4 Signs it’s Time to Replace your Boiler

Is it time to replace your new boiler? Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning is here with a couple signals to look for when deciding whether it’s time to invest in a new boiler. 

Age 

If your condensing boiler has annual 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 discuss an upgrade. 

Bills 

If your utility bills are increasing or you’re having to maintain your boiler more frequently, it could be because it’s time to purchase 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 adequately and could be generating carbon monoxide. If you see these issues or have any concerns surrounding carbon monoxide in your home, you should call Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning or your gas company straightaway. 

Comfort 

If some of the rooms in your home are too hot or too cold and you can’t seem to control them correctly or get them comfortable, it could be that your boiler is not effective anymore and you could need to look into upgrade options.
