High-Efficiency Heating Systems
Energy Efficient Heating System Repair, Service & Installation Boston MA
Now is the time for you to invest in a new high-efficiency heating system. Energy bills are going sky-high, resources are diminished, and the push to go “green” has brought a great deal of focus to home energy efficiency especially as it pertains to heating. As a local Boston plumbing company, we know homeowners struggle to spend less, use less, and pollute less without giving up the comfort of a warm home. If you plan on remaining in your home for the next few years, then you will want to save money, increase the value of your home, and upgrade from your old, inefficient heating to a new, high-efficiency heating system from Dun-RIGHT Plumbing and Heating.
High-Efficiency Gas Furnaces
Dun-RIGHT Plumbing & Heating offers top-of-the-line condensing furnaces with more than 90% efficiency, giving you incredible energy savings. These furnaces have an additional heat exchanger that takes the hot exhaust gases and extracts any available heat before it is sent outdoors. A high efficiency condensing furnace takes this extracted heat, condenses it into water, and drains it. The remaining cool gases are exhausted to the outdoors. By doing this, there is no hot air escaping from your home. In addition, the venting can be done with a PVC pipe rather than up a heat resistant flue in the roof. It also reduces the amount of pollutants released into the air.
High-Efficiency Boilers
We offer new energy efficient boilers for space heating and in certain applications, domestic water heating. There are two main types of boilers: hot water and steam boilers. Steam boiler systems comprise of pipes and steam radiators. Hot water boilers involve baseboard radiators, radiant heat systems, or coil systems to heat the air. Steam boilers are primarily used in restaurants, hotels, schools and institutional facilities. There is a major difference between regular boilers and condensing boilers. Condensing boilers are much more efficient. New energy-efficient boilers can be gas-fired, oil-fired, combination oil/gas-fired, electric-fired or pellet-fired. Natural gas boilers are the most common choice most homeowners prefer. High efficiency gas condensing boilers can provide energy cuts up to a third in heating bills, when compared to the older type boilers we find in many Boston homes. We recommend and install Weil McLain and Viessmann, both top-of-the-line gas firing boilers.
Sizing Your Heating System
When you prepare to upgrade your heating system, sizing your heating system is a service that Dun-RIGHT provides to all homeowners. You don't want a system that's too large, because you'll have too much waste, and a system that's to small can't provide proper comfort. Our qualified heating technicians will help you estimate the heat loss in your home by evaluating the insulation levels and the square footage of wall, roof and floor space exposed to the outside. Then, using the outdoor and desired indoor temperatures, they calculate the appropriate capacity for your new heating system.
