WARNING SIGNS

5 Signs It’s Time for a New Boiler

Your boiler is one of the hardest-working systems in your home, and one of the most frustrating when age starts catching up with it. As efficiency slips, replacement becomes worth considering. Here’s what to look for:

Age

Time takes its toll on every boiler. With good upkeep, a boiler can last up to about 15 years. Once yours approaches that age and starts showing wear, it’s a good time to start considering a replacement.

Decreased Efficiency

A gradual drop in efficiency is one of the clearer, if quieter, signs your boiler’s time is up. What counts as too slow varies by homeowner, but the pattern is usually the same: water takes longer to heat, your home doesn’t warm evenly, and your energy bill creeps up as the unit strains to keep pace.

Discoloration

Discoloration on the unit itself often means fuel isn’t burning the way it should inside your boiler. Spot any on your Kansas City home’s boiler? Have a KB Complete technician take a look.

Frequent Repairs Needed

A boiler that keeps needing repairs is telling you it may be time to move on. Beyond just performance, replacing it can be the smarter choice for both safety and your wallet.

Leaks

A leaking boiler is more than an inconvenience — a unit that leaks often, or that constantly needs topped-off water, is usually near the end of the road. Replacing it before it fails can save you from a much costlier water-damage repair.
