We are firmly entrenched in the winter weather already, so you hopefully have a good heater in place. If you are thinking forward to a heating replacement when spring rolls around, or if a sudden breakdown has left you in need of a prompt heating replacement, be sure to consider the use of a boiler in your home. Boilers have quite a few benefits to offer homeowners.
Just remember that the key to getting the most from any heating system, boilers included, is to schedule service with trained professionals. That way, you can know for sure that your boiler is of the right size for your home and that it is installed properly every step of the way. Work with us, and take advantage of these boiler benefits.
Durability
Boilers are very reliable heating systems. There are obviously some great furnaces and heat pumps from some of the best manufacturers in the industry on the market today. However, the fact remains that forced air heaters simply have more moving, mechanical parts than boiler systems do. That alone means that there is less to potentially go wrong with a boiler. They also tend to have long lifespans.
Efficiency
Boilers do not force hot air throughout homes the way that furnaces or heat pumps do. This means that there is no risk of air leaks via leaky ductwork, so you don't have to worry about that type of inefficiency. Also, using a boiler in a radiant heating system, such as in-floor hydronic heating, means that you apply heat directly to surfaces in your home. You won't have to worry about hot air rising to the ceiling and going to waste when you use a boiler in New Britain, CT.
Comfort
Radiant heating benefits you in terms of comfort as well as efficiency. By applying warmth directly to the floor, and then allowing that warmth to radiate out to other objects in the house, you can enjoy even, long-lasting heating in your living space. Air will cool down faster than the hot water in the pipes, and may leave the lower regions of a room feeling chilly as it rises.
