As we move into the cooler months, ensuring your boiler is functioning efficiently is crucial for maintaining a comfortable and safe environment in your building. At Schwickert’s, we specialize in comprehensive boiler tune-ups designed to maximize performance, extend the life of your equipment, and prevent costly breakdowns.
Types of Boilers
Traditional boiler systems, often found in older homes, heat the entire property by sending hot water or steam through radiators. These systems are reliable for heating large spaces but can become less efficient over time, especially if they are not regularly maintained.
Newer boiler systems, such as those used for in-floor heating in many new construction patio homes, distribute heat more evenly by circulating water through pipes embedded in the flooring. These systems are ideal for specific areas like bathrooms or kitchens, offering energy-efficient, comfortable heating. However, even these advanced systems require regular tune-ups to avoid issues like uneven heating or system pressure problems.
Whether you have an older boiler system or a more modern setup, regular service is critical to keeping your heating system functioning smoothly and avoiding costly breakdowns.
Schwickert's Boiler Tune-Up
Our boiler tune-up service includes everything you need to maintain optimal performance:
Burner-Side Inspection and Cleaning: We clean the burner to ensure it operates correctly and safely. This reduces fuel waste and prevents potential malfunctions.
Safety Check: We perform a thorough check to identify and address any potential risks, such as gas leaks or pressure issues.
Combustion Test: A combustion test is important for preventing carbon monoxide poisoning. Also, an inefficient system increases energy costs.
Water Quality Sample: Poor water quality can lead to scaling and corrosion within your system. We take a water sample to assess and address any issues that could impact your boiler’s longevity and efficiency.
When is it Time for a Cleaning?
In addition to a tune-up, a boiler flush may be needed to remove any sediment or sludge that has built up inside your system. Over time, these deposits can impact efficiency, cause blockages, and lead to expensive repairs. A boiler flush clears these materials, improving heat transfer and overall performance.
