Answering Your Frequently Asked Questions
We value your time, so we are happy to answer any questions you have about our services before scheduling an appointment with our team. No matter the concern, we are here to put your mind at ease and help you know what to expect when hiring us for service. Here are some of the most frequently asked questions we receive:
How much does it cost to replace a boiler?
The price of replacing a boiler varies based on factors like fuel type, size, efficiency, and installation costs. On average, boiler replacement can range from $3,000 to $8,000. Replacing with the same type of fuel tends to be less expensive, while higher efficiency models or changing fuel types can cost more due to increased labor and additional components.
How much greater does a new system function?
AFUE, which stands for "annual fuel utilization efficiency," is a way to gauge heating efficiency. It shows how much fuel is converted into heat; a higher AFUE means better efficiency. Older boilers typically have a lower AFUE, around 56% to 70%. However, modern, high-efficiency boilers can achieve an excellent AFUE of 90% or even higher.
Why is my boiler leaking?
Cracks, worn-out seals, loose connections, and shifts in pressure can lead to water leaks in your boiler. If you notice any leakage, it's best to contact a professional to assess the situation and determine the necessary residential boiler repairs.
Why is my boiler not heating properly?
If your boiler isn't starting, there may be an issue with its ignition, or another part connected to it. The problem might arise from the boiler, the thermostat, or the circuit board. Your nearby Aire Serv service expert can promptly identify the issue for you.
