Common Boiler Problems We Solve

Boilers are incredibly reliable, but, like any home appliance, they can malfunction or fail. Depending on the type of system you have in your Chestertown, MD, home, you might encounter any number of issues.

Standard Cast-Iron Boilers

These traditional units are known for their durability, but age eventually catches up with them. Common red flags include:

• Kettling: If your boiler emits bubbling or rumbling sounds, lime or sediment likely has built up on the heat exchanger.
• Pump Problems: If the boiler is hot but your radiators are cold, the pump that moves the water is likely faulty.
• Pilot Light: Older gas boilers often suffer from standing pilot lights that won't stay lit.

High-Efficiency Condensing Boilers

The complex sensors and electronics in modern units require specialized repair knowledge for these issues:

• Blocked Condensate Drains: These boilers produce acidic water as they run. If the drain line clogs or freezes, the system will shut down for safety.
• Sensor Failures: Flame sensors or outdoor reset sensors can drift out of calibration, leading to inefficient heating.
• Ignition Problems: High-efficiency units use sophisticated ignition sequences that dirty burners or gas pressure fluctuations can disrupt.
