Boiler Installation & Replacement Port Moody

Condensing boiler being installed with new piping in a Port Moody home

A new boiler is one of the biggest upgrades you can make to a Port Moody home that runs on radiators or in-floor heat. Eaton's Heating has installed them here for more than 20 years, and as an authorized dealer for Navien, Viessmann, and Bosch we bring you the best condensing boilers on the market. A new unit runs quieter, uses less gas, and connects to the heating system already in the house. A combi model makes the hot water for your taps as well. We start with a free in-home assessment and a written quote, and the quote covers everything: the boiler, the pump, the expansion tank, the valves, the venting, the gas fitting, the electrical connection, and removal of the old unit. Financing is available at zero percent over 12 months.

What a New Boiler Brings to a Port Moody Home

Wall-hung boiler with pump, expansion tank, and zone connections during a Port Moody installation

A new condensing boiler does three things for a house that already runs on radiators or in-floor heat. It burns 95 percent or more of its gas as heat instead of the 80 percent an older boiler manages, so the gas bill drops every month it runs. It runs quietly, because a wall-hung unit with a modulating burner ramps up and down instead of switching on and off. And if you choose a combi model, it makes the hot water for the taps as well, so the hot water tank comes out and the mechanical room gets its floor back. The free in-home assessment is where we see which of those matters most in your house. The written quote covers the whole boiler replacement with nothing added on install day.

As an authorized dealer for Navien, Viessmann, and Bosch, we install condensing boilers in two forms. A heating-only boiler heats the house and leaves your existing hot water tank in place. A combi boiler does both jobs from one wall-hung unit, and it is the choice we recommend most often in a home where the tank is also getting old. Sizing is done from experience with the system in front of us: how many radiators, how many floor loops, how the house has heated in past winters, and how many bathrooms the hot water has to serve. Every boiler we install carries the manufacturer's parts warranty, and the new unit comes with the pump, expansion tank, and valves matched to it rather than reused from the old one.

The boilers we replace in Port Moody are mostly the floor-standing cast-iron units in Glenayre and College Park, some running since the 1980s, and the first generation of wall-hung boilers in the 1990s and 2000s homes on Heritage Mountain and in Heritage Woods. In the older homes the new boiler goes on the wall where the old one stood on the floor, vents through the wall with plastic pipe, and connects to the same radiator piping. In the hillside homes the boiler is usually in a walkout-level mechanical room, and the job is a like-for-like swap onto the zones and mixing valve already there. Our Port Moody HVAC services in both kinds of home usually take in the hot water tank at the same visit, since a combi boiler can take its place. Eaton's Heating is TSBC licensed (LGA0200006), a Home Performance Contractor Network member, and holds a 4.9 rating across 400-plus Google reviews.

Install day follows a set order. The old boiler is drained, disconnected, and removed. The new unit is hung, and the piping around it is built new: isolation valves so the boiler can be serviced without draining the house, an air separator, a magnetic filter that catches the rust an old radiator system sheds, an expansion tank, a backflow preventer, a fill valve, and a hose bib for flushing. Then the direct venting goes through the wall, the gas line and the electrical are connected, and the system is filled, purged, and fired. Every zone is run and checked before we leave. Most replacements are finished in one day, and a combi conversion that also removes a tank sometimes runs into a second. Financing at zero percent over 12 months is arranged at the quote so nothing is left to settle afterward.

Steadier Heat With Less Gas: How a Modulating Boiler Runs

An old boiler runs one way. It fires at full output, heats the water to a fixed temperature, shuts off, and waits for the thermostat to call again, so the radiators go from hot to cool and back all day. A new condensing boiler has a modulating burner, which means the flame adjusts between a low setting and full output depending on how much heat the house needs at that moment. On a mild November afternoon it runs low and long. On a cold February morning it runs at full output. The radiators stay at a steady warmth instead of cycling, the rooms hold their temperature without the swings, and the boiler burns only the gas the day calls for.

In a Port Moody home with radiators upstairs and in-floor heat downstairs, the boiler's control and the mixing valve on the floor loop work together, so each zone gets the water temperature it needs from the same unit. We set the controls up at installation for the house and its system, and we show you the thermostat or the app that runs it before we leave. It is the part of a new boiler people notice first, and it is why the boilers we install feel different in the house and not just on the bill.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question about your HVAC system? Book an appointment using the form below, or call (604) 535-8434 for immediate help.

How long does a boiler installation take in Port Moody?

A like-for-like replacement, where a new wall-hung boiler goes onto existing radiators and zones, is usually finished in one day, with the heat back on that evening. A conversion to a combi boiler that also removes a hot water tank sometimes runs into a second day, because the tap-water piping is rerouted to the new unit. We tell you at the assessment which one yours is.

Navien, Viessmann, or Bosch. Which one should I choose?

All three are condensing boilers we install and stand behind. Navien is the one we install most in Port Moody, particularly the combi units, for a home that wants heat and tap water from one compact unit. Viessmann is the choice for the largest hillside homes and for systems with many zones, where its range of sizes and its controls fit best. Bosch sits between them and is often the right pick for a straightforward heating-only replacement. At the assessment we recommend one based on your radiators, your floor loops, and your hot water use, and if two would work the written quote shows both.

Can the new boiler replace my hot water tank too?

Yes. A combi boiler heats the house and makes hot water for the taps on demand, so the tank comes out and you stop paying to keep 40 gallons hot around the clock. It is the right choice in most Port Moody homes with up to three bathrooms. In the largest homes, or where several showers run at once, a heating-only boiler with a separate hot water tank or tankless unit can keep up better, and we will tell you which one fits at the assessment.

Are there rebates for a new boiler?

Sometimes, and the programs change. As a FortisBC Trade Ally we check the FortisBC rebate programs that apply to condensing boilers at the time of your assessment, confirm your eligibility, and walk you through the application if one fits. We do not promise an amount before the assessment. Our BC rebates page lists what is current.

Will a new boiler work with my old radiators and in-floor heat?

Yes. The boiler heats water, and the radiators and floor loops carry it, so the distribution stays as it is. In the hillside homes with radiators upstairs and in-floor heat downstairs, the new boiler connects to the same two zones and the same mixing valve, and a modulating boiler holds each at its temperature more steadily than the old one did. In a Glenayre or College Park home, the cast-iron radiators are usually in better shape than the boiler that fed them, and they stay.

My boiler is 25 years old and still works. Why would I replace it?

You may not need to, and if a pump or a valve is all it needs, our boiler repair in Port Moody crew will fix it and say so. Replacement is the better choice when the heat exchanger has cracked or is leaking, when parts for the model are no longer available, or when a boiler that old is costing you more in gas every winter than a new one would and a repair bill has landed on top of that. The assessment is free, and we put both numbers in front of you.
