Signs You Need Boiler Installation or Replacement

A boiler can stop working at a moment’s notice, leaving you feeling trapped and panicking as the indoor temperature of your home suddenly drops to the chilly temperature outside. Fortunately, however, some key warning signals will allow you to contact us in advance.

If you are worried that your boiler may need to be replaced, look for the following signs, including:

• Your boiler’s age: Older boilers are much less fuel-efficient, meaning they have to work three to four times as hard as new boilers. If you notice that you are requiring several repairs for your boiler, it is probably time to get a replacement, which will ultimately save a lot more than many individual repairs.
• Water leakage or collection around the boiler: Seeping or leaking water is never a good sign. If you notice the ground is constantly damp around the boiler, it is time to get it checked out before it springs a larger hole.
• Persistent, odd noises: If you are noticing some creaking, groaning, hissing, or clanking sounds, there could be a part loose in your boiler system, or liquid escaping through a leak. Never ignore these sounds, which often warn that a future, more significant problem will occur if you do not take care of it.

When Do You Need Boiler Repair?

The last thing you want to happen on a cold winter's night is your source of heat to go out due to an overlooked repair. But, how do you know when you need to repair your boiler? Below are a few signs to look for to make sure your boiler doesn't completely fail.

• Strange Noises - 
  If you notice any odd or strange noises coming from your boiler, don't wait to find out and address the problem. Clunking, whirring or banging noises are an indicator that it could be your pump or fan has worn down and needs repairs.
• Bad Odors - 
  When you smell something bad coming from your boiler, it could be that your boiler has a carbon monoxide leak. This can be very harmful to your health as well as your households. Make sure to leave your home if you notice that smell and call us immediately for assistance.
• Leaks - 
  Boiler leaks may seem to be a normal thing, but if left unchecked those leaks can quickly spread to your home's walls and floors and cause extensive water damage. Contact us today for expert boiler repair in St. Louis.
