Boiler Repair Services on the Central Coast

• No Heat or Hot Water: This is often caused by issues with your thermostat settings, failed motorized valves, or problems with the boiler’s pressure. Our technicians can inspect & adjust your thermostat, check & replace faulty valves if necessary, & verify that your system maintains the correct pressure for optimum performance.
• Leaking or Dripping: Leaks can be caused by various factors, including corroded pipes, broken seals, or high water pressure. Our team can locate the source of the leak, repair or replace damaged components, & adjust pressure settings to prevent future occurrences.
• Strange Noises in Your Boiler System: Banging, whistling, or gurgling noises often signal air in the pipes, low water pressure, or kittling (sediment build-up). We can bleed your radiators to remove any trapped air, check pressure levels, & perform a thorough cleaning to eliminate sediment buildup for quiet & efficient operation.
• The Boiler Keeps Switching Off: This could be due to low water pressure, thermostat issues, or a blockage in the system. Our experts can run a complete diagnostic to identify the root cause, address any blockages, recalibrate your thermostat, & verify water pressure levels to restore reliable functionality.

Should You Call an HVAC Technician or a Plumber to Fix Your Boiler?

Deciding whether to call an HVAC technician or a plumber to fix your boiler depends on the nature of the problem (but we're both, so you don't have to hesitate to call us ). If you’re dealing with issues related to heating efficiency, thermostat malfunctions, or unusual noises from your heating system, an HVAC technician is usually the right professional to contact. On the other hand, if your boiler problem involves water supply issues, leaks, or problems with the pipes, a plumber may be better suited to resolve these challenges. But like we said, we have both.

The fact that the Homepatible team includes both HVAC technicians & plumbers means that whatever your boiler needs, we have the know-how to handle it. We provide a one-stop solution that removes the need to coordinate multiple service providers for a seamless, stress-free experience.

Frequently Asked Boiler Questions

How Often Should a Boiler Be Serviced?

Regular servicing of your boiler is crucial to ensure it operates efficiently and safely. We recommend having your boiler serviced annually. This routine check-up can help identify any minor issues before they become major problems, extend the lifespan of your boiler, and ensure your system is running at peak efficiency, potentially saving you money on heating costs.

What Are the Signs That My Boiler Needs Repair?

Common signs that your boiler may require repair include unusual noises, inconsistent heating, frequent system shutdowns, and water leaks. If you notice a sudden spike in energy bills, it could also indicate that your boiler is not working efficiently. It's essential to address these issues promptly to avoid more significant problems down the line.

Are There Energy Efficiency Standards for Boilers in California?

Yes, California has specific energy efficiency standards for boilers. These standards are designed to reduce energy consumption and emissions. As such, using energy-saving boilers can lead to cost savings on utility bills while reducing your environmental footprint. At Homepatible, we keep up-to-date with these standards to ensure all our installations and repairs comply.

Should I Repair or Replace My Boiler?

Deciding whether to repair or replace your boiler depends on several factors, including the age of your boiler, the cost of repairs, and the system's current efficiency. A boiler over 15 years old may be more costly to repair than replacing with a newer, more energy-efficient model. Our team can provide a comprehensive assessment to help you make an informed decision.
