the following are true:
These technologies are so complex that even a minor problem could have a big impact. If a significant issue occurs, like a total shutdown on radiant floor heating, you can be convinced to install a new radiant heat system when, in fact, a small fix will keep it running smoothly. We can offer you an unbiased assessment of your plumbing/heating system when something goes wrong and you think repairs are needed so you can determine if a replacement unit needs to be installed.
Every boiler that uses hydronic heating will ultimately need servicing. It can take some time to look for and obtain the necessary parts because the majority of boiler companies are located on the East Coast. Our vans are equipped with the most commonly required replacement and maintenance parts since they are designed to service hydronic boilers. Because we have a sizable inventory of boiler components from specialized manufacturers in our warehouse, we can speed repairs. Even if the parts are not in stock, our parts department can locate boiler repair parts with the quickest turnaround times. Nothing is more inconvenient than having a less experienced boiler specialist come to your house or place of business to diagnose the problem, as far as we can tell. They come to your house multiple times. They go to the building site in search of parts. Insufficient communication occurs. Parts are often delivered within a week or two. Sometimes the wrong parts are ordered. As the consumer, you are not currently getting hot water or heat. Consult the experts. Marin, Sonoma, and Napa are the counties where we locate and obtain boiler components the quickest. We can temporarily install portable boilers to provide heat and hot water while we wait for a part. We work hard to ensure that the boiler repair procedure is as simple as we can.
Combi Boilers- These can be used as the hot water heater and air conditioner. The fact that these water heaters don’t need a storage tank and are energy-efficient is a plus. Both the water and the room are heated by these tankless water heaters.
Tankless Boilers- They function similarly to a combi boiler, but just for heating residential water’s radiant heat component—they don’t provide potable or domestic hot water. Exceptional in terms of space conservation and energy efficiency.
Individual Heating Boilers- Many boilers only provide space heating. A separate water heater in the house provides hot water for domestic use. We maintain and fix boilers that are sixty years old. These old-fashioned cast-iron boilers are remarkably durable. However, they are inefficient and expensive to operate. For thirty years, we have been installing and maintaining condensing boilers. Condensing boilers are often 95% efficient and use PVC exhaust pipe.
Boilers attached to Indirect Water Heaters In some larger homes, a space heating boiler provides indirect heat to massive hot water storage tanks. We keep these larger combo systems updated and repaired.

Combi boilers are multifunctional equipment that have the ability to be installed and used as water heaters or furnaces. Installing an outdoor water tank or an indirect water heater is another way to warm the water in your house. Radiant heating systems provide hot water far faster than conventional water heaters because they use a network of copper pipes to turn water into steam for home heating. But because a boiler heats water, it can also be utilized as a tankless water heater in addition to being a furnace.
Water is efficiently brought to a boil using radiant heating systems, which then push the steam through your house’s plumbing system. A furnace may warm your house on its own by producing hot air that is powered by a motor. The ducting and vents in the home might get hot air thanks to the furnace. But although furnaces can only be fueled by gas or electricity, boilers can be used as both water warmers and furnaces.
It is recommended that you have your system serviced annually for improved water and indoor air quality. Professional installation maintenance checks and tune-ups can help detect any small problems before they become bigger, more costly fixes. Additionally, you should make sure your system is placed safely because it can have parts that are dangerous and could harm you, your family, or your property in the event of a malfunction. In general, having a regular review of your installation makes sense, especially following an extended period of inactivity to make sure your air, water, floor, walls, etc. are heated efficiently.
A hybrid heating system can be created by combining a heat pump water heater and a combi boiler if there is room on the site. If your home needs a lot of heating, combining these is a terrific way to benefit from both systems’ thermal advantages. If you combine a heat pump installation with an existing radiant heating system, you can still benefit from some renewable energy sources even if the cost of electricity is too high for one heat pump to provide warmth for your entire home.
Our Sonoma and Marin County plumbing services will take care of any problems to your electric or natural gas system as quickly and effectively as feasible. The experts in our fully equipped trucks, also referred to as “rolling warehouses,” can usually complete several repairs on site in a single visit for almost all jobs!
