How Much Does a New Boiler Install Cost in San Diego, CA?

Your boiler is a large & complex unit that will deliver years of exceptional heating to your entire California home. So it’s important that it’s installed correctly otherwise this costly investment can go to waste. Although multiple factors can determine the overall cost of a new boiler install, the type of boiler you get has the largest impact. Our expert technicians at My Plumber PLUS will help you find the perfect boiler to install that’s best for your California home.

The 3 main types of new boiler installs available are:

• Traditional Boilers
  Traditional Heat-Only Boilers have a two-tank system. One tank stores cold water, and the other tank is used to maintain the normal water level of your home’s central heating system. Benefits of having a traditional boiler in California include keeping up with California heating demands, and even if you have low water pressure from your mainline, there is no drawback to the capability of the traditional boiler. Traditional boilers are also compatible with older heating systems. However, owning a traditional boiler can take up a lot of space, and you will lose more energy than alternative options if the tank is not insulated properly.
• System Boilers
  System Boilers accomplish the same task as a traditional boiler, but in a more energy-efficient way. These types of boilers have a single-cylinder that stores hot water (like the traditional boilers) but the main difference is in how the boiler unit is constructed. The hot water & heating system components are built into the boiler unit itself, versus standalone units. This boiler system makes it more simple and easy to install the unit – as they do not require a separate tank to accomplish the same result. Benefits to having a System Boiler unit installed are that they are compatible with solar heating systems making them more energy-efficient than alternative options. Ask My Plumber PLUS for a price estimate on which boiler installation option is best for your home in San Diego, CA today!
• Combination Boilers
  A Combination Boiler system combines a central heating boiler and a high-efficiency water heater. The system doesn’t need a cylinder to store the water because the combination boiler heats the water from the mainline directly. Price estimates for combination boilers tend to be cheaper than traditional boilers because they are smaller, more efficient, and less complicated. Another reason to consider a combination boiler is that there is no need to worry about water pressure – as mentioned previously, the water is heated directly from the mainline. Another great reason to select a combination boiler is that there is no waiting time and hot water is on-demand because it does not have a tank storing water!

No matter the problem, our California boiler installation technicians will determine your heating & boiler needs & finances before any work is done so you know exactly what solution is best & affordable for your new boiler system.

Quality Boiler Repair and Replacement

Boilers have the longest expected lifespan of any heating or cooling unit. They can easily last 30 or more years, with some surpassing 50 years without any significant problems. But when they do start to act up, it can be quite serious. If you are having any of the following issues with your boiler, call us immediately to get a professional boiler repair.

Common Boiler Problems

• Rusting
  If your unit is showing signs of rusting, contact a professional tech right away. Rust is the number one killer of boiler systems. Once the metal becomes compromised a patch can be installed, but it will usually only get you a few more years of service. It’s a temporary fix to give you time to save up for a new unit.
• Leaks
  Leaking from the boiler itself can be a tricky situation. Most leaks are due to failed seals in the water pump but other can happen from mineral build-ups in the radiant pipes. The pressure in the system increases and forces water out at its weakest point. The leak can be patched, but it is usually better to remove the affected line and replace it. Other leaks can be due to faulty bleed valves and pressure release valves.
• Failing Chimney Liner
  Excessive heat or age can cause chimney liners to fail. The biggest problem with this is the damage that can be done to the structures surrounding the chimney. Warped wood can create weak points in the entire house roof structure.
• Water Pump Bearings Failing
  If you are hearing a grinding sound whenever your boiler kicks on, you’ve got bad bearings in your water pump. This is a death sentence for the pump and it will need to be replaced in short order. If you have a very older boiler, the replacement part may not be available and you may be forced to purchase and entirely new boiler system.
• Pilot Light Issues
  One of the easier boiler repairs on the list is the pilot light. Most of the time we can simply clean the residue away from the pilot and everything will work just like new. However, if you have a rotary cup burner, it may be better to replace it with a more efficient model. If you are having pilot light issues please call us immediately.
• Thermostat Problems
  Thermostats go bad. If yours does, we can replace it in about 10 minutes. Usually these problems present with uneven heating or a failure to reach or maintain the desired temperature in the home.
• Air In The Lines
  Air in a closed system is a bad sign. You may hear pips banging or have areas furthest away from the boiler not receiving any heat. If these things happen, you have a leak. If you have an open system (like most residential boilers) then you may simply need to bleed the lines periodically to remove air form the system.
• Warped Boiler Doors
  Cheap boiler doors can warp. Even steel doors can warp over time. If your boiler doors are warping they are releasing combustion gases into your home. These can include carbon monoxide – a very deadly gas. We can repair these leaks with high temperature caulk or a ceramic rope gasket. If the door is too warped to fix, we may be able to replace it with a new one or suggest you have a new boiler installed for your family’s safety.
• Carbon Build-Up
  If you can’t remember the last time you had your boiler cleaned, there’s a good chance that there is significant carbon soot build-up. This reduces the efficiency of your burner and increased the amount of combustion gases produced. A simple cleaning can increase your boiler’s efficiency and increase indoor air quality in one go.

New Boiler Installation

We would much rather repair your old boiler than have to install a new one, but sometimes your boiler is too far gone to fix. In these cases, we can help you with a boiler replacement. Most of the time the newer unit will be smaller than the one currently installed in your home. That’s because older models had efficiencies between 45 and 60 percent while new ones are up to 85 percent efficient. Instead of a 170,000 BTU unit, you may only need a 120,000 BTU one. We will do a full square footage audit and calculate the correct size for your new unit. This is all included in the price of the install.
