Is your boiler in need of replacing? Teays Valley Service Experts is here with a few signs to look for when choosing whether it’s time to invest in a new boiler.
Age
If your condensing boiler receives standard maintenance, you can expect it to last about 15 years or so. Cast iron boilers can last decades, even up to 50 years with proper maintenance. If your condensing boiler is almost 15 years or your cast iron boiler is coming up on 50 years, it may be time to consider an upgrade.
Bills
If your energy bills are going up or you’re having to service your boiler more frequently, it could be because it’s time to invest in a new, more efficient boiler.
Discoloration
If you discover yellow flames on the gas burners and black soot on oil burners it could be a sign that the fuel is not burning properly and could be creating carbon monoxide. If you notice these issues or have any concerns regarding carbon monoxide in your home, you should call Teays Valley Service Experts or your gas company immediately.
Comfort
If some of the rooms in your home are too cool or too warm and you can’t seem to control them correctly or get them comfortable, it could be that your boiler is no longer effective and you may need to look into upgrade options.
