Common Boiler Problems

Here are some typical problems you might run into with hot water and steam boilers. While you may be able to take care of a few of these issues yourself, you may need a technician from Kingston Home Services by Enercare for more difficult heat repair or a nasty boiler breakdown.

  • Thermostat isn’t accurate. Ensure that it’s turned to “on” and the proper settings. Otherwise, your thermostat may need to be replaced.
  • No heat. Broken parts, thermostat problems or low water levels could be causing the problem.
  • Leaking or dripping. Can be caused by a malfunctioning internal part, worn-out seal or rust.
  • Banging, whistling or gurgling sounds. Air in the system, low water pressure or looming part failure can cause these noises.
  • Rumbling or kettling noise. Limited water flow caused by lime and sludge collecting in the heat exchanger. This causes water to overheat and boil.
  • Pilot light is out. Caused by a failing thermocouple, draft or built-up deposit. Natural gas could also be turned off.
  • Pressure is too low. Water could be leaking, or a pressure valve may need to be changed. Can also be caused by radiators that have been bled recently.
  • Condensate pipe is frozen. This pipe runs outside, so there is a threat of freezing. Thaw it by pouring warm water over it.
  • Radiators aren’t getting hot. Caused by sludge or air buildup in the system.
  • Boiler keeps turning itself off. Could be caused by several issues: low water pressure, thermostat issue, closed valve causing low water flow, air or pump not circulating water appropriately.

A lack of regular service can often lead to boiler breakdowns. Kingston Home Services by Enercare can help you choose a plan that could help you avoid expensive service calls—and may enhance your boiler’s efficiency.
