Boiler repair, radiant heating service, and new boiler installation for San Rafael homes — from Terra Linda Eichlers to Gerstle Park Victorians.
San Rafael runs on hot water. From the hundreds of Joseph Eichler homes in Terra Linda and Lucas Valley with radiant tubing cast into the slab, to the cast-iron radiators in century-old Gerstle Park and Dominican houses, this is one of the most boiler-dependent towns in Marin. When Marin’s damp, foggy winters set in and a 30-year-old boiler short-cycles or a radiant loop goes cold, John Owens Services restores even, reliable heat the same day.
We offer same-day boiler repair across San Rafael, including Terra Linda, Sun Valley, and Gerstle Park, and most repairs are completed in a single visit. We’re licensed (CA #501853) and our trucks carry the common hydronic parts to finish most repairs on the first visit.
Yes — radiant heating in San Rafael’s Eichler tracts is our specialty. We diagnose and repair slab-embedded loops, circulators, and manifolds, and when a slab boiler ages out we plan a replacement that fits the original mid-century design.
A licensed technician inspects your radiant or radiator system, sizes the right high-efficiency or condensing boiler for your home, and provides a clear written estimate before any work. We handle permits and the full install so your San Rafael home gets steady, efficient heat with no guesswork.
Yes. Triangle Tube wound down its US operations, leaving many Marin homeowners without support, and we repair these systems where parts still exist or plan a clean, properly sized replacement boiler for your San Rafael home.
From the Marin coast to Sonoma wine country, we bring honest plumbing, heating & cooling to homeowners across both counties — based locally since 1986.
