Port Coquitlam Boiler Installation & Repair Experts

Port Coquitlam Boiler Install Experts has been handling boiler installations across the Tri-Cities and Greater Vancouver for over a decade. We're not a general HVAC shop that does boilers on the side. Boilers are our thing — hydronic systems, radiant floors, combi units, gas boiler replacements, the works.

Every job is handled by a licensed gas fitter certified through the BC Safety Authority. We pull the permits, schedule the inspection, and make sure the finished system runs the way it's supposed to. No corners cut. No callbacks.

Whether you're replacing a 20-year-old boiler that's finally given up, or building a brand-new hydronic system from scratch, we'll size it properly, install it cleanly, and walk you through the controls before we leave.

Boiler Projects We Install in Port Coquitlam

From straightforward replacements to complex multi-zone builds.

New Home Hydronic System

Full hydronic heating design and installation for new construction — from the boiler room to every zone valve and manifold. We work directly with builders and sub-trade coordinators on schedule.

Boiler Room Replacement

Complete removal of an aging oil or gas boiler, expansion tank, and associated piping, followed by a high-efficiency gas boiler installation with updated controls and zone management.

Combi Boiler Conversion

Converting from a separate furnace and hot water tank to a single combination boiler — freeing up valuable mechanical room space and cutting operating costs.

Radiant Slab Retrofit

Adding a hydronic radiant system to an existing slab-on-grade using low-temperature tubing, manifolds, and a condensing boiler optimized for radiant operation.

Multi-Zone Heating Upgrade

Installing zone valves, thermostats, and updated controls to give each area of your home independent temperature control from one central boiler plant.

Commercial Boiler Installation

High-BTU commercial boiler installations for strata buildings, light industrial, or institutional facilities — including full permitting, commissioning, and operator training.

Snow Melt System

Hydronic snow melt systems for driveways, walkways, and steps using PEX tubing, manifolds, and a dedicated boiler or shared zone from an existing system.

Emergency No-Heat Response

Rapid diagnosis and repair when a boiler fails mid-season — covering pressure vessel failures, heat exchanger leaks, ignition faults, and control board replacements.

How We Install Boilers: Equipment & Standards

We work with condensing gas boilers from Navien, Viessmann, Weil-McLain, and IBC Technologies — brands with proven track records in BC's climate and reliable parts availability. Every boiler we install runs a minimum AFUE of 90%, and most of our residential installs land at 95–98%.

All hydronic piping is copper or cross-linked polyethylene (PEX), depending on the application. Radiant floor systems use oxygen-barrier PEX-A tubing run through a manifold system that lets us balance each zone independently.

We follow the BC Plumbing Code, the BC Building Code, and CSA B149.1 on every job. Permits are pulled before work starts. The Safety Authority inspection is scheduled as part of the project, not an afterthought.

Why Port Coquitlam Homeowners Call Us First

Actually Licensed

We're not a handyman with a gas wrench. Every tech holds a BC Safety Authority Gas Fitter Class B licence. It's the law, and we take it seriously.

We Pull the Permits

Every boiler installation in BC requires a permit. We handle the paperwork and coordinate the safety inspection — so you're covered, not cutting corners.

Correct Equipment

We do a heat-loss calculation before recommending a boiler size. An oversized or undersized boiler costs you money every month. We get it right from the start.

Warranty-Compliant Installs

Manufacturer warranties require certified installation. Our work meets every spec, so your warranty holds. We'll give you the paperwork to prove it.

Emergency Response

Boilers don't break at convenient times. We're available around the clock for emergencies across the Tri-Cities and surrounding communities.

No Upselling

We'll tell you if your existing boiler can be repaired rather than replaced. We're not in the business of selling equipment you don't need.

Call or message us. We'll ask a few quick questions about your system and get back to you with an accurate estimate — no site visit required for most jobs.

On-Site Assessment

For larger installs, we come out to measure, assess your existing system, and do a heat-loss calculation so we can spec the right equipment.

03

04

Inspection & Handoff

Boiler Installation FAQ — Port Coquitlam

How long does a boiler installation take?
Most residential boiler installations are completed in one day. Complex systems with new pipework or radiant floor integration may take two days.
What size boiler do I need for my home?
Sizing depends on your home's square footage, insulation quality, window area, and climate zone. We do a proper heat-loss calculation before recommending a unit — never a rough guess.
Do I need a permit to replace my boiler in BC?
Yes. Any gas appliance installation in British Columbia requires a permit and inspection by the BC Safety Authority. We handle the permit application as part of every installation.
What's the difference between a combi boiler and a regular boiler?
A combi (combination) boiler heats both your home and your domestic hot water on demand from a single unit, eliminating the need for a separate hot water tank. A standard boiler heats your home only and relies on a separate water heater.
How often should a boiler be serviced?
Once a year, ideally in early fall before the heating season starts. Annual service keeps efficiency high, extends the lifespan of the unit, and is often required to maintain the manufacturer warranty.
My boiler is making a banging noise — what is it?
Banging or kettling usually means scale buildup on the heat exchanger, low water pressure, or a faulty pump. It's worth getting it looked at quickly — ignored, it stresses the heat exchanger and shortens the boiler's life.
What brands of boilers do you install?
We work with Navien, Viessmann, Weil-McLain, IBC Technologies, and other proven brands. We'll recommend the best fit for your system type and budget.
Can you install radiant floor heating in an existing home?
Yes. Hydronic radiant can be retrofitted under hardwood, tile, or engineered flooring using low-profile systems. It's a bigger project than new construction, but absolutely doable and well worth it.
Is a gas boiler more efficient than an electric one?
In BC, gas boilers are typically less expensive to operate than electric baseboard — especially with a condensing boiler running at 95%+ AFUE efficiency. The right choice depends on your current fuel access and setup.
What areas do you serve from Port Coquitlam?
We serve all of the Tri-Cities (Port Coquitlam, Coquitlam, Port Moody) and surrounding communities including Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, Burnaby, New Westminster, and Langley.
