Boilers in Orem, UT
Hydronic Heating Experts Serving Utah County
Boiler systems deliver warmth differently than forced-air furnaces, using hot water or steam radiating through baseboards, radiators, or in-floor tubing. This approach creates steady, even heat without blowing air around your home. When your boiler runs correctly, you get consistent comfort and exceptional longevity. When something goes wrong, you need someone who actually understands hydronic systems.
Authority Heating & Cooling has worked with boiler heating since 2006. We handle the full spectrum: repairs when components fail, maintenance that prevents problems, and installations when it's time to upgrade.
Whether you're running a traditional radiator system or a modern radiant floor heating system, we understand how these systems operate and what keeps them running efficiently.

Signs Your Boiler Needs Professional Attention
Boilers are known for their durability, but still require professional service occasionally. Addressing issues early can prevent a complete loss of heat and help you avoid more expensive repairs.
Call for boiler service if you notice:
- You see water leaking or dripping from the unit.
- The radiators are not heating up or have cold spots.
- You hear unusual noises like banging, gurgling, or whistling (a sound known as "kettling").
- The pilot light on an older model keeps going out.
- Your home isn't getting warm enough, even when the boiler is running.
- The system's pressure is too low or too high.
If you notice any changes in your boiler's performance, whether or not we have listed them above, it’s best to have it inspected. Call us and we will take a look as soon as possible!
Radiant Heat vs. Forced Air: The Boiler Advantage
Boilers work fundamentally differently from furnaces.
Forced-air systems heat air and blow it through ducts. Boilers heat water or create steam, then circulate it through pipes to radiators, baseboards, or floor tubing. Heat radiates from these surfaces, warming objects and people directly rather than heating air.
This distinction matters for comfort and air quality. Radiant heat distributes more evenly throughout rooms without creating hot and cold zones. Nothing's blowing air around, so dust, pollen, and allergens stay settled instead of constantly circulating. Families dealing with allergies or respiratory sensitivity often notice significant improvement after switching from forced air to radiant heating.
Maintaining Your Boiler for Longevity
Boilers routinely last 20-25 years with proper attention, outliving most furnaces by nearly a decade. Annual professional maintenance makes this longevity possible. During service visits, technicians inspect the system for leaks, verify pressure levels stay within operating range, and clean components that accumulate sediment or scale.
Hot water systems require checking expansion tanks and circulator pumps to confirm they're functioning correctly. Steam boilers need water level testing and flushing to remove sediment buildup that interferes with heat transfer.
This preventative work stops small issues before they become expensive failures and keeps efficiency high throughout the system's lifespan.
