Boiler buildup can occur from prolonged water usage without proper maintenance, leading to mineral deposits that stress pipes and potentially cause leaks. Additionally, air trapped in heating pipes can reduce boiler efficiency.
Pump failure is another common issue, particularly in boilers over 15 years old, resulting in inadequate heat distribution or no heat at all in your household. Regular maintenance and prompt repairs are essential to keep your boiler running smoothly and efficiently.
Typical issues for boilers include:
- Insufficient water levels
- Faulty thermostat
- Boiler or pipe leaks
- Pilot light malfunctions
