Heat Without the Hustle. Radiance Without the Rattle.

A boiler that is 20 years old, rusting, or short-cycling is usually costing you more in gas and repairs than a new one would. Boiler installation is the fix, and doing it right matters more than the brand on the box. We size the unit to your actual home and radiant or baseboard load instead of guessing, because an oversized boiler wastes fuel and wears out early. We walk you through the options and the real numbers first, then install it clean and code-correct. Utah hard water is rough on boilers, so we set yours up to last.

Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm. Emergency service runs 24/7. We come inside a 3-hour appointment window.

Radiant Heat, Designed for Utah Winters

Boiler systems aren’t just about heat. They’re about balance. No drafts. No vents. Just clean, consistent warmth delivered through the architecture of your home.

Rare Breed Plumbing, Heating, and Air designs high-efficiency condensing and cast-iron boiler systems built for Utah’s climate, altitude, and zoning complexity. From radiant floors and baseboard heat to indirect water tanks and snow melt, we engineer hydronic systems that feel effortless, and perform for decades. Every pump, zone, and pressure loop is mapped with intention. Because a boiler that is sized or piped wrong costs you every winter after. Building or remodeling? Start with a hydronic design consult before anything gets poured.

Every job is measured against our A STEPP standards, backed by a 3-hour appointment window and a 100% satisfaction guarantee. The office is open Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm, and emergency service runs 24/7. Call (385) 449-0144 or book online.

Uneven Heating or Cold Floors?

Connon P.

Thomas came out and was thoughtful and professional in his work. He explained all our options and gave us the best service we could have expected.

Brett F.

Thomas was great, in a quick manner and walked all steps and repaired leak in bathroom and brought up quick and easy fixed to prevent similar problems in the future

Joseph W.

Colson Abel saved us this weekend! Yesterday our water heater decided to crack and start flooding our basement. Colson stopped the flood last night and this morning installed a new water heater. Of the many plumbers we’ve seen over the years, Colson is the best. Easy going, great knowledge and skills. Thanks Colson and Rare Breed Plumbing!

Court provided 24/7 emergency repair for us in Kearns, UT. Our main water shut off to the house started to leak profusely (6 gallons of water in 2 hours) in the off position around 8pm. We called around trying to find a plumber who could help us same night. Court (Rare Breed Plumbing) was the only plumber we called (out of 4) who was willing to come take a look at our issue same night. By 10:30pm he had the leak stopped and scheduled us for an appointment to fix the rest of the problem the very next day. Major crisis averted.

MaKea K.

I had my water main water shut off valve start leaking at 8pm. Not a good situation! Called around to a bunch of places and no one could help. I was able to call and get in direct contact with Court and he came out 30 mins later and stopped the leak so it could be properly fixed the next day! A+ service! I’d definitely trust him with any other issues in the future!

Tim H.

Lost heat in my house all of a sudden. The temperature outside was too cold for little kids to be without heat. Court showed up to my house and did everything in his power to get our heat back on as soon as he possibly could. Court was professional in his appearance, he was very kind and very knowledgeable. He was considerate to my house, my kids, and my dogs. I would highly recommend Rare Breed for any of your HVAC needs!

Dev R.

Court and Chandler literally saved our bacon, coming immediately out to my business (a birthing center) and not only fixing a clog in the main line of the building plumbing but solving a riddle that no other plumbers could figure out in nearly 10years! They had it all fixed within an hour!
These guys are saints! As well as honest and far, not to mention the fact that they just know their stuff.
We would have been so stranded without calling them. Thanks!
