Boiler Repair Burnaby
Boiler Repair in Burnaby — Fast, Local Service from ROMA Heating & Cooling
When a boiler fails in Burnaby, you need a heating company that can get to you quickly and fix it right the first time. ROMA Heating & Cooling is headquartered in Burnaby at 2800 Douglas Rd — just off Lougheed Highway near Brentwood — so we are genuinely local to the neighbourhoods we serve. That proximity means faster arrival on no-heat calls than companies dispatching from across the Lower Mainland. We have repaired residential and commercial boilers across Burnaby since 1999, and our gas-licensed (TSBC) technicians work on every major brand and boiler type found in local homes.
If your boiler is leaking, short-cycling, showing an error code, or simply not heating, call (604) 337-5359 or email info@romaheating.ca for same-day boiler repair in Burnaby.
Boiler Repair Across Burnaby’s Neighbourhoods
Burnaby’s housing is a mix of older single-family homes, hillside properties, and a fast-growing stock of condos and townhomes — and each comes with its own boiler challenges:
- Burnaby Heights, Capitol Hill & Willingdon Heights: Post-war homes here often run older cast-iron and hydronic boilers, plus oil-to-gas conversions. We service aging Weil-McLain, Laars and IBC units and advise on high-efficiency replacements when parts are no longer cost-effective.
- Metrotown & Brentwood: High-rise condos and newer townhomes typically use wall-mounted combi boilers (Navien, Viessmann, Rinnai, Bosch). We handle error-code faults, pressure loss, and no-hot-water calls common to these compact systems.
- Edmonds & Highgate: A blend of strata townhouse complexes and detached homes — we provide both individual unit repairs and strata-managed boiler maintenance contracts.
- Deer Lake, Buckingham & Forest Glen: Larger detached homes with multi-zone hydronic heating that need precise diagnostics on circulators, zone valves, and controls.
- Montecito, Government Road & Lake City: Established homes near Burnaby Mountain, many with original boilers approaching end of life and prime candidates for rebate-eligible upgrades.
- SFU / Burnaby Mountain: Higher elevation means colder temperatures and more snow, which puts extra strain on boilers and exposes venting to freeze-ups — a frequent cause of pressure-switch and combustion faults.
Types of Boilers We Repair in Burnaby Homes
Knowing your boiler type helps us arrive with the right parts. Across Burnaby we service:
- Combi boilers — provide heat and on-demand hot water from one wall-mounted unit; the most common system in Metrotown and Brentwood condos and newer townhomes.
- System (sealed) boilers — paired with a hot-water cylinder, common in larger detached homes in Deer Lake and Government Road.
- Conventional / atmospheric boilers — older open-vented units still found in heritage homes in Burnaby Heights and Capitol Hill.
- Hydronic baseboard and in-floor radiant systems — we diagnose circulation, zoning and control problems across both.
Signs Your Burnaby Boiler Needs Repair
Catching a boiler fault early almost always costs less than waiting for a mid-winter breakdown. Call us if you notice:
- No heat or no hot water, or heat that comes and goes
- An error or fault code on the display
- Water pooling or dripping around the unit
- Pressure that keeps dropping below 1 bar (you’re constantly re-pressurizing)
- Banging, gurgling or “kettling” noises
- Radiators or floors slow to warm, or warm at the top and cold at the bottom
- A persistent gas or burning smell — turn the boiler off and call immediately
- Rising gas bills with no change in usage
Common Boiler Problems We Fix — and What Causes Them
| Symptom | Likely Causes | What We Do |
|---|---|---|
| No heat / no hot water | Failed igniter, faulty gas valve, airlock, control fault | Diagnose ignition & gas train, test controls, restore safe operation |
| Boiler leaking water | Corroded fittings, failed pump seal, expansion tank or PRV | Locate the leak, replace the failed component, re-pressurize |
| Pressure keeps dropping | System leak, waterlogged expansion tank, failing fill valve | Pressure-test, recharge or replace the expansion tank |
| Error / fault code | Sensor, fan, flame or combustion fault | Read the code, find the root cause, repair with OEM parts |
| Kettling / banging noise | Heat-exchanger scale, poor circulation, trapped air | Flush/descale, bleed the system, check the pump |
| Short cycling | Oversized output, thermostat or sensor fault, low flow | Diagnose controls and flow, correct the cycling cause |
Our Boiler Repair Process
We keep boiler repair transparent so you always know what you’re paying for:
- Diagnosis — we read any fault codes and test the gas train, electrical components, sensors, pump and pressure.
