Superior Boiler Repair in Akron

A boiler that’s given good care and maintenance can last about 15 years. If you have a boiler that’s older than this, you might want to consider replacing it with a newer model.

Signs that your boiler might need work or even replacement include:

• Leaks
• Low pressure
• Frozen drain pipe
• No hot water
• Unstable pilot light

Other problems that might call for boiler repair are problems with your radiators, a boiler that doesn’t obey the thermostat setting and weird noises such as banging or gurgling. Of course, another sign that it’s time for replacement is that the boiler just won’t work no matter what you do.

If your old boiler is past repairing or if you just want to swap it for a new, more efficient model, our plumbers are here to help. First, they’ll come to your home, inspect it and make a heat load calculation. This will tell them what size boiler is best for your home. A boiler that’s too big will short cycle. A boiler that’s too small will be stressed and inefficient. This will shorten its working life.

To reduce your heat loss, our plumber might have to reconfigure some of your plumbing pipes. This will save you money in the long run when it comes to your energy bills. If your boiler uses gas as fuel, the plumber will be especially careful to make sure your boiler is hooked up to the gas line properly. They won’t leave until they are certain that everything is working as it should.
