The Specialist Behind Seattle's Luxury Heating Systems

We deliver an unmatched level of knowledge and meticulous craftsmanship exclusively for boiler and radiant heating systems. Experience the difference that true specialization makes for your home’s comfort and long-term performance.

From Industry Expert to Your Trusted Partner

Before founding North Sound Boilers & Radiant, our founder, David Orton, spent years as a manufacturer representative and industry instructor. He was the expert that plumbers and contractors called when they couldn’t solve complex radiant heating and boiler problems.

He saw a critical gap in the market: general HVAC companies were installing high-end, luxury heating systems without the specialized knowledge to do it right or the commitment to maintain them. Homeowners investing in premium comfort were left with underperforming systems and no one to turn to for reliable service. North Sound Boilers & Radiant was founded to be the answer. We exist to provide the focused expertise and dedicated service that these sophisticated systems demand and that discerning homeowners in the Seattle area deserve.

Founded four years ago, North Sound Boilers & Radiant was built on a simple yet powerful mission: to deliver the highest standard of installation and service for boiler and radiant heating systems.

Outstanding experience from quote to completion. David installed all the equipment for our radiant floor heat and hot water in our garage. From thoroughly explaining his quote, to an absolutely beautiful install (who knew mechanical could be a work of art) we were very pleased with the result. Highly recommend.

100% recommend I had David out to do a check-up on our Navient tankless water heater and it was a great experience. He was friendly, professional, and super informative. He not only serviced it, but he also explained what he was looking for, why, and what each result meant. When you're looking for someone to work on water system in your house, this is the kind of service you want.

Solid experience all around working with North Sound Boilers & Radiant. We purchased a home 18 month ago and have had boiler issues off and on. I had another highly reputable heating company out twice to try and sort out the issues but they weren’t able to get to the root of the problem. I contacted North Sound on a Sunday evening during one of our cold spells this winter because our boulder went down and my family and I didn’t have heat. David came over that evening. Amazing service! He got us back up and running and after some trial and error David was able to pin point my problem and come up with a solution. All along communicating very well and being a honest guy. I would absolutely recommend giving them a call for your heating needs.

Our 12-year old Triangle Tube boiler died recently and we contacted David at North Sound. Within 7 days he sent us an estimate and came to our Whidbey Island home to do the work. The work took about 7 hours on day1 and 5 hours on day2. He used an IBC boiler and pretty much replaced ~90% of the old boiler stem (pumps, tanks, lines, etc.) Dave seems to have the competence you would need with such a relatively complex system. Definitely not amateur hour with your gas/propane line, ignition and high temperatures and your water line all converging into this system. Potential for a down wind disaster. I did not shop around as we had used David for prior maintenance and his reviews are excellent. It definitely is not inexpensive - more than my used car cost. David came prepared with all the tools and parts he needed. No breaks. On time, cleaned as he goes. We will definitely use him again if needed. See pics.

Our boiler stopped working meaning we had no heat or hot water. David came out the next day and diagnosed the problem. Ours is an old boiler and the part was not available locally. He ordered the part through expedited overnight delivery and installed it Saturday morning. I recommend North Sound Boilers without hesitation. David is a skilled technician but more importantly a man of integrity.
