How Do Boilers Work?

boiler repair and maintenanceBoilers heat your facility by producing hot water or steam which is distributed throughout the building via baseboard radiators or heating coils. Once the steam cools, it returns to water form and is transported through the boiler’s pipe system and returned to the heating tank so the process can be repeated. This provides a warm, comfortable environment even on the coldest winter days.

Boilers provide a variety of benefits compared with furnaces, including:

  • Lower energy consumption
  • Lower heating bills
  • Quieter operation
  • Consistent and reliable heating
  • Reduced carbon footprint

Signs You Need Boiler Repair Services

signs you need boiler repair servicesIt’s important to address boiler issues as soon as they arise. These problems can get worse quickly, and this can cause serious complications at your facility on a cold winter day.

The following issues may indicate that you need boiler repair services:

  • Abnormal sounds – Boilers are typically very quiet. If you notice clanging, gurgling or banging sounds, it may be a sign that debris has built up in the heat exchanger. Boiler repair is typically necessary to fix the problem.
  • Water leaks – Anytime you experience a water leak in your boiler, it should be a cause for concern. These leaks can quickly spread throughout your walls and floor, resulting in serious water damage. Water leaks may be a sign that you have a bad pipe connection, but it can also be due to a more complex issue.
  • Inconsistent heating – If you find that your heat doesn’t always work or that you have cold spots in your house, it’s a sign that your boiler needs repairs. This problem can be due to a variety of issues, including a broken thermostat, damaged airlock or another part that malfunctions.
  • The boiler shuts off frequently – Boilers typically shut down to avoid overheating. There are a variety of potential causes of this problem, and it’s critical to have the issue diagnosed by a boiler repair professional to ensure it is resolved correctly.
  • Higher energy bills – Paying attention to your monthly energy bills is an effective way to spot an issue with your boiler. While you should expect your boiler to work harder during the winter, this should result in a consistent monthly increase in your energy bills all winter long. If you start noticing a spike in your energy bill from one month to the next, it may be an indication of reduced efficiency. In some instances, simple boiler maintenance may solve the problem, but other times more extensive repairs may be required.
  • Unusual smells – If you notice unusual odors resembling rotten eggs, it may be a sign that your boiler has a gas leak. If you detect a smell like this, it’s important to call our boiler repair team at once.

boiler installationWith proper maintenance, most boilers can last at least 15 years, if not longer. However, as with any appliance, your boiler will eventually wear out and need to be replaced. At Major, we are Denver’s leading boiler replacement professionals. Our team will discuss your options with you in detail to ensure you choose the right model for your facility’s needs. Then our team will handle every aspect of the boiler installation process to ensure it is performed correctly.

Common signs that it may be time to replace your boiler include:

  • Age – If you’ve had your boiler for over 15 years, it may be time for a new one, even if it is still working. Older boilers may deliver less effective and reliable heating. In addition, modern boiler models provide more energy-efficient solutions. Therefore, upgrading an old model before it dies may provide important benefits.
  • Frequent repairs – If your boiler requires regular repairs beyond the standard boiler maintenance tasks, you may find it’s more cost-effective to replace it.
  • Uneven heating – If some rooms run hot while others are always too cold, it’s typically a sign that your boiler is failing and ready to be replaced.
  • Rising energy bills – Sometimes, rising energy bills are a sign of a problem that can be repaired. Other times, it’s a sign that your boiler is becoming less efficient, and a replacement may be the best solution.
