What Is a Boiler?

Boilers, or hydronic heating systems, use electricity or natural gas to heat water before distributing it throughout your home. Your home can be heated with the use of boilers through radiant floor heating, or more commonly, radiators. Both boilers and radiators can come in many shapes and sizes, all of which have their own benefits.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can any plumber fix a boiler?

    Not all plumbers have the appropriate training to perform boiler heating system repairs and maintenance. Our boiler plumbers are Montreal’s heating system specialists.

  • Can I convert from a gas boiler to an electric boiler?

    Our boiler specialists are experts in helping you make the switch from a natural gas boiler to electric, or vice versa.


  • How often should you service your boiler?

    Gas and electric boilers should be serviced once a year. During this annual maintenance, the qualified boiler plumber will examine the unit to ensure that it is operating safely and efficiently. Not performing regular maintenance on your boiler will make it less efficient. It will consume more energy and increase the risk of breakdown. A poorly maintained gas boiler can also pose a serious safety threat to you, your family and your home. Summer is the perfect time to have your boiler serviced so that it is ready to hit the ground running when the cold weather hits.


  • How long does a boiler last?

    The average well-maintained boiler lasts anywhere from 10 to 15 years. Annual maintenance can extend the life of your boiler, but an old boiler may be less efficient and cost you more. A qualified boiler specialist will be able to assist you with the replacement of your old boiler.


  • What is included in gas boiler maintenance?

    The annual maintenance of your gas boiler includes the following:


    • Verification, disassembly and cleaning of the burner and blower. Adjustment of the burner settings if necessary.
    • Checking the cleanliness and tightness of the boiler's heat exchanger.
    • Checking the flue gas exhaust stack and its CO2 percentage.
    • Inspection, cleaning, and adjustment of safety controls.
    • Verification of the components and devices of the ignition and distribution systems.
    • Inspection and maintenance of the combustion chamber.
