Heating Equipment Installation, Maintenance and Repair
A heating appliance – whether a gas boiler, pellet boiler or heat pump – is the entire home’s heat source. When it does not work properly, everyday comfort suffers and energy costs rise. In Latvia, gas boiler maintenance is legally mandatory at least once a year, and only a certified specialist may perform it. SIA Alpex has been providing heating equipment installation, annual maintenance and repair in Riga, Jurmala and the surrounding area since 1998 – professionally, with a warranty and with 24/7 emergency service support.

FAQ
How often should gas boiler maintenance be carried out?
At least once a year – as required by both manufacturer warranty terms and Cabinet of Ministers Regulation No. 238. We recommend scheduling maintenance in late summer or early autumn, before the heating season. Regular maintenance extends the boiler’s service life and can reduce fuel consumption by 5-15%.
What heating boiler should I choose for a private house?
The choice depends on the house size, insulation level and available energy infrastructure. If a gas connection is available, a gas boiler remains the most economical solution. Where gas is not available, pellet boilers and heat pumps are popular. Our specialists will help select the optimal option and calculate the required capacity.
Does Alpex also service private house heating systems?
Yes, we work with both apartment buildings and private houses. We offer individual maintenance contracts with regular visits and priority emergency service.
How quickly can Alpex arrive in an emergency?
Our 24/7 emergency service responds immediately – we typically arrive on site within 1-2 hours in Riga and Jurmala. During the heating season, we maintain an enhanced standby crew.
