Boiler Basics

Boilers are a type of heating system that use water or steam to distribute heat throughout a building. The basic components of a boiler include a fuel source, a heat exchanger, a pump or circulator, and controls.

The fuel source, which can be natural gas, propane, or electricity, is used to heat water or produce steam in the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is a device that transfers heat from the fuel source to the water or steam. The heated water or steam then circulates through pipes to radiators or other heat emitters in the building.

A pump or circulator is used to circulate the heated water or steam through the system. Controls, such as thermostats, pressure gauges, and safety valves, are used to regulate the temperature and pressure of the system and ensure safe and efficient operation.

The lifespan of a boiler can vary depending on the type, usage, and maintenance. On average, a boiler can last between 15-20 years. However, it is important to have your boiler inspected every year by a licensed professional to determine its condition and when replacement may be necessary.

Boiler Vents

Boilers and Chimneys Power Vent & Direct Vent Boilers

Boilers that use a chimney to vent exhaust gasses are known as chimney vented boilers. These types of boilers require a chimney to be installed in the home, and they are typically less efficient than other types of boilers.

Power vent and direct vent boilers are alternatives to chimney vented boilers. Power vent boilers use a fan to vent exhaust gasses, while direct vent boilers vent through a wall or roof. Neither would vent through your chimney as a result. These types of boilers are more efficient than chimney vented boilers and are typically easier to install.

It’s important to have your boiler inspected regularly by our skilled, experienced Lindemann technicians to determine its condition and when replacement may be necessary. Common issues that indicate a replacement is needed include age, frequent breakdowns and repairs, energy efficiency, noise, and leaks.

Power vent and direct vent boilers are alternatives to chimney vented boilers that can be set up to vent alternatively.
