Common Boiler Problems

Here are some common problems you might encounter with hot water and steam boilers. While you may be able to fix a few of these issues yourself, you may need a specialist from Parker Pearce Service Experts for more complicated heat repair or a nasty boiler breakdown.

  • Thermostat isn’t accurate. Check that it’s switched to “on” and the correct settings. Otherwise, your thermostat may need to be replaced.
  • No heat. Failed parts, thermostat issues or insufficient water levels could be to blame.
  • Leaking or dripping. Often caused by a broken internal part, worn-out seal or rust.
  • Banging, whistling or gurgling sounds. Air in the system, low water pressure or imminent part failure can make these noises.
  • Rumbling or kettling noise. Restricted water flow due to lime and sludge accumulation in the heat exchanger. This causes water to overheat and boil.
  • Pilot light is out. Caused by a broken 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 replaced. Can also be caused by radiators that have been bled recently.
  • Condensate pipe is frozen. This pipe runs outside, so there is a risk 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 properly.

Skipping routine tune-ups can often lead to boiler breakdowns. Parker Pearce Service Experts can suggest a plan that could help you avoid pricey fixes—and may improve your equipment’s efficiency.
