Hydronic Heating Boiler Installation

Hydronic boilers are also known as “radiant heating” and “in-floor heating” systems.

A tubing system sends hot water beneath the floor—either along baseboard heaters or through radiators to heat your property.

This has been a popular choice in Calgary homes and businesses for years because it provides rapid, evenly distributed, and efficient heating to all rooms.

High-Efficiency and Atmospheric Boiler Installation

What Are Atmospheric Boilers?

With atmospheric boilers, combustion air/flue gases are drawn through the boiler without a fan.

They control the heating output according to variable load requirements.

Atmospheric boilers are durable, easy to install and require minimal maintenance and the different sizes available make them a good option for homes or businesses in Calgary.

However, they are of lower efficiency than other available boiler systems.

What’s the Benefit of a High-Efficiency Boiler?

High-efficiency boilers generally use condensing technology. They have several advantages over lower efficiency models:

• A significant reduction in monthly energy bills—up to 30 to 50 percent immediately
• Lower emissions—this makes them kinder to the environment
• Compact design—so they may take up less space than your existing boiler
• No chimney required—just a short pipe through the side of the property is required

You can weigh up these benefits against the higher upfront cost for this type of boiler.

Combustion Anaylsis

An Essential Part of the New Boiler Installation Process

Combustion analysis is the science of determining, then perfecting the burn on a particular appliance, achieving clean and controlled heat output.

Although it is often overlooked on new installs and routine yearly maintenance, it can be critical to the life of your boiler, furnace, or hot water heater. Unfortunately, gas appliances often get hooked up and simply turned on by the installer, who may assume that the factory has done their job of calibrating the gas-to-air ratio.

If your boiler is constantly full of soot or dirt, you likely have a combustion issue! Let Alpha Plumbing ensure your gas appliances are set up and running correctly.

We use the latest combustion analysis technology to measure the combustion levels, then adjust them so your appliance is optimized both for efficiency and safety! The result is a gas appliance that achieves clean, complete combustion and burns the exact engineered amount of gas.

Don’t clog up your gas burners and savings account by burning too much gas—let us get you dialed in!
