No heat? Leaking or dripping? Kettling? Book a boiler repair evaluation today. A reliable boiler is a good boiler just when we need it most. All homeowners need the assurance that their heaters will consistently keep them warm during the winter. In the event of an emergency, W.T Plumbing will take a look at it for you right away.
We take on all aspects of plumbing and heating big or small.
This is a sign that something is wrong with the functioning of your boiler. It is near impossible for us to know what we will find when we are called about this particular issue. The problem may be with ignition, but there are many other possibilities to think about. It could be a safety switch that is interrupting the boiler's operation, a pump failing, or the thermostat that needs to be replaced. Another cause could be loss of pressure and when this happens it won’t be able to produce heat effectively. The pressure gauge on your boiler can help you determine this.
You shouldn’t need to be concerned about diagnosing the problem yourself. Call in our qualified heating technicians at W.T Plumbing for your repairs.
Leaking boilers are another common boiler repair we receive as an emergency call. If the leak originates directly from the boiler tank, you've got a major problem on your hands. There is a good chance that the boiler is corroding through and requires replacement. A leak, however, can come from a pressure relief valve or a pump, both of which can be fixed. Sometimes, we even discover that a supposed leak was simply condensation.
Kettling is a notorious problem among hot water boilers. In case you don't recognize the term, you may recognize the sound: a loud bang or rumble coming from your heating unit. Call W.T Plumbing as soon as possible if this happens to your heater, as it might grow into a much larger problem than it is now.
Water supply disruptions are caused by excess minerals. Due to our area, hard water causes mineral deposits in the tank to alter the pressure levels over time. Kettler boilers may be more prone to leaks or dangerous levels that put your home at risk.
The pilot light is responsible for the lighting of gas and electricity. When it goes out, your boiler will not function properly. Pilot lights aren't what they used to be. To maintain heat throughout the day and night, the pilot light had to be continuously lit in the past.
Some boilers still use this method, but others use electronic ignition to heat water only when required. Our heating technician will need to diagnose problems with your pilot and ignition system if you can't start the pilot on your own.
