Commercial boilers have been around for a very long time. In fact, they used to be the predominant commercial heating systems in the country. That all changed with the introduction of the packaged system, which is used most often today. However, commercial boilers still possess all the advantages that made them so popular in days past. If you’re curious about commercial boiler systems and what makes them different than packaged forced–air systems, read on for a brief explanation. If you have any questions, contact Green Planet Solutions Corp today.
Green Planet Solutions Corp provides commercial boilers in Wilkes–Barre, PA and the surrounding areas.
Why Choose a Commercial Boiler System
Why should you invest in a commercial boiler system over a more common choice? First, you’ll need to understand how a commercial boiler system operates. Boilers are designed to heat a building by distributing hot water through a network of pipes installed in each room. These pipes tend to end in terminal devices, like radiators or baseboard heaters. As the water flows through these points, it radiates heat through them and out into the rooms.
There are many advantages to this kind of system. For one, boiler systems are much more energy–efficient than their forced–air counterparts. The US Department of Energy has estimated that forced air systems lose as much as 30% of their output to leaks in the ductwork. That leads to substantially higher operating costs, especially for larger commercial HVAC systems. Boilers, on the other hand, don’t use ducts, and therefore deliver almost all of their output exactly where it needs to go.
Another thing to consider is the improvements to air quality. Forced–air systems circulate dust, pollen, germs, and other pollutants around the office during operation. This makes people sick, provokes allergy attacks, and generally lowers quality of life. Boiler systems don’t use air as a medium to transport heat, which means they don’t lower the indoor air quality during use.

Installing a commercial boiler is quite a feat. The boiler itself is a massive machine, requiring heavy moving equipment and specialized training to for proper installation. Once that is done, the entire building needs to be outfitted with the pipe network that the boiler will use. It’s a big job, and it’s one that you’re really going to want done right the first time.
