Our Combi System Solutions in Burnaby

Every job is handled by TSBC-licensed technicians using quality materials and equipment.

Space-Saving Design

Combi boilers are known for their compact design, eliminating the need for a separate hot water cylinder or storage tank — ideal for Coquitlam condos, townhomes, and homes with limited mechanical room space.

Energy Efficiency

Combi boilers only heat water when you need it — no energy wasted on standby heating. Modern condensing combi units operate at 90–95%+ efficiency, meaningfully lowering your FortisBC gas bills.

On-Demand Hot Water

With a combi boiler, hot water is delivered instantly whenever you need it. Say goodbye to waiting for a tank to reheat — perfect for busy households.

The energy efficiency of combi boilers translates to long-term cost savings on utility bills. They are built to last, require minimal maintenance, and have a strong track record of reliability.

Combi Boiler Installation

Our team of certified technicians specializes in combi boiler installation, maintenance, and repair — whether you're upgrading your existing heating system or installing a new combi boiler.

Common Issues in Burnaby

Aging North Burnaby Pipe Systems

Pre-war bungalows in North Burnaby often have galvanized water lines causing low pressure and rust-coloured water. Copper or PEX repipe restores clean, full-pressure water delivery and eliminates the corrosion problem.

Highrise & Strata Plumbing

Metrotown and Brentwood area highrise condos require licensed plumbers familiar with strata building systems — from suite repairs to risers, pressure-balancing valves, and common-area plumbing.

Multi-Family Boiler Maintenance

Burnaby's aging mid-rise rental buildings frequently rely on central boiler systems for heat and hot water. We service, repair, and replace commercial boilers for building managers throughout Burnaby.

Common Questions About Combi System in Burnaby

What is a combi boiler system and is it right for my Coquitlam home?

A combi (combination) boiler provides both radiant or hydronic space heating and on-demand domestic hot water from one compact unit. It's ideal for Coquitlam condos, townhomes, or smaller homes with limited mechanical room space. It's not suitable for homes with forced-air (duct) heating — it works with hydronic radiators or in-floor heat.

How much does a combi boiler cost to install in Coquitlam?

Combi boiler installation in Coquitlam typically ranges from $5,000–$12,000 depending on the brand, existing system complexity, and whether hydronic piping changes are needed. We provide written quotes after assessing your home.

Do combi boilers provide enough hot water for a family in Coquitlam?

Most modern combi boilers provide ample hot water for 2–4 person households. For larger families with high simultaneous demand (multiple showers running), we can specify a combi unit with a small internal buffer tank, or recommend a separate high-efficiency boiler + tankless system instead.
