  • Runs on electricity, oil, or natural gas
  • The water is heated and steam is pumped through radiators to heat the home

5 Signs Your Boiler Needs Repairs

Keeping an eye on your boiler and knowing when it needs to be repaired can help save you money. Our team provides reliable boiler repair services in areas such as Newark, Haverstraw, Jersey City, Nyack, Paterson, and Trenton. Give our technicians a call at (732) 638-4317 to receive support with a defective boiler. To help you diagnose issues with your system, we have created a list of common signs it’s time to hire a professional to fix your boiler.

1. Leaking Water

If water is leaking or there are puddles near the boiler, it’s time to call a technician. Leaks can cause damage to the home and also cause mold to grow. Leaks indicate that the boiler is using more energy than it’s supposed to. There is also an increased risk of the boiler bursting.

2. Strange Smells

Gas leaks pose a health hazard to you and your family. A metallic or an egg-like smell near the boiler could be a gas leak. You should have a technician come out to inspect or repair your boiler to eliminate the issue.

3. Not Enough Heat

When it’s chilly outside, it can be frustrating that your boiler is not producing enough heat. This could be an issue with the heat delivery from either short-circuiting of the thermostat or a buildup in the tank. If you have tried adjusting the settings on the thermostat and it’s still not producing enough heat, call a trusted technician.

4. Heating Delays

When the boiler is turned on, it should heat up quickly. If it’s taking an extensive amount of time to heat there could be a circulation problem. A technician will be able to accurately diagnose the problem and provide a solution.

5. Turning On and Off

A boiler that turns on and off without warning is not functioning correctly. The problem could be with the power supply. Getting the problem properly inspected by a licensed technician can help solve the problem.
