Frequently Asked Boiler Questions
Why is my boiler not producing heat or hot water?
This could be due to low pressure, a faulty thermostat, or a broken valve. A professional inspection can pinpoint the issue.
What causes my boiler to make banging, whistling, or gurgling noises?
Strange noises often indicate trapped air, low water pressure, or limescale buildup in the system.
Why is my boiler losing pressure, and how can I fix it?
A pressure drop may be caused by a leak or a faulty pressure relief valve. A technician can diagnose and repair the problem.
What should I do if my boiler keeps turning off unexpectedly?
This could be due to low water pressure, a faulty thermostat, or a blocked condensate pipe. A professional can determine the cause.
Why is my boiler leaking water?
Leaks may come from a faulty internal component, like a pump seal or pressure valve. It’s important to get it checked immediately.
How can I tell if my boiler’s pilot light or ignition system is faulty?
If the pilot light keeps going out or the ignition fails, there may be a gas supply issue or a faulty thermocouple.
What does it mean if my radiators are not heating evenly?
This could mean air is trapped in the system, the radiators need bleeding, or there is a circulation problem.
How often should I service my boiler to prevent issues?
Boilers should be serviced at least once a year to ensure efficiency and safety.
Why does my boiler take longer than usual to heat up?
Slower heating times can indicate limescale buildup, circulation problems, or an aging system.
When should I consider replacing my boiler instead of repairing it?
If your boiler is over 15 years old, needs frequent repairs, or is no longer energy-efficient, replacement may be the best option.
