4 Potential Boiler Repairs
While boilers are durable systems that seldom require repair, boilers do need regular maintenance to prevent untimely malfunctions. The four following conditions signal that you should make a call for boiler service to keep a small issue from turning into a major problem.
- Kettling
Kettling is a term refers to noises. such as loud banging or rumbling. sounds coming from your heating system. The disruption comes from a surplus of minerals in the water supply that change the pressure levels inside the tank. Kettling often indicates a problem that needs repair. A kettling boiler is more likely to spring a leak or suffer from a dangerous buildup of pressure that may put your home at risk.
- Leaking and Dripping
A leaking or dripping boiler calls for immediate inspection by a qualified home heating professional. If a leak is coming directly from the boiler tank, it could indicate that the boiler has begun to corrode and will need to be replaced. On the other hand, a leak coming from a pressure relief valve or pump can be repaired.
- Pilot Problems
In the past, pilot lights had to stay lit all day and night to ensure that heat would be available whenever you needed it. Although some boilers still use this method, modern boilers use electronic ignition to heat water only when needed. If you notice that your pilot light does not ignite, you should call a home heating professional to diagnose and repair the problem.
- No Heat
If there is no heat coming from your boiler, the malfunction could be caused by many possible problems. The electronic igniter/pilot light may have failed, a pump could be broken, a safety switch may be stopping the boiler from staying on, or the thermostat could have failed. Call a home heating professional for diagnosis and repair; do not attempt to diagnose or fix the problems on your own.
