Replacing Your Hot Water Boiler Soon? Summer is a Great Time!

April 15, 2022

Bungalow in sunny spring weatherWith warm weather fast upon us, we’d like to repeat a message from a year ago, reminding our customers whose homes are heated by hot water that summer is a perfect time to replace an aging boiler, or to perform other work on your system. Whether replacing an inefficient, aging, or problematic boiler, expanding baseboard coverage, or installing a high performance indirect-fired water heater, now is a great time to talk with our team.

Boiler Replacement: Know Your Options

Quality replacement boiler options are broader than ever, featuring efficiencies ranging from 80% to 96% AFUE, and a variety of equipment styles, dimensions, and venting options, as well. For example, there are ‘traditional’ cast iron floor models that vent up thru the roof and are compatible with standard, metal flue pipe systems, and there are also an array of compact, highly efficient, wall-hung units that have stainless steel heat exchangers. Some boilers feature sealed combustion venting and plastic PVC vent piping, along with modulating designs that automatically adjust heat output to most efficiently and comfortably heat a home under varying outdoor conditions.

The list of replacement boiler options goes on. As always, our team works very closely with homeowners all around the Denver-Boulder area to find just the right fit for each home and family that we provide free install quotes for.

Other Hot Water Heat Work We Do When It Gets Warm Outside!

If you have other things on your wish list for your hydronic heating system, now is a great time to explore those, as well. From new, more efficient and comfortable ways to distribte heat to your home, to combining your domestic hot water heater with your boiler for exceptional performance, there’s lots of upgrades that may make sense for you to consider this spring or summer.

One of the most popular upgrades with many of our boiler customers are indirect-fired water heaters. Indirect water heaters, also known as “sidearm water heaters,” are powered by your boiler, have long design lives and outstanding warranties, and far outperform conventional gas or electric water heaters when it comes to increasing your hot water supply and shortening hot water recovery time.
