Have you always wondered exactly how a hot water or steam boiler operates? How about what you should consider when deciding to repair or replace your heat system?

Continue reading for answers to these questions and more.

How Does It Work?

Hot water and steam boiler systems may seem simpler in many ways than a forced air heating unit, but the truth is that they are complex with many valves, controls, gauges and moving parts.

Because of this, just like any air conditioning or heating system, it’s important to schedule annual preventative maintenance and to know what to watch for with your system so you will know when to enlist professional help.

New homes tend to use forced air systems more often than not and so if you have a boiler in your home, chances are that it is an older system that requires annual maintenace.

Unless you have significant experience and training in the heating industry, you’ll want to have a professional in your corner when addressing your boiler repair needs.

Tips For Boiler Repair

Here are some tips on what to watch for to know if you need a boiler repair.

1. Maryland has 4 times as many heating days a year than cooling days so this should be a higher priority than even your cooling system.
2. Know how the piping moves through your home between the boiler and radiators and check periodically for leaks or bulges in the piping.
3. Know what the recommended pressure range is for your boiler and circulation system and check regularly to be sure that the system is operating in that range.
4. If it’s too high or too low, you must know how to adjust the system to bring it back in the acceptable range.
5. If this happens constantly, then it is indicative of a possibly more serious situation and it should be addressed quickly.
6. Know what the manufacturer of your boiler recommends as the average life span of your boiler and as the time approaches it will be increasingly important to have the system serviced and inspected annually by a professional.
7. Know the signs of problems with the ignition of your system and do not hesitate to call for service at the first sign of problems to prevent elevated carbon monoxide levels.

Why Boiler Plumbing Repair?

Like any piece of equipment the effective life of a boiler is limited. It eventually will need to be replaced. Replacing your system before it fails is an excellent preventative measure.

There are many who offer this service, but you will want to be sure that the company you select is both professional and reliable. Checking that your contractor is licensed and insured in Maryland is always the best practice. Choose a company with an established track record who has been around for a long time and will be around in the future to stand by their work.

Regular preventative maintenance and professional service will bring you peace of mind.
