Gas, water, electric and combination boilers all need maintenance performed by a professional on a regular basis in order to ensure energy-efficiency and effectiveness. By having maintenance work done once a year, you can be assured that your boiler will work at peak performance, and minor issues will be addressed before they become major problems. Cranney Home Services technicians are familiar with all makes and models of boilers, and have been providing boiler maintenance services in the Northshore and Greater Boston areas for more than 40 years.
Improving Efficiency Through Maintenance In Northshore/Greater Boston
Boilers that are not properly maintained can suffer performance-wise, leading to higher energy bills due to wasted energy. You could potentially save 10 percent on your bills – hundreds of dollars per year – through having minor adjustments performed on your boiler system.
Monitoring Critical Controls In Northshore/Greater Boston
Your safety valves and water gauge glass are two of the most important components of your boiler system that need to be checked regularly. Your safety valves, as the name would indicate, are your boiler’s most important safety feature because it alleviates pressure if all other systems fail. Every steam and hot-water boiler must have at least one valve that provides sufficient relieving capacity in order to meet or exceed maximum boiler output.
If the water gauge glass is not properly cleaned and maintained, it will seem to show an appropriate water level when the boiler is actually low on water.
