Common Boiler Problems
Here are some common problems you might encounter with hot water and steam boilers. While you may be able to take care of a few of these issues yourself, you may need a professional from Jergens Heating & Air for more complex heat repair.
- Thermostat isn’t accurate: Check that it’s switched to “on” and the proper settings. Otherwise, your thermostat may need to be replaced.
- No heat: Worn-out parts, thermostat issues or insufficient water levels could be to blame.
- Leaking or dripping: Often caused by a malfunctioning internal part, worn-out seal or deterioration.
- Banging, whistling or gurgling sounds: Air in the system, low water pressure or imminent part failure can create these noises.
- Rumbling or kettling noise: Reduced water flow because of lime and sludge accumulation in the heat exchanger. This causes water to overheat and boil.
- Pilot light is out: Caused by a failing thermocouple, draft or built-up deposit. Natural gas could also be turned off.
- Pressure is too low: Water could be leaking, or a pressure valve may need to be swapped out. Can also be caused by radiators that have been bled recently.
- Condensate pipe is frozen: This pipe runs outside, so there is a danger of freezing. Thaw it by pouring warm water over it.
- Radiators aren’t getting hot: Caused by sludge or air buildup in the system.
- Boiler keeps turning itself off: Could be caused by a number of issues: low water pressure, thermostat issue, closed valve causing low water flow, air or pump not circulating water appropriately.
A lack of routine tune-ups can often cause boiler breakdowns. Jergens Heating & Air can help you choose a plan that could help you avoid pricey repairs—and may increase your equipment’s efficiency.
