Common Boiler Problems We’re Ready to Solve

Boilers are built to last, but even the most reliable systems eventually show signs of wear. Our team has seen it all, from simple fixes to complex replacements, and we're ready to diagnose your issue and recommend the right solution.

Call South Shore Mechanical if you’re dealing with:

• No heat or insufficient warmth. Your thermostat settings may be correct, but if your home stays cold, you could be facing issues with your pilot light, thermocouple, or circulation pump that prevent proper heat distribution throughout your space.
• Strange noises. Banging, whistling, or gurgling sounds often point to air trapped in the system, mineral buildup on the heat exchanger, or failing pump bearings that need immediate attention before they can cause further damage.
• Leaking or dripping water. Even small leaks can signal serious problems like corroded pipes, faulty pressure valves, or damaged seals that, left unaddressed, may lead to water damage and system failure.
• Frequent cycling. When your boiler turns on and off too often, it wastes energy and shortens the system's lifespan, usually indicating thermostat issues, low water pressure, or an oversized unit for your home's needs.
• Rising energy bills. A sudden spike in heating costs without increased usage typically means your boiler is working harder than it should due to inefficiency, poor maintenance, or components that have worn out over time.

Don't let boiler troubles disrupt your comfort. Our team can diagnose problems accurately and get your system running smoothly again.
