Boiler Replacement & Installation

Boiler Replacement for Okotoks Homes

A boiler replacement involves more than choosing a new boiler with a similar output rating. The equipment needs to work with the building's heating load, water temperatures, existing distribution system, zone controls, circulators, venting, gas supply and mechanical-room layout. With more than 38 years of combined plumbing and heating experience, Project Heating & Plumbing works with boiler and hydronic systems throughout Okotoks and the surrounding Foothills. We assess how the existing system operates, identify what should remain or be upgraded and recommend a boiler solution based on the actual heating system.

Depending on the application, options may include high-efficiency condensing boilers, combi boilers and boiler systems integrated with radiant in-floor heating or domestic hot-water equipment. We explain the differences and help you choose a system that makes sense for the property rather than simply replacing equipment piece for piece.

Consider a New Boiler?

When It's Time to Replace or Install a Boiler

Boiler age is only one factor when considering replacement. Reliability, repair history, equipment condition, system performance, parts availability and the cost of a major repair should all be considered before deciding whether to repair or replace the system.

Repeated Boiler Repairs

If your boiler has become unreliable or requires repeated repairs, it may be worth comparing the cost of continuing to repair the existing equipment with the cost and benefits of replacement.

A Major Repair on an Aging Boiler

A significant component failure does not automatically mean the boiler needs replacement. However, when an older system requires an expensive repair, its overall condition, repair history and remaining service life should be considered before investing further.

Heating Performance Has Declined

Cold zones, slow heat-up or inconsistent temperatures can be caused by the boiler or by other parts of the hydronic system, including pumps, controls or distribution piping. We assess the system first to determine whether repair, system upgrades or boiler replacement makes the most sense.

You're Upgrading the Heating System

After installation, we start and test the boiler, confirm heating-zone operation and check the connected pumps, controls and system operation. We then review the new equipment and basic operating information with you.

Why Choose Hydronic Boiler Heating?

A properly designed boiler system can provide efficient, flexible heating for homes that use radiant floors or other hydronic heat emitters. The performance of the system depends on proper equipment selection, controls and installation—not just the boiler itself.

Comfortable Hydronic Heat — Boiler systems distribute heat using heated water, making them well suited to radiant floors and other hydronic heating applications where steady, even comfort is a priority.

Independent Heating Zones — Hydronic systems can be designed with multiple heating zones, allowing different areas of a home or building to operate based on their individual heating requirements.

High-Efficiency Boiler Options — Modern condensing boilers can provide high operating efficiency when the equipment and system water temperatures are suited to condensing operation.

Flexible Mechanical-System Options — Depending on the application, a boiler system can work with radiant in-floor heating and other hydronic equipment, while combi or indirect-water-heating options may also be considered when domestic hot water is part of the project.

"We had a great experience with Taylor this past week. Our furnace wasn’t working and he came out that morning to take a look at it. Unfortunately it wasn’t working because of a visit from a different furnace company.
He figured out the issue and replaced the part within a few days for us and gave us lots of great info! He was very easy to communicate with and would recommend him to anyone."

"Taylor from Project Heating and Plumbing was fantastic! He responded to my inquiry quickly, arrived on time, and efficiently handled all my plumbing and HVAC issues. His workmanship was excellent, and his pricing was very fair—I had two other quotes for comparison. He communicated clearly throughout the process and even left the work area cleaner than when he arrived. I highly recommend Taylor for any plumbing or HVAC needs, and I’m planning to have him back to install an AC unit in the spring."
