Boilers are an effective way to keep your home heated — but they often require specialised care.
Boilers provide consistent, comfortable heat by warming water and distributing it through radiators, baseboards, or in-floor radiant heating systems. Unlike forced-air furnaces, boilers heat your home without blowing air, resulting in quieter operation and more even warmth.
In Edmonton, boilers are common in older homes, custom builds, and properties with radiant floor heating. Modern high-efficiency boilers and combi boilers are far more energy-efficient than older systems and offer significant comfort and utility savings.
A combi boiler — short for combination boiler — provides both home heating and domestic hot water from a single unit. Instead of storing hot water in a tank, it heats water on demand.
This makes combi boilers ideal for:
Boilers are especially valued during Edmonton’s deep cold periods because radiant systems provide consistent warmth without temperature swings.
Combi boilers are excellent, highly efficient systems that manage all of your hot water to provide central heating AND consumer hot water (showers, baths, cleaning, drinking, etc.) all in one single system. Benefits include reclaiming storage space, lower utility bills, and endless hot water. That means no unexpected, cold-water interruptions during your relaxing showers!

However, there are also other signs of needing repair that shouldn't be ignored. Whether you have no heat or your boiler is making noises, it's important to call a professional like ProSolutions for your boiler repair, because boiler systems are complex and require specialized training. Addressing issues quickly means protecting against further, preventable problems such as water damage or even heating failure.

Boilers require specific expertise. Proper combustion setup, pressure balancing, and hydronic system calibration are critical for efficiency and longevity.
Professional installation and servicing ensures:





Most boilers have an average lifespan of about 10-15 years, though it can be extended with regular maintenance and servicing. Not only will regular maintenance ensure potential issues are addressed before they become problems, it will also help prevent your boiler from breaking down when you need it most.
To keep your boiler running efficiently, safely, and reliably, it should be professionally serviced once a year. This annual maintenance helps catch small issues before they become big (and expensive) problems, improves energy efficiency, and keeps your warranty valid. The last thing anyone wants is for your boiler to fail when you need it most!
A typical boiler installation can take 4-10 hours, however the time may vary depending on whether it is a brand new installation or if it is a replacement. Other factors that can affect the installation time include the type of boiler, the installation location, and whether additional complexities are involved.

Boilers and hot water heaters both heat water, but the difference is in how that heated water is used. A hot water heater, whether tanked or tankless, warms water for consumption. Think of uses like showers, cooking, or cleaning.
A boiler heats water in order to warm your home. Heated water is circulated (in some cases, as steam) throughout your home to your radiators and/or radiant floor systems. Because boilers do not use a blower to distribute hot air, the result is often more even and comfortable heating.
Boilers and furnaces both provide heat to Edmonton homes, but the difference is in how they provide that heat. A boiler heats water and circulates it (or steam, in some cases) throughout your house, warming your home through radiators or radiant floor systems.
A furnace heats air and that warmth throughout your home through ducting and vents.
A traditional, residential boiler provides heat to your home. Boilers heat water or generate steam, then they distribute it throughout your home via pipes to your radiators, baseboard heaters, or radiant floor systems. Unlike furnaces, which provide heat by blowing hot air, boilers provide more even heating without reducing your indoor humidity.
