Rudd Plumbing Heating and Air HVAC company has many customers who rely on a boiler to keep them comfortable and safe all winter long. If you’re experiencing an issue with your system, schedule boiler repair services in Charleston, SC. Malfunctioning boilers can cause a sharp increase in heating costs. Problems can worsen and become more expensive to repair. Systems can even degrade to the point you’re forced into scheduling boiler installation services instead.
Trusted Boiler Repair and Replacement Services
One of the most common causes of boiler problems is limescale and sediment in the tank. It can collect in the tank and cover components over time. That buildup reduces energy efficiency and can shorten the life of the system. It can also manifest in a wide range of issues. Those include inconsistent temperatures, rising pressure, and strange noises.
Limescale is why we recommend flushing your tank as a regular boiler service. If you haven’t done it in a while, we can do it now. We’ll flush all the scale and sediment out and then clean the tank before refilling it.
Another issue our customers often deal with is cold spots in their radiators. This happens when air gets into the system, and it prevents that area of the radiator from giving off heat. Fortunately, this is usually a relatively simple fix that involves bleeding the radiators.
Should you opt for a boiler replacement instead of a repair? One factor in our recommendations is age. The 10-year mark is where we start to lean toward replacement. Cost is another factor. If you’re looking at 50% or more of what replacement will cost, a new boiler is usually best.
If you do opt for boiler installation, this is an excellent time for it. Modern hydronic heating systems are more efficient than ever. That means your system will cost less to run. You may be able to save even more through energy rebates and a tax credit.
Watch for these other signs you may need a boiler repair or replacement:
Excessive condensation
Loud and unusual noises
Pilot light frequently going out
Increasing energy consumption
Low or high pressure in the tank
