Boilers: 101

Understanding how your boiler works can help you recognize the possible issues that can arise over time. First of all, the boiler engages when the thermostat tells it that the temperature in the home has dropped below your desired temperature. The electricity, gas, or oil that your boiler relies on then heats up the water inside your boiler before the steam created starts flowing through your home. When the water cools and the steam condenses, it travels back to your boiler where the entire process restarts.

If any part of the process isn’t working correctly, your home may not have access to the heat you need. For instance, if your thermostat is malfunctioning, it won’t be able to tell your boiler when to turn on or off. If there is debris that restricts the airflow in your home, your boiler will have to work harder to heat or cool your home. It’s always a good idea to address these issues as soon as possible to make sure that boilers in Helena, MT are working as designed.

Do You Need a New Boiler?

In some cases, you may be better served by installing a new boiler in your Helena, MT home. For instance, if your boiler is more than 10-15 years old, you should probably start planning on investing in a new boiler. Additionally, if you notice that you are making more frequent calls for boiler repair, it’s generally a sign that your boiler is running out of its useful lifespan. 

While you may want to delay investing in an entirely new boiler, the fact remains that choosing a new boiler can often be the best choice for your home. Over the course of the last several years, all heating and cooling items have come a long way in regard to energy efficiency. Obviously, purchasing a new boiler does mean that there will be a greater upfront cost, but that cost can often be offset by the continued monthly savings associated with a more energy-efficient boiler. Also, the cost of a new boiler may be offset by the less frequent repair visits. While there is nothing wrong with delaying a new boiler installation, there are times where it is the most responsible financial decision that you can make.

Why You Should Avoid DIY Boiler Work

Being a weekend warrior who excels in DIY tasks around your home can be incredibly tempting. While you may be able to take on plenty of tasks on your own, there are some that are better left to the pros. Boiler repair or installation is one of the tasks that should always be left to a professional. When you’re dealing with anything that requires the amount of electrical power or natural gas that a boiler requires, there is no way for you to safely work on it without proper training. Even the smallest of mistakes can lead to major health risks, including electrocution, carbon monoxide poisoning, or a house fire that jeopardizes the health and safety of your entire family. You can also void the warranty on your boiler by working on it on your own, meaning that you are responsible for the cost of any future repairs.
