"Our brand new system was not heating properly. Gary (FIVE STAR EMPLOYEE) came and fixed a problem. It was not straight forward and he had to do a bit of research, but he made it work better than it ever had!. He came back the next day and changed the filter and rec-hecked the system. We were warm and snug after his dedicated service! Thanks for the GREAT experience."

Boiler Repair questions, answered by experts

If you go to turn it counterclockwise and it won’t turn anymore, it’s open. Like most other valves, you should be able to turn a radiator valve counterclockwise (to the left) to open it and clockwise (right) to close it. To close a radiator valve, turn it clockwise until you meet some resistance and can’t turn anymore, but do so carefully to avoid breaking the valve.

Scale from hard water is hard to diagnose until it starts causing problems. If your area has particularly hard water, that’s most likely what your boiler is using. If scale build-up becomes a problem, it starts to cause decreased flow and heating, and eventually, valve failures as valves become blocked. Let boiler professionals know if you’re worried about scale and they can offer advice or implement a solution.

It's possible that your oven's gas ignitor will wear out before the rest of the appliance. An ignitor may last about eight years before it needs replacing. In some cases, cleaning the ignitor to remove any built-up food and debris may help to prolong its life. Replacing the ignitor in a gas oven costs an average of $200.

Blockages can occur for various reasons, primarily linked to the accumulation of debris or substances within the heating system. Common causes include the buildup of sediment, rust, or mineral deposits inside the boiler or its pipes, hindering water flow and heat transfer. Additionally, air pockets or trapped gasses can impede circulation. In central heating systems, sludge or corrosion within radiators can obstruct the flow of hot water. External factors like frozen pipes in winter can also lead to blockages. Regular maintenance will help prevent blockages and ensure efficient boiler operation.

In most cases, you should hire a professional to carry out services on your HVAC system, as the components are complicated, expensive, and potentially dangerous to work with. However, there are a few things you can do on your own to keep your HVAC system in good condition, including changing your filters every three months, keeping the area around your outdoor condenser clear of debris and plant growth, making sure your or intakes aren’t blocked, and keeping an eye out for increased energy bills, strange noises, and unusual odors related to your equipment.
