Is it time to replace your new boiler? A-Plus is here with a few indicators to look for when determining whether it’s time to buy a new boiler.
Age
If your condensing boiler receives routine maintenance, you can expect it to last about 15 years or longer. Cast iron boilers can last even longer, 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 consider an upgrade.
Bills
If your energy bills are going up or you’re having to service your boiler more frequently, it could be because it’s time to buy 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 properly and could be creating carbon monoxide. If you see these issues or have any concerns regarding carbon monoxide in your home, you should call A-Plus or your gas company immediately.
Comfort
If some of the rooms in your home are too cool or too warm and you can’t seem to control them properly or get them comfortable, it could be that your boiler is not effective anymore and you could need to look into upgrade options.
