BOILER SERVICES IN BURLINGTON, UNION, HEBRON, FLORENCE, KY, AND SURROUNDING AREAS
Both for homeowners and businesses, boilers are an extremely effective way to heat a home. Not only are they extremely durable. A boiler system was the most reliable form of heating well before furnaces, heat pumps, and other heating options. Boilers as radiant heating systems are far more energy-efficient than standard forced-air heating systems. When your home is heated with a boiler, the heat disperses evenly for comfortable temperatures throughout your home and an extremely pleasant escape from the cold winter months.
HOW DOES A BOILER SYSTEM WORK?
Boilers are essentially water heaters used to heat and warm an interior. When you install a boiler system there are a number of ways to ensure superior performance. A home’s boiler distributes liquid throughout your space via radiators or radiant floor systems. The energy radiates out into the air or flooring like a blanket efficiently wrapping your entire home in warmth. Once the water has cooled, it moves back to the boiler, where it is reheated and then recirculated.
Modern home boiler systems use thermal oil, water and water-glycol solutions to transfer heat into your home. Your boiler is powered by natural gas as fuel for the heating process. The primary difference between boilers and furnaces is the transfer exchange. In a furnace, the air is heated by burning fuel. This results in drier indoor air conditions and only treats the air that circulates through the furnace. Boiler systems circulate the heat through piping so floors and energy-efficient radiators transfer heat to surfaces as well as the air.
Boilers are a wonderful way to heat your home because of their ability to make your home comfortable and energy efficiency usage. Since the hot water generated by the boiler moves through pipes, you gain better indoor air quality both by maintaining a higher relative humidity and reducing the amount of dust and debris circulating through ductwork. However, in the hot summer months, a boiler cannot help cool you down. You’ll need to look into central air conditioning, or another ductless cooling system to help keep your house cool in the summer.
BENEFITS OF BOILER HEATING SYSTEMS
If the term boiler elicits visions of old-fashioned iron boilers, think again. Contemporary boilers offer exceptional energy efficiency and robust performance. At Poston Brothers, we offer complete services including boiler installation, boiler repairs, and boiler maintenance. When you hire our team to care for your equipment, you gain some long-lasting benefits:
LOWER HEATING COSTS
Very little natural gas is needed to heat boiler systems, making them extremely environmentally friendly. Additionally, boilers use natural gas as fuel to heat the fluid which means indoor air is not polluted by the exhaust. Ultimately, because of the way boilers save on natural resources, you’ll save money on your monthly heating bills with a boiler system.
FEWER COLD SPOTS
With boiler heating, you’ll find that your home maintains at a more even temperature and is more comfortable throughout. Radiators spread heat to each room effectively and without much noise. With radiators in each room, you’ll notice consistent heating all over the house. And without ductwork, the heat can spread without being prevented from reaching particular rooms because of blocked air ducts. If a room is particularly cold, it’s most likely an issue with that particular radiator and not the boiler system itself.
LOW MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR REQUIREMENTS
Boiler heating systems are very effective and require few repairs. Part of this is attributed to the design of boilers. These systems have been around for centuries so our technicians are highly skilled at installation and maintenance that prevents the breakdown of pumps, cracks in seals, and other concerns. Boiler installation services when executed by our professional technicians, help your system last for many years without issues.
MORE EFFECTIVE HEATING
You’ll find that boiler heating is immediate and because the relative humidity is maintained you are often able to lower the temperature on your thermostat without sacrificing comfort. When you turn your thermostat up or down, you’ll feel the effects almost immediately. And with the benefit of user-friendly zoning capabilities, you can establish heating patterns and heat your home accordingly. This will ultimately save you on utility costs and reduce energy consumption. Ultimately, boiler heating is immediate, effective, and creates a super comfortable atmosphere.
WHAT TO DO IF YOUR BOILER STOPS WORKING
While most boilers work well and don’t need a lot of maintenance, issues do occur from time to time. If your boiler has stopped working and/or won’t produce heat, check the circuit breaker or fuse first. A lack of power may be an issue.
Sometimes, the water level of your boiler can get low as well, and this can cause problems. Other common issues with boilers include a malfunctioning thermostat, a malfunctioning pilot light (or a pilot light that has gone out), a problem with the burner ignition, or leaks around the boiler pump or elsewhere.
If any of these issues occur, do not hesitate to call Poston Brothers. We’ll send one of our technicians out right away to diagnose your boiler’s issues and offer a solution.
