If your home works on a boiler system, you are in good company because this type of heating system has been used for decades and continues to be popular today. Boilers use water to supply heat, either in the form of hot water or steam, through a radiator or baseboard heaters. If you want an efficient and effective heating system that provides consistent heat, professional maintenance, repair, and installation is a must.
Why You Need Boiler Repair
There are certain signs you should look out for that might be telling you that your boiler is in need of repair. Any time you notice the following unusual signs, call for help to have it repaired as soon as possible.
- Irregular heat distribution
- Gurgling and whistling sounds coming from inside the boiler
- Kettling, or limescale buildup inside the unit
You can help prevent issues with your heating system and reduce your risk of needing repairs by scheduling regular maintenance with a reputable heating company like Gene Johnson Plumbing & Heating. By having your unit inspected and tuned-up at least once a year, you will help keep it running efficiently and safely for longer. That means that you can go longer without having to replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
When to Replace Your Boiler
Boilers can last for up to 50 years before requiring replacement, but even the strongest boiler won’t last forever. Once it gets into its fifth decade, there are more energy efficient models available that will help save you money over the course of the year. The way technology keeps improving, you may want to consider a replacement long before your boilers’ 50th birthday. If it is older and requires regular repairs that are causing noticeable holes in your wallet, replacing it with a new one is usually the best option.
What About DIY Installation?
Since a boiler does last so long, and since it is responsible for providing comforting heat to your family, professional installation is the only real choice. If you try the DIY approach with a system that has so many different components, the chances you’ll later need professional correction are high, and it may end up costing you more than it would have originally.
Here are some of the benefits of using a professional installation service:
- SAFETY: A professional knows what they are doing, so they are less likely to be hurt during installation. You can also be sure that they are checking that your new boiler is operating safely before they leave
- GUIDENCE: When you use a professional installation service like Gene Johnson Plumbing & Heating, you get an expert’s perspective to make sure you are installing the best unit for your home.
- JOB WELL DONE: If you’re looking to get your new heater installed correctly and avid future repairs, then you’ll definitely want professional hands on it.

Gene Johnson is a great company, not only for their great prices but for their wonderful customer service! Our toilet was backed for almost a week while my wife and I tried to look for reasonable price but we settled on Gene Johnson. The plumber that came out to fix our issue, Armando, really brightened our day and did a fantastic job 💪! Thank you Armando and thank you Gene Johnson !

Carmen Kallis
Gene Johnson has done plumbing work for us in the past so we called them to come out and address what we thought was a smelly drain. Mark O. came yesterday and worked so hard to find the cause of the funky odor. He went above and beyond, exhausting all efforts, explaining everything to me along the way. In the end, nothing was found that would indicate there was an issue with our plumbing. Mark provided a few options without making me feel pressured to make an immediate decision. He was apologetic about not being able to find and fix the issue, but he really did make every effort and I was at least glad to know that our plumbing seems to be in good shape. Thank you, Mark!
Michael Cook

I had an emergency water heater leak and called for help. Joe came out and got the old water heater removed and new one installed. He was very helpful and informative, I appreciate him getting this resolved so quickly. I’ll definitely use Gene Johnson again!
Janet englund
We had a new installation of a tankless hot water heater by Steven Fritz today and it was an amazingly painless and actually interesting procedure! He was very thorough and explained things fully and carefully and got the job done in a single day. Really impressive!
Catherine Hawley
We discovered very early in the morning that our hot water tank was leaking. I called Gene Johnson plumbing. The scheduler was efficient and thorough. About 15 minutes after I ended that call I received one from Pavel along with an email that he was on his way. He assessed the situation and got right to work. We now have a very functional new hot water heater, thanks to Pavel and Nathan. They were very knowledgeable and professional. Would happily recommend their services to friends and family.
Leah Grimshaw
Jaren came out today to fix our bathtub, which was significantly clogged. This was my first-ever experience calling a plumber, and it was terrific from start to finish. The person I spoke with to book was friendly and efficient. They were able to get me in the same day, and I appreciated receiving a text letting us know when the plumber would arrive, along with a picture of who would be coming. I also appreciated Jaren calling us to let us know he was going to be early and to check with us if that was okay. Jaren was kind, patient, and knowledgeable. He did a fantastic job all around. He had excellent communication with us and our HOA, and this was the best experience I’ve ever had with someone coming into my home for repairs. I am so happy my bathtub is back to normal, and I will recommend Gene Johnson to any of my friends and family. Jaren honestly made a nightmare situation manageable and even pleasant! Thank you again so much!
