Answers To All Your Boiler Questions
The P.K. Wadsworth Heating & Cooling team is here to answer all your boiler questions.
How does a boiler work?
A boiler produces radiant heat by pumping hot water through pipes or radiators to warm your space. As a result, homeowners get consistent heat with energy-efficiency ratings of up to 95%. Learn all about boilers by contacting our team today.
Why does a boiler leak?
Leaks in boilers are often the result of corrosion, loose joints, or a faulty heat exchanger. The solutions vary from flushing the system to replacing certain components. Trust our expert technicians to provide you with the proper diagnosis and repairs.
Can I repair my boiler myself?
Homeowners should not attempt to repair their boilers themselves. A trained professional has the skills and tools to perform your repair properly and ensure lasting results for common issues like strange noises, pilot light problems, loss of water pressure, and more.
How do I know if my boiler needs repair or replacement?
A relatively new boiler with minor issues can be repaired. However, there are some instances where a replacement may be your best financial option. The first is if your system is nearing the end of its 15-year lifespan. The second is if your system is inefficient and causes high utility bills. The last is if your system requires frequent repairs or a repair that costs more than half of the replacement cost.
How often should I schedule boiler maintenance?
We recommend scheduling annual boiler maintenance to ensure safety, efficiency, and reliability. During a tune-up, a professional will thoroughly inspect your system and check for combustion efficiency. They’ll then ensure sufficient airflow and confirm proper operating pressures and temperatures before providing a thorough cleaning. These services help keep your system operating at peak performance.
Do boilers provide hot water for my home?
Homeowners can choose to install a “combi” boiler, which heats their homes and also provides their hot water supply.
What are the benefits of choosing a boiler?
Unlike furnaces, boilers are more energy-efficient for heating your home and can result in cost savings in the long run. They are also very durable and have a long lifespan.
Why is my boiler losing pressure?
A loss in boiler pressure is often due to leaks in either the system or the pressure relief valve. It can also be caused by bleeding radiators or air in the system. Most of these can be repaired easily to restore proper pressure.
How do I determine the correct size boiler for my home?
Our team is knowledgeable about finding the right boiler size for your home. We’ll calculate this based on your square footage, insulation, climate, and number of radiators to ensure your total comfort in the cold.
What fuel does a boiler use?
Boilers most often run on natural gas but can also run on propane, oil, and electricity. Natural gas offers fast and consistent heat delivery with great efficiency, making it the top choice for homeowners who have access to it.
