How can we Help?
When the brutal winter weather hits the Wasatch Front, your home’s heating system is your first line of defense. Unlike forced-air furnaces, boilers use water to provide quiet, consistent, and dust-free radiant heat through baseboards and radiators. However, when a boiler breaks down in the middle of January, it becomes an immediate emergency.
At Plumbing Utah, we specialize in residential and commercial boiler repair, installation, and maintenance. Dispatching directly out of our Midvale headquarters, our certified heating technicians provide rapid, priority response to Sandy, Midvale, West Jordan, and the surrounding Salt Lake Valley. Whether you need a midnight repair to restore your heat or want to upgrade to a high-efficiency system, we deliver permanent solutions with zero hidden fees.
Boilers rarely fail without giving you a warning first. Because Utah has famously hard water, our boilers face unique challenges. Call our dispatch team if you notice any of the following:
We don’t just patch leaks; we provide full-lifecycle care for your hydronic heating system to ensure maximum efficiency and lower winter utility bills.
We know that a lack of heat is a safety issue. We offer around-the-clock emergency boiler repairs with no extra dispatch fees for nights, weekends, or holidays. Our technicians carry the specialized parts required to fix zone valves, aquastats, and circulator pumps on the spot.
Older cast-iron boilers are incredibly durable but highly inefficient, often wasting up to 30% of the fuel they consume. Today’s modern, high-efficiency condensing boilers are significantly smaller, run quietly, and can drastically reduce your natural gas bills. We provide custom installation sizing to ensure your new unit perfectly matches your property’s needs without overpaying for one you don’t need.
The best way to avoid a midnight breakdown is proactive maintenance. Our annual boiler tune-ups include checking the pressure tank, bleeding trapped air from radiators, inspecting the heat exchanger, and flushing the system to remove mineral scale and sludge.
While other companies treat boilers as an afterthought to their standard HVAC services, we specialize in the intricate plumbing required for hydronic heating.
Why is my boiler running, but the house is still cold? If the boiler is firing but the heat isn’t reaching your rooms, the issue is usually in the distribution. This is commonly caused by trapped air in the radiators (which needs to be bled), a broken circulator pump that is failing to push the water, or a faulty zone valve that is stuck closed.
Should I repair or replace my old boiler? If your boiler is over 15 years old, requires frequent repairs, or has a cracked heat exchanger, replacement is usually the most cost-effective option. Upgrading to a modern, high-efficiency boiler will immediately lower your monthly operating costs and provide much more reliable heating.
What is the correct water pressure for a residential boiler? Most residential boilers should operate between 12 and 15 PSI (pounds per square inch). If the pressure drops below 10 PSI, the system may fail to circulate hot water. If it spikes too high, the pressure relief valve will open, allowing water to leak onto your floor.
Don’t spend another night shivering in your own home. Trust the local boiler experts to get your heat running smoothly and efficiently.
