Common Boiler Problems: Ensure Efficient Heating with Proper Maintenance

Without regular maintenance, boilers can develop buildup due to their use of water. The heated water leaves behind minerals that can put pressure on pipes, eventually causing leaks. Additionally, the presence of air in the heating pipes can decrease the efficiency of your boiler. Pump failure is a frequent issue that requires boiler service, especially for boilers that are over 15 years old. This leads to reduced heat or even no heat at all in your home. Common boiler concerns include: Low water levels Broken thermostat Leaking boiler / pipes Malfunctioning pilot light
