Unless they are connected to the same system, boilers and water heaters will both need their own expansion tanks. The only case they wouldn’t have separate expansion tanks is if the boiler is pulling double duty and managing a heating system while also supplying hot water for a home. In which case, you may not need a hot water heater.
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.
Most repairs take 2-6 hours, but extensive repairs or part replacements may require a full day or more, depending on availability.
When it comes to bleeding a radiator, the goal is to let out trapped air rather than letting out the water. Naturally, some water will dribble out when you open the valve to let out the air. But you don’t want a lot of water to leak out. Just leave the valve open long enough that the hissing noise stops, meaning the air has escaped, and just a dribble of water comes out of the radiator.
Even if you do everything right, your boiler’s pilot light might not come on. This has a number of possible causes, but the most common is a blocked jet. These jets are small and clog up even with a small amount of debris. You can clean it yourself or hire a pro to replace the component. Other possible causes include a faulty fan and frozen pipes, among others.
