WARNING SIGNS

Signs Your Home’s Boiler May Need Repair

The boiler in your home is critical to keeping your home functioning properly and your family comfortable. That’s why, when part of your boiler is broken it can be so frustrating. Thankfully the expert boiler technicians from Hero Home Services have the capability and knowhow to repair any issue with your home’s boiler. Here are a few signs to keep an eye out for to determine if your home’s boiler is in need of repair:

Abnormal Sounds

Normally your boiler won’t make much sound and any sound it does make turning on and off should occur in the background. Any banging, gurgling, or whistling sounds are indicative of a boiler in need of repair. Issues causing the abnormal sounds could be related to debris built up in the heat exchanger or a water backup.

Increased Energy Bills

Keeping an eye on your energy bill is a simple, effective way to see if your boiler is functioning as it should. It goes without saying that your boiler will work harder in the winter, but unexplained increases in your energy bill are a sign that your boiler needs maintenance or repair.

Leaks

A water leak stemming from your boiler is not an issue to take lightly. Any water leak coming from your boiler can spread quickly through your walls and through your floor. A water leak can be the result of a faulty pipe connection or a sign of a more complex issue. Regardless, the moment you notice a leak you should call a professional right away.

Water Isn’t Hot

If the water coming through your sink fixture or shower isn’t hot, or just isn’t as hot as it used to be, that could be a sign of something wrong with your boiler. To be sure, call Hero Home Services today to have a technician conduct an inspection.

Your Boiler Frequently Shuts Off

When boilers turn themselves off, it is usually to prevent overheating. The overheating could be caused by a multitude of issues. To determine what the issue ultimately is causing your boiler to shut itself off, call Hero Home Services today to have a technician come out to your home.
