In addition to furnaces and boilers, heating systems options include wood and pellet heaters, active solar heating, and heat pumps, which are used for both heating and cooling. In addition, a combination of proper insulation, air sealing, and energy-efficient windows and doors will help ensure that your home is both comfortable and energy efficient, thus you will reduce the volume of heating systems maintenance.

Gas boilers are similar to oil heating systems, the difference is there are no oil filters and the need to perform heating systems maintenance is less than oil boilers.Read More
In most cases; it’s recommended that you keep one or two THERMO COUPLING around in case they go bad. You will know when: You try to relight pilot and it will not. There are other type gas heating systems that uses the ELECTRONIC IGNITOR MODULE when engaged; will give you a ‘ticking’ sound. This boiler does not use Thermo coupling. Hydronic heating systems (hot water) do not have sight glasses. You will see CIRCULATING PUMPS hooked up in series with a LOW WATER cut-off module. If you have any question. Please feel free to go to contact me and post your questions and comments. Link below will take you to essential parts for your boiler.

VERY IMPORTANT STEPS TO TAKE

(1) Read More
Examine your boiler’s vent connection pipe and chimney, because these parts deteriorate over time. Determine that no holes or cracks are present and that all areas that should be sealed are intact. (2) Inspect your heat exchanger for proper function. Heat exchangers typically leak water, so if you notice a water leak, that’s likely the problem. (3) Readjust the controls on your boiler so they provide the optimum levels of efficiency and heat. The more efficient heating systems are, the more money your family will save on heating costs.

Check your boiler’s combustion chamber for any cracks that could leak gas. Perform a carbon monoxide test, and if you find abnormal carbon monoxide levels, immediately call in a professional to remedy the problem. Carbon monoxide can be lethal, so placing a detector in the same room as your boiler is essential to safety. (2) Clean and oil your heating systems’ blower to remove any corrosion, dust or sediment from its surface. (3) Re-adjust the blower and air temperature controls to desired levels. Check and re-adjust the fuel input and flame characteristics. (4) Seal any holes or cracks in the connections between your boiler and main ducts to ensure heating systems’efficiency and safety.

Test the pressure-relief valve and high-limit control valve on your heating systems to ensure proper function. Do so by running your hand over the drain lines attached to the valve to see if they’re hot, which means that the pressure relief valve is opening. It’s normal for the drain line to be warm near the valve. Raise the test lever on the valve. If it’s functioning properly, you’ll hear water going down the relief valve drain line. To test the high-limit control, press the pilot button. If it does not release, turn off the gas and replace the valve. (2) Check the pressure tank. The tank should be filled with air, but if it is not properly functioning, it will be filled with water. (3) Clean the surface of heating systems and heat exchanger. Maintaining Steam Heating Systems. (1) Drain some water from heating systems and float chamber. This removes sediment from both areas. Draining water from the boiler improves heat exchange function, and draining water from the float chamber prevents clogs from sediment in the low-water cutoff control. (2) Test some of the water you have drained from your heating systems. If you need to, add chemicals to help prevent corrosion and control natural deposits. You can do so by purchasing a water testing kit. You are mainly testing for the alkalinity, which causes corrosion, and the calcium and magnesium content, which leave behind sediment. Alkalinity for water is usually between 100 and 500 mg/L; however, a slightly higher alkalinity is also normal. The water in your heater normally contains 21.8 mg/L of calcium, with 1 to 135 mg/L still in the normal range. Depending on your source, magnesium content could range 2 mg/l to 111 mg/l. If your water is on the high side of either range, you might want to consider purchasing a water softener for your home. (3) Clean and test both the high-limit and low-water cutoff safety controls, as well as the heat exchanger. Test the high-limit control as explained earlier. To test the low-water cutoff, push the test button while the burner is running. The LED lights on the controls should turn on. When you release the button, the burner should start and the lights should turn off. Clean these controls by inserting a long, narrow brush into the valve openings. note: Heating systems maintenance should be performed at least once per year especially before winter sets in.

Our goal is to spread the word to homeowners about the secret that other HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) companies don’t want you know: A homeowner can save thousands on a new air conditioning and heating system by buying the equipment direct (average savings is $4,000 per order — and can be as much as $6k – $10k). Most homeowners don’t know they can do this and instead they call a local HVAC installer who sells them the service plus the equipment — at a huge markup. We sell the furnace and AC systems (plus more) at wholesale pricing and deliver right to your doorstep. Our main goal at HVAC Direct Online is to educate the customer and help them save as much money as possible. HVAC products are some of the largest investments an individual can purchase for their home, and not many people are well educated on this topic. We aim to change this by empowering our customers. We want to help homeowners save thousands of dollars by buying direct. We are proud of our industry-best customer service team staffed by HVAC professionals and we are open in the evenings and on Saturdays.