- Upfront quote — you approve the price before we begin; no surprise charges.
- Repair — we complete most repairs the same visit using genuine OEM parts carried on the truck.
- Safety check — we verify combustion, pressure and safe operation before we leave.
Emergency Boiler Repair in Burnaby
Boilers fail at the worst time — during a Lower Mainland cold snap when demand peaks. Because we’re based in Burnaby, we prioritize local no-heat calls and offer same-day and after-hours emergency boiler repair. If you have no heat with young children, elderly residents, or freezing temperatures, call (604) 337-5359 and we’ll get a technician to you as fast as possible.
Boiler Brands We Service in Burnaby
Our technicians are experienced across the brands installed throughout Burnaby, including Navien, Viessmann, Rinnai, Bosch, IBC, Weil-McLain, Laars, NTI, Super Hot, Lochinvar, Ferroli, Buderus and Bradford White. We stock common parts and source OEM components quickly so most repairs are completed in a single visit.
Boiler Repair vs Replacement — and FortisBC Rebates for Burnaby Homeowners
A repair is usually the right call for a boiler under 12–15 years old. But if your unit is older and needs a major part like a heat exchanger, replacing it with a high-efficiency condensing model often makes better financial sense — and can qualify for FortisBC and CleanBC rebates available to Burnaby residents. We’ll give you an honest repair-versus-replace comparison based on the age, condition and repair cost of your specific boiler, and we handle the rebate paperwork on qualifying installs.
Commercial & Strata Boiler Repair in Burnaby
Beyond homes, we maintain and repair boilers for Burnaby businesses, multi-unit residential buildings, and strata-managed complexes around Metrotown, Brentwood and Edmonds. We offer scheduled maintenance agreements that keep commercial and strata heating systems compliant, efficient, and less likely to fail during peak demand.
Boiler Maintenance to Prevent Breakdowns
Most emergency boiler calls trace back to skipped maintenance. An annual service — combustion check, pressure test, descale, and component inspection — extends boiler life, protects efficiency, and keeps manufacturer warranties valid. Ask us about a yearly maintenance plan for your Burnaby home or building.

Boiler Repair Burnaby — Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can you reach me in Burnaby?
Because our shop is in Burnaby (2800 Douglas Rd), we can usually reach Burnaby addresses faster than companies travelling from other municipalities, and we offer same-day service on no-heat calls.
My combi boiler shows an error code — can you fix it?
Yes. We diagnose and repair error codes on Navien, Viessmann, Rinnai, Bosch, IBC and other combi boilers common in Metrotown and Brentwood condos, and carry many parts on the truck.
Should I repair or replace my old Burnaby boiler?
If your boiler is over 15 years old and needs a major part, a high-efficiency replacement may qualify for FortisBC/CleanBC rebates and pay back in lower gas bills. We give you an honest comparison before you decide.
Do you service strata and townhouse complexes in Burnaby?
Yes — we provide both individual unit repairs and scheduled boiler maintenance for strata-managed properties in Edmonds, Highgate and across Burnaby.
My boiler is leaking — is that an emergency?
A small drip should be looked at soon; active leaking or pressure loss should be addressed right away to prevent damage. Turn off the boiler and call us at (604) 337-5359.
What does it cost to repair a boiler in Burnaby?
It depends on the fault — a sensor or thermocouple is inexpensive, while a pump, gas valve or heat exchanger costs more. We always provide an upfront quote after diagnosis, before any work begins.
How often should a boiler be serviced?
Once a year. Annual maintenance keeps the boiler efficient and safe, prevents most breakdowns, and is often required to keep the manufacturer’s warranty valid.
