How Our HVAC Technicians Maintain Your Boiler

Visually Inspect the Boiler System for Potential Issues

We start by thoroughly inspecting the entire system, looking for leaks or other problems that may have occurred since our last visit. This helps us prioritize what needs to be addressed during your boiler’s tune-up. 

Inspect Burner Components

  • Pilot Light: We check the assembly for any signs of trouble and ensure the pilot is burning consistently. If it’s obstructed by dirt or debris, we clean it to restore proper flow.
  • Burners: We inspect burners for cracks or damage and clean any residue to keep the burner holes clear.
  • Flame Spreader: This is a metal plate that’s above the burner, these can collect dirt, which we will clean.
  • Thermocouple: This component is visually inspected to ensure it’s correctly positioned and functioning properly to shut off fuel if there is an interruption in the boiler’s flame functioning.

Check Water Pressure

We check the water pressure that is circulating through your boiler and into your home to make sure it’s correct. Adjusting the pressure ensures that hot water is distributed evenly, keeping every corner of your house warm during the coldest months in Glastonbury.

Check Gas Pressure

For gas-fueled boilers, we check gas pressure levels using a pressure gauge and often a manometer to ensure they meet the manufacturer’s specifications. If needed, we adjust the pressure to keep your system running smoothly.

Check the Oil Boiler

For oil boilers, we inspect the oil filters and lines for cleanliness. We also bleed any trapped air that could cause noise or disrupt oil flow.

Final Boiler Heating Checks

We run a full heating cycle, checking for any unusual noises, leaks, or operational issues. We make sure your boiler ignites smoothly and distributes heat evenly throughout your home. Finally, we check the thermostat to ensure it’s communicating properly with your system to make sure it’s going on and off as needed.

Finishing the Work and Informing You of What We Did

Before we leave, we’ll walk you through the work we performed, including any repairs or potential future concerns. If any parts may need replacing soon, we’ll let you know.
