Frequently asked questions

Who makes Super Hot boilers?

Super Hot is a BC brand, manufactured by Allied Engineering — a locally-made boiler many Metro Vancouver homes rely on.

Do you repair Super Hot boilers?

Yes — CANRO is experienced with Super Hot residential boilers for repair, maintenance, replacement and parts. We service the brand; we make no “authorized” claims.

Can you still get Super Hot parts?

Usually yes — being BC-made, Super Hot parts are often well-supported. For older models we source parts or a compatible alternative. See boiler parts.

Is it worth repairing an older Super Hot boiler?

If it’s reliable and parts are available, often yes. If it’s old or needs a major part, we’ll show you honest repair-vs-replace numbers.

My Super Hot boiler isn’t heating — what now?

Check the thermostat and that power and pressure are normal; if heat doesn’t return, call us. Don’t keep resetting a locked-out boiler. See no-heat repair.

Do Super Hot boilers qualify for rebates when replaced?

A high-efficiency replacement can qualify for FortisBC/CleanBC and the federal Greener Homes Loan. We confirm eligibility. See high-efficiency replacement.

Frequently asked questions

How often should a boiler be serviced?

Annual servicing is recommended for all residential boilers. CANRO's annual service includes combustion analysis, heat exchanger inspection, expansion tank pressure check, condensate trap cleaning, and a full safety check. Annual maintenance is also required to keep most manufacturer warranties valid.

How much does a new boiler cost in Vancouver?

A typical residential high-efficiency gas boiler in Metro Vancouver costs $7,500–$15,000 installed, depending on size, brand, and whether the system is heating only or a combi unit that also handles hot water. CANRO provides a free written quote with three options at different price points.

How long does a boiler last?

A well-maintained cast-iron boiler can last 25–30 years, a modern high-efficiency condensing boiler typically lasts 15–20 years, and a combi boiler 12–18 years. Annual servicing has the single biggest impact on lifespan.

My boiler is making a banging or kettling noise. Is that dangerous?

Kettling (a banging or whistling sound) is usually caused by limescale build-up on the heat exchanger and is a sign the system is overheating in localised spots. It will not always cause immediate failure but it shortens the life of the boiler and should be addressed within a few weeks.

Do you service Viessmann, IBC, Baxi, Laars, and Weil-McLain boilers?

Yes. CANRO is one of the few HVAC companies in the Lower Mainland with deep experience on European and high-end North American boilers including Viessmann, IBC, Baxi, Laars, Weil-McLain, NTI, Navien and Rinnai. We carry common parts in the truck.

Should I repair or replace my old boiler?

A useful rule: if the boiler is more than 15 years old and the repair cost is more than 50% of replacement, replacement is the better investment. CANRO will give you both a repair quote and a replacement quote and let you decide.

What HVAC services does CANRO offer in Metro Vancouver?

CANRO installs, services and repairs boilers, furnaces, heat pumps, hot water tanks, tankless water heaters, gas fireplaces and air conditioning across Metro Vancouver. We work on residential homes, townhouses and condos throughout the Lower Mainland.

How long has CANRO been in business?

CANRO has been serving the Greater Vancouver area since 1999. Our founder George is recognised by customers as one of the most experienced boiler and hydronic heating technicians in the Lower Mainland.

What areas do you serve?

We cover all of Metro Vancouver: Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Coquitlam, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, New Westminster, Delta, Langley, Port Moody, Port Coquitlam, White Rock, Pitt Meadows, and Maple Ridge.
