Trusted Residential Boiler Repair
Boilers can encounter various issues, from leaks and breakdowns to pressure loss and unusual noises. Despite seeming daunting, most problems can be resolved through targeted repair or component replacement.
Our home boiler repair services kick off with a comprehensive inspection by our HVAC experts. During this evaluation, we meticulously identify the root cause of the problems and present you with viable repair options.
Key indicators that your boiler may require repair include:
- Overheating
- Unusual noises (clunking, banging, hissing)
- Strange smells (gas leaks demand immediate attention)
- Inability to turn the unit on or off
- Lack of hot water supply
Once the issue is pinpointed, our HVAC professionals in Salt Lake City undertake various repairs, including:
- Unclogging pipes
- Adjusting fittings to fix leaks
- Restoring pressure or water levels
- Flushing or cleaning the unit and its components
- Relighting the pilot light
- Replacing broken parts
- Securing or restoring electrical connections
To maintain your boiler's efficiency and prevent costly repairs, we recommend scheduling annual maintenance services. Depending on your system type and heating needs, our maintenance services may vary, and we'll provide tailored recommendations after inspecting your unit.
Effective Boiler Replacement
When your boiler is beyond repair or no longer meeting your heating needs, it's time to consider a replacement. Our expert recommendation will be tailored to provide you with the most energy-efficient options for your home.
Boiler replacement becomes necessary in several situations:
- Frequent or costly repairs become the norm.
- Your unit has aged 15 years or more.
- Connected systems take longer to heat up.
- Energy bills have skyrocketed.
- The heat exchanger is failing or broken.
Our meticulous replacement process involves the careful removal of your existing unit and the installation of a new one. If you choose to upgrade your system, such as switching from steam to hot water or opting for a condensing system, or if you decide to change fuel types (electric, oil, natural gas, propane, etc.), the process may take slightly longer and come at a higher cost.
Rest assured that our team will always be transparent about costs, labor processes involved, and the expected timeline for installation. Trust Harris Aire Serv to provide you with efficient solutions for all your boiler replacement needs.
Boiler Systems: Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to replace a boiler?
The cost of replacing a boiler depends on factors such as fuel type, efficiency, size, and labor. On average, replacement costs range from $3,000 to $8,000. Simple same-fuel replacements are cheaper, while higher efficiency models or changes in fuel type may increase costs due to additional labor and installations.
How much more efficient is a new boiler?
The efficiency of a boiler is measured by its AFUE (annual fuel utilization efficiency). Higher AFUE numbers indicate greater efficiency. Traditional boilers have an AFUE of 56% to 70%, while modern high-efficiency boilers achieve an impressive AFUE of 90% or higher.
Why is my boiler leaking water?
Water leakage in boilers can be caused by cracks, deteriorated seals, loose joints, or pressure fluctuations. If you notice your unit leaking water, it's essential to contact a professional for assessment and necessary residential boiler service.
Why isn't my boiler heating up?
If your boiler fails to heat up, there could be issues with ignition or other connected components such as the thermostat or circuit board. A qualified Harris Aire Serv service professional can quickly diagnose and resolve the problem.
