In general, we don\u2019t recommend that you attempt to troubleshoot a boiler on your own, and certainly don\u2019t believe the average homeowner should attempt to make repairs to a hot water boiler. This could be dangerous, and time-consuming when you don\u2019t know what to look for. Technicians with the proper training can come to your home and make a quick assessment with all the tools they need to do so.<\/p>\n
Still, it\u2019s useful to know what can <\/em>go wrong. That way, you know why it\u2019s so important to take care of issues quickly and have a better idea of what to expect.<\/p>\n There are a couple of things you should check before you call in a technician. If it doesn\u2019t appear that your boiler is powering on at all, it\u2019s always worth it to check the circuit breaker. Yes, even a gas system requires electric power. The pumps and motors won\u2019t operate without it! You can also check to make sure that the gas valve is open.<\/p>\n It\u2019s also worth checking that the thermostat is powered on and set to the proper temperature. One final thing to look at is whether the boiler is leaking water. If this is the case, act quickly to shut off the water and call in a technician.<\/p>\n If it\u2019s not an issue with the thermostat or the circuit breaker box, there are many things that could be the source of a problem when a boiler will not heat.<\/p>\n Then, there\u2019s the possibility that a boiler is not working properly. You may notice low heat or that heat is imbalanced from room to room. In this case, there are many possible components responsible, and this is by no means an exhaustive list.<\/p>\n Contact Max Sr & Paul Schoenwalder Plumbing, Heating and Air Conditioning, A Corp.<\/a> and learn more about what could go wrong.
