Why Quality Boiler Installation Matters – Centennial, CO 80015
When it comes to heating your home, choosing the right plumber can mean the difference between a reliable system that lasts for decades and costly repairs that drain your wallet.
Recently, in Centennial, CO 80015, our team at Mr. Perfect Plumbing was called in to replace a failed combi boiler. The homeowner’s original system was installed about nine years ago by another company — and unfortunately, the installation was riddled with serious mistakes that ended up costing the homeowner thousands over time.
The Original Problem: Poor Installation Choices
The original installer made critical errors:
Installed two auto feed water supplies — one at the point of no pressure change and another at a point of negative pressure — creating an overpressure scenario.
This caused internal leaks in the system.
No condensation neutralizer was installed, which led to corrosion in the cast iron drain pipe. Over time, this ate away at the concrete floor and required an expensive underground drain repair.
The homeowner was never told that the boiler needed annual maintenance to protect their investment.
In the end, these mistakes cost the homeowner:
$15,000 for the first improperly installed boiler
$7,000 for underground sewer repair
Another $9,000 for a new boiler installation to fix the problems the first plumber caused
Our Solution: Professional Navien Boiler Replacement
We shut down and drained both the boiler and domestic water sides, removed the failing unit, and installed a brand-new Navien high-efficiency boiler. All copper connections were properly soldered, the pump and thermostat wiring were connected, and we purged every zone to ensure flawless operation.
This installation came with:
1-year parts and labor warranty (transferable once to a new home buyer)
Correct piping and pressure configuration to protect the system long-term
A condensate neutralizer to prevent corrosion damage
Clear homeowner education on the importance of annual boiler maintenance
The Takeaway for Homeowners
Hiring the cheapest plumber can be the most expensive choice you ever make. High-quality plumbing and heating work isn’t just about getting the system running — it’s about making sure it runs safely and efficiently for decades.
