Quick answer
Most Lochinvar boiler repairs in Coquitlam run $250 to $1,800, with most jobs landing between $400 and $900; the diagnostic visit is $90 to $150 and applies toward the repair. These are 2026 ballpark figures from public market data, not a quote — your CANRO technician confirms the actual cost once the unit has been inspected.

Repair pricing on a Lochinvar boiler in Coquitlam depends on which part failed, and the mix of older Maillardville homes with newer Burke Mountain construction means the fleet of boilers in service spans a wide age range.
| Repair scope | Typical cost |
|---|---|
| Diagnostic / service call | $90 – $150 (credited toward repair) |
| Most common boiler repairs | $400 – $900 |
| Complex or major repairs | up to $1,800 |
For most Coquitlam homes, one repair is the sensible move regardless of the boiler's age. That changes once an older Maillardville-area unit needs a heat-exchanger-level repair, at which point replacement is often the more practical option.
Ease of access in an older Austin Heights basement versus a newer Burke Mountain build, and how quickly the right part can be found, matter more to the final bill than the brand on the unit.
A CANRO technician checks the control board's fault history, tests gas pressure, and observes the startup flame before recommending a repair — a step that carries extra weight in Coquitlam given the range of boiler vintages still in service.
A common Coquitlam repair call involves an older Maillardville home where a single zone has stopped heating while the rest of the house works fine, usually pointing to a zone valve rather than the boiler's burner section.
With Coquitlam's boiler stock spanning several decades of housing construction, a routine annual service is one of the better ways to catch a developing issue before a mid-winter no-heat call — CANRO can confirm current pricing when you schedule.
Safety note
If you smell gas, hear an unusual hissing, or see soot near your boiler, get everyone out of the house first and call FortisBC's emergency line at 1-800-663-9911 before doing anything else. Any repair touching the gas valve, burner, or venting must be done by a Technical Safety BC licensed gas fitter; CANRO holds gas licence LGA0043870 and boiler licence LBP0046450.
Most repairs run $250 to $1,800, with the majority landing between $400 and $900. The service call itself is $90 to $150 and is credited toward the repair if you proceed.
This can point to low system pressure, an airlock, a faulty sensor, or a control fault. It needs a hands-on diagnostic rather than a guess, since several different faults produce the same symptom.
A single moderate repair almost always makes sense. It becomes a harder call once you are looking at a major component like a heat exchanger, or facing repeat visits in the same season.
Checking that the system pressure gauge is in the normal range and that nothing is blocking the outdoor vent termination is safe to look at yourself. Anything involving the gas valve, burner, or wiring should be left to a licensed technician.
Scheduling depends on the day and the technician's route, but no-heat calls are prioritized. Call the office directly for the current availability.
That depends on your unit's manufacturer warranty terms and whether the failed part is still covered. Bring your paperwork or model information and CANRO will check it against Lochinvar's current warranty terms for you.
Yes — routine annual service is far cheaper than an unplanned no-heat repair and often catches a developing fault early. Ask CANRO for current service pricing when you book.
