Signs Your Boiler Needs Repair
Many older homes still have boilers as their heating system. While they’re known for being ultra-reliable, parts will eventually break or fail. Schedule boiler repair with Arctic Air if your boiler shows these signs of a problem:
- Odd noises: Your boiler should operate pretty quietly, so strange or loud noises, such as banging, clanging, or whistling sounds, are cause for alarm. These noises can point to issues with your boiler’s internal components like the pump, heat exchanger, or water circulation system.Â
- Leaks: Any visible leaks or puddles around your boiler can indicate an issue with the boiler’s seals or valves. You should also check for leaks around the pipes connected to your boiler.
- Fluctuating temperatures: You want your boiler to provide you with even heat throughout your home, so temperatures should not vary significantly from room to room. If they do, something in your boiler is malfunctioning.
- Lack of heat: Your boiler’s primary purpose is to heat your home, so a lack of heat is a clear sign that something is wrong. One of our technicians can inspect your boiler to determine the cause.
- Problems with startup: Difficulty starting or irregularities in the boiler’s ignition process can be indicative of issues with the ignition system, thermocouple, or pilot light.
- Unusually high heating bill: If your energy bills are consistently rising or you have noticed a sudden spike, then your boiler is no longer working efficiently. This could be due to a problem that is causing your boiler to work harder than normal to provide heat.
Common Reasons Boilers Break
It can be hard to identify the exact reason your boiler has failed. Some of the most common reasons boilers break down include:
- Old age: As boilers age, their components can deteriorate, leading to an increased likelihood of malfunctions. The wear and tear on various parts can make the boiler less efficient and more prone to breakdowns.
- Frozen pipes: In extremely cold weather, water inside the pipes leading to and from the boiler can freeze, causing the pipes to expand and potentially crack or burst.Â
- Damaged pump/pump seal: A boiler’s pump is responsible for circulating hot water throughout the heating system. Damage to the pump or its seals can result in reduced water circulation, leading to inadequate heating in your home and potential overheating of the boiler.
- Broken thermostat: A malfunctioning thermostat can cause the boiler to run excessively or not heat your home to the set temperature. It can also lead to issues with turning the boiler on or off at the appropriate times.
- Limescale buildup: Over time, limescale deposits can accumulate on the boiler’s heat exchanger, pipes, and valves. This reduces the efficiency of the boiler, leads to reduced heat output, and can cause overheating.
