The entire HVAC industry is undergoing a massive shift in the materials and chemicals used in our everyday installations, repairs, and tune-ups. One of the biggest changes happening right now is the introduction of two refrigerants that aim to help reach different greenhouse gas emission goals across multiple states. This is what that all means for your wallet.

Monday, September 11th, 2023What Exactly Is Boiler Retrofitting?
Monday, July 17th, 2023Boiler Retrofitting can include the removal and replacement of an existing boiler running a heating system to improve reliability, efficiency, and or functionality. One example would be changing a mid-efficiency boiler running in-floor radiant heat to a new stainless steel condensing boiler, this gives the option of targeting the ideal water temperature for the desired load rather than overheating the water and using some form of mixing to achieve the desired temperature.
We can also retrofit components in the system other than the boiler to increase efficiency, serviceability, and overall appearance. These modifications can be small or vast and include automatic air purgers, automatic pressure-reducing fill valves, mixing systems, control systems, and isolation.

Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Boiler
Monday, January 16th, 2023Boilers are designed to be as reliable as possible. They’re powerful heating systems that are also some of the most long-lasting systems on the market. Seriously, a boiler can last 20+ years of running efficiently without major hiccups, and we see this all the time in homes throughout the area.
However, boilers aren’t designed to last forever and sometimes they’ll give off strange noises, foul odors, and other issues that can be a premonition of a replacement to come.
Your boiler gives off warning signals when it’s nearing the end of its lifecycle, though not all those signals are loud and apparent. Sometimes it’s a subtle difference that you need to pay attention to before you can know for sure. To know if you truly need boiler replacement in Bellingham, WA, consider these signs.
