Boilers capture and heat water within a single unit using a heat exchanger. Once the water is heated to the correct temperature, the water is distributed through pipes throughout the household, providing heat to each room. Once the heat has been distributed to the room, the now-cool water returns to the boiler to reheat again, and the cycle repeats.
Yes! Modern high-efficiency boilers can achieve efficiency ratings of 90% or more Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE). There is minimal heat loss in the process of distributing the heated water through pipes or radiant floor heating systems.
Contact a Harker expert to learn more about modern boilers and how they can efficiently heat your home.
Most boilers last between 15 to 25 years with proper upkeep. Once it’s time to replace your boiler, it’s important that your new boiler is installed accurately and safely so it can operate efficiently throughout its lifespan. Contact Harker Heating and Cooling for your boiler installation needs.
Like cars, costs for a new boiler vary depending on the boiler’s model, capabilities, and brand. Complex installations or additional upgrades can also add to initial costs. On average, a standard efficiency boiler costs anywhere between $4,000 and $12,000.
Harker experts can offer recommended boiler models that are the best fit for your home and provide a comprehensive quote based on your needs and price range.
While boilers don’t have air filters, as boilers move water instead of air, some have magnetic filters or oil filters to collect iron, oil, and other pollutants from the boiler water. A Harker technician can help you determine if your boiler requires a filter to operate most efficiently, and assist with installation.
