With winter gone and spring is in the air, this is a good time to check for boiler problems. These problems may have occured a few months ago but the need for boiler repair is not immediate. Or it may have been tough to schedule the repair then. Now that the weather is not too cold outside, you can finally get someone to have your boiler checked.
Boiler Problems to Look Out For
LEAKS. Leaks can be found anywhere in the system and doing a visual inspection is the first thing that you can do. Look at the fittings and the seals. Check for drips and puddles along the pipes. After doing that, you may want to check the boiler pressure and see if there are any unexpected drops because this could indicate that there are problems with the relief valve.
KETTLING. These are weird gurgling or bubbling noises that your boiler could be making. If you can hear these boiler noises then it is an indication that there is a build-up of lime or scale in the heat exchange. The next thing that you need to do is get the help of a professional to clear everything up.
BLOCKAGES. Blockages prevent the boiler from doing what it’s supposed to do. That’s because it keeps the hot water from getting into the radiator. Aside from that, this can also cause several problems within your boiler system.
