Is your boiler not working properly? If you notice any issues—regardless of how minor they may seem—then you need to contact a professional boiler repair expert. Problems such as frequent shutdowns, pressure loss, or a lack of hot water could indicate a more significant underlying problem that requires the attention of a specialist. Ignoring these warning signs can lead to a major issue that becomes more costly to fix. Taking prompt action will ensure the smooth and efficient operation of your system and may even extend the lifespan of your boiler.
Are you experiencing boiler troubles?
Determining if your boiler requires repair can be done by recognising certain indicators and promptly addressing them. Here are some common problems that should prompt you to seek the services of a boiler repair professional:
Radiators are not heating up.
Is the radiator failing to heat up or giving off minimal heat despite raising the thermostat? It could be due to faulty valves, dirty water in the boiler, or trapped air.
Low pressure
When your boiler keeps switching off or losing pressure, it could indicate a leak on the automatic air vent or central heating system. However, it could also mean a failing expansion vessel or the relief valve is experiencing faulty pressure. A Gas Safe engineer will properly diagnose the issue to eliminate your guesswork and perform the necessary fix to get your system running smoothly again.
Flashing lights
Did you notice the lights flashing on your boiler system? That is usually the case when something’s wrong with the circuitry and electrics. A boiler repair professional can use a multimeter to find the issue and replace any faulty part. They can also fix other related issues like worn-out or seized pumps and stuck fans that cause the circuit boards to blow.
No hot water
Did you know that most of the issues mentioned above can prevent your boiler from producing hot water? Additionally, it could also be due to blockages in the system. To fix this, an expert will inspect and replace heat exchangers when necessary. Plus, they conduct tests to identify other underlying issues.
