Expert Boiler Installation in New Jersey, Delaware & Pennsylvania

How To Tell if a Boiler Is Right for Your Home

Is a boiler right for your home? Here are some ways to tell:

• Fuel source: If you have a reliable fuel source, gas, propane, electricity, or oil, you can use these to heat your home with a boiler.
• Ductwork: If you have a home without traditional ductwork, a boiler is a good choice for heating your home.
• Climate: If you live in an area that gets quite cold in the winter, boilers are a reliable heating source.

8 Signs You Need a New Boiler

If your boiler is becoming unreliable or inefficient, it could be time to replace it. With proper maintenance and timely repairs, boilers generally last 15 to 20 years, but look for any of the following signs if you think it might be time to replace:

• Frequent breakdowns: If your system requires constant, expensive repairs, it could indicate internal components like the pump or heat exchanger are wearing out.
• No heat or hot water: This might be due to a faulty thermostat, pump, or a broken diaphragm within.
• Strange noises like gurgling or banging: These noises could indicate air in the system, sludge buildup, or a malfunctioning pump or valve.
• Leaks: Leaks around the base may be caused by a damaged pressure relief valve, worn seals, or corrosion within the tank.
• Yellow or orange pilot light: A misfiring burner or faulty thermocouple may be causing the pilot light to turn a dangerous color, indicating incomplete combustion.
• Increased energy bills: A unit not operating efficiently could have a heat exchanger issue, leading to higher fuel consumption.
• Unusual smells: A gas leak, often from a faulty valve or cracked heat exchanger, could lead to dangerous fumes like carbon monoxide.
• Low water pressure: Low pressure could be caused by a broken pump, leaking valve, or a buildup of air in the system, reducing the ability to circulate water effectively.

A malfunctioning boiler isn’t just inconvenient — it can also be unsafe, potentially leading to carbon monoxide leaks or other serious hazards. Replacing it sooner can help prevent these risks.
