When the Heat Fails, Rare Breed Shows Up with Clarity

No heat on a January night, a leaking boiler, or water spreading across the mechanical room floor is not something that waits until Monday, and in a Utah winter a cold house can mean frozen pipes on top of everything. Our emergency team answers and shows up, day or night, 24/7. We find the source fast, get your heat and hot water running, and give you a clear quote before we start the repair. A service call is $49, waived when you have us do the work, and a diagnostic is $189 during business hours or $199 after hours. We check the whole system so a rushed fix does not turn into a second call. When it cannot wait, we are on our way.

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

The Moment the System Fails Is the Moment the Right Partner Matters Most

Boilers don’t fail like forced-air systems. When something goes wrong, it’s often silent until it’s serious. Cold floors. Locked-out zones. Loss of pressure. Or worse: steam, flooding, or unsafe combustion.

Rare Breed Plumbing, Heating, and Air is built for these moments. We respond fast, isolate the issue clearly, and protect what matters. From hydronic leaks to ignitor failures, zone controller faults to pressure loss. We don’t restart until it’s safe, stable, and truly fixed.

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.

No Heat in the Middle of the Night?

We respond 24/7, and we don’t just reset. We diagnose pressure, ignition, zone flow, and logic faults with expert-level tools and complete clarity.

Boiler Locked Out or Throwing Error Codes?

Boiler Locked Out or Throwing Error Codes?

We interpret codes, trace failures to the board, valve, or zone, and get you answers before we ever quote a repair.

Hearing Knocking, Banging, or Gurgling?

Hearing Knocking, Banging, or Gurgling?

That’s not just noise. It’s turbulence, and a sign of trapped air, expansion failure, or pressure imbalance. We fix the source, not the sound.

Visible Leaks or Steam?

Visible Leaks or Steam?

Hydronic leaks cause cascading issues. We isolate the breach, protect downstream components, and prevent further system degradation, fast.

Smelling Gas or Carbon Odors?

Smelling Gas or Carbon Odors?

We shut down the system, test for CO, and verify venting safety before anything restarts. No risks. No assumptions.

Not Sure If It’s an Emergency?

Not Sure If It’s an Emergency?

We’ll help you decide, calmly, clearly, and without pressure. If it can wait, we’ll tell you. If it can’t, we’ll be on the way.

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.

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!

Wasatch M.

Service expert Kyler Rupp, was a great help. He answered all my questions and gave me a few tips on how to keep the pipes from my sinks well kept. Over all good costumer service!
