Benefits of Steam Boilers

When selecting a heating system for your property, there are many benefits to installing a boiler system. For one, it’s a great option when heating a large space. It can also function in extremely cold temperatures and can transfer the heat it creates from the steam to the rest of the building. This makes steam boilers ideal for large homes with poor insulation and large commercial spaces.

Signs Your Boiler Needs To Be Repaired

Like other heating systems, a boiler may occasionally need professional repairs. If you notice the following issues with your system you should call a contractor to inspect the unit:

Flame turns yellow. If the flame turns from blue to yellow, it can indicate a carbon monoxide leak, which can be extremely dangerous. If you notice this you should immediately evacuate your home and call a professional.

Faint smell: An odor coming from the system can also indicate a carbon monoxide leak. This should be treated as an emergency and requires immediate help.

Strange sounds: Any odd or unfamiliar noises coming from the unit should be inspected by a contractor.

Increase in utility bills: An increase in your monthly energy bills can indicate that your boiler is operating less efficiently. You should have it inspected to determine if the unit should be repaired or replaced.
