Understanding Common Boiler Issues
Boiler breakdowns can be a major inconvenience, especially during colder months. As experienced heating technicians, MPS Heating have experienced all types of faults and we always come prepared with the knowledge and skills to diagnose and repair the fault efficiently. Here are some common issues we encounter:
  • Boiler Pilot Light Issues: A malfunctioning pilot light can prevent the boiler from igniting.
  • Blocked Condensate Pipes: Clogged condensate pipes can cause the boiler to shut down.
  • Airlocks: Air trapped in the system can hinder water circulation and heat distribution.
  • Faulty Pump: A malfunctioning pump can prevent water from circulating through the system.
  • Thermostat Problems: A faulty thermostat can lead to incorrect temperature readings and inefficient heating.
  • Scale Build-up: Mineral deposits can reduce the efficiency of the boiler and cause damage.
  • Boiler Fault Code: Often when there is an issue, your boiler will let you know. If you have a fault code and are unsure what it is, Get in Touch and we will help.  

Fixing Your Boiler & Heating Problem

Troubleshooting and Repair Techniques
When faced with a boiler breakdown, it's crucial we approach the problem systematically. Here are some effective troubleshooting techniques that we use:
  1. Safety First: Always prioritise safety. Ensure the boiler is turned off and cooled down before attempting any repairs.
  2. Check for Obvious Issues: Inspect the boiler for visible damage, leaks, or loose connections.
  3. Test the Thermostat: Verify that the thermostat is functioning correctly by adjusting the temperature and observing the boiler's response.
  4. Check for Airlocks: Bleed the system to remove any trapped air.
  5. Inspect the Pump: Ensure the pump is running smoothly and not making any unusual noises.
  6. Clean the Heat Exchanger: If scale build-up is suspected, clean the heat exchanger to improve efficiency.
  7. Consult the Manual: Our experience has told us that even with our knowldge there are sometimes problems we have never encountered, if this is the case we to the manufacturer's manual for specific troubleshooting guidelines and component information. As we know our way around a boiler and all its parts, it is often easier for us to do this than a person who is unfamiliar.
