Should you replace your boiler? All American Air Service Experts is here with some signs to look for when choosing whether it’s time to purchase a new boiler.
Age
If your condensing boiler has annual maintenance, you can expect it to function about 15 years or longer. Cast iron boilers can last decades, even up to 50 years with proper maintenance. If your condensing boiler is coming up on 15 years or your cast iron boiler is getting close to 50 years, it may be time to think about an upgrade.
Bills
If your heating bills are rising or you’re having to maintain your boiler more repeatedly, it could be because it’s time to invest in a new, more efficient boiler.
Discoloration
If you see 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 observe these issues or have any concerns about carbon monoxide in your home, you should call All American Air or your gas company as soon as possible.
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 may need to look into upgrade alternatives.
