Boilers & Furnaces in Richmond, BC
Heating Your Home & Office Efficiently
Most heating systems using radiant heat are fueled by a boiler. For efficient operation of many home heating systems, boilers are an excellent choice. However, home furnaces are usually less expensive and provide cooling as well. At Tap-Roots, we are your furnace and boiler specialists and will handle all of your installation and repair needs. We offer furnace service and expert maintenance to any furnace or boiler.
<h2>Boiler Installation and Repairs</h2>
A boiler produces hot water or steam and distributes it through pipes to heat radiating devices in a room. Although boilers are the most efficient form of central heating, they are also the most expensive. Regular maintenance on your boiler is important every year to ensure you have heating for the entirety of the North Vancouver winters without costly repairs.
Boilers can be:
- Gas
- Oil
- Propane
- Solid fuel-burning
