Boiler Faults & Repair

Commercial Boiler Repair

As a business or property owner, an issue with your boiler could end up potentially causing a loss of revenue during your downtime, and even cause harm to your employees, customers or occupants. If you do not act fast, and instead delay seeking professional help, the fault with your boiler could escalate and result in a more severe, and expensive repair in the future. Boiler breakdowns can cause decreased heating output and a lack of sufficient hot water, but they can also sometimes result in gas leaks and, in more serious cases, carbon monoxide poisoning. As a business owner, employer or landlord, it is your responsibility to maintain a safe environment for your customers, employees, occupants or tenants.

The Most Common Boiler Repair Signs To Look Out For

If you encounter a boiler breakdown or your boiler experiences a fault, it can sometimes be a stressful experience. Boilers are by far one of the most dependable heating systems for your home and commercial premises. Although boilers are meant to withstand wear and tear and are built for longevity, you can always encounter an issue with your boiler. With over 50 years of experience in providing a first-class service for boiler repair anywhere in South Wales here are some of the most common boiler faults that our fully qualified gas engineers at Eric Collier & Son have found to warrant our boiler repair service:

  • No heating or hot water is available from radiators or taps
  • Your boiler has started emitting odd noises, such as banging, whistling, gurgling or clanging
  • The pilot light has gone out or is an unusual colour
  • The thermostat is not working correctly and not showing the correct temperature
  • Your boiler is showing a loss of pressure due to a leak or a faulty relief valve that requires replacing
  • You’ve noticed an odd smell emitting from the boiler or around the property
  • Water leaking or rust appearing around the boiler, or you’ve noticed a decrease in your water pressure
  • Your home or business’ energy bills are getting higher than normal

The best way to avoid the need for a boiler repair is to have an annual boiler service by an experienced heating engineer from Eric Collier & Son. Annual boiler servicing ensures that your boiler continues to work safely and efficiently, and will help to detect and identify even the most minor boiler faults early on, allowing any necessary repairs to be carried out before they escalate into future breakdowns where more significant, and likely more expensive, boiler repairs will need to be carried out.

Simple Checks To See If Your Boiler Is Broken

We strongly advise against you taking on a boiler repair yourself and should always seek a professional repair service to be carried out by qualified and Gas Safe registered engineers, such as the team here at Eric Collier & Son. However, there are some simple checks that you can carry out yourself before calling a heating engineer:

  • Check the electricity supply: One of the first checks that you can do for your boiler is to see if there is any supply of electricity. Check to see if it’s plugged in; if it is, but still has no power, then contact your electricity provider. If you have experienced a power cut, there is a good chance that your boiler may just need a reset again.
  • Check the water supply: If you suspect that your boiler is broken, one of the easiest checks that you can carry out is to check if there is any water supply in your home by simply running a tap. If there is no water running then your boiler may be broken.
  • Check the fuel supply: For those with a gas boiler, if you have other gas appliances in your home, such as a stove, you can check to see if they are working. If the gas stopcock is switched on but there is no gas pulling through, then this will mean that there is a gas supply problem.
  • Check the boiler pressure: If you think your boiler is broken, checking the pressure gauge is always a good idea. When checking, you should take a look at the manual to see the correct pressure for your boiler. If the pressure is at the right level, then you may have a gas supply problem, which is when you should call a Gas Safe engineer to come and take a look.
  • Bleed your radiators: If your boiler is running fine and fires up properly but your radiators don’t seem to be heating up, then you can try bleeding them. Air can become trapped in radiators, which is very common, and bleeding them allows the trapped air to escape. This is possible to do by yourself and won’t need the assistance of a professional heating engineer. When bleeding your radiators, always ensure that your heating is switched off before as hot water could spray out.
  • Check for an error code: Most modern boilers will contain a digital display pad where you can check to see if there are any error codes displaying if you suspect that your boiler is broken. All modern boilers will have different error codes, usually displaying letters, so you should always refer to the boiler manual.

In carrying out the relevant checks above, you may be able to pinpoint your boiler’s problem yourself – whilst boilers are very hardwearing, reliable appliances, there are a lot of components involved that can sometimes be temperamental, such as the water supply or issues with the electricity supply. Being able to troubleshoot, and fix, these problems yourself will save you needing to engage the services of a heating engineer, and allow your boiler to continue working effectively a lot quicker. 

In the instance none of the above works to fix your boiler, you should still undertake the relevant checks so that you can help give us a headstart in diagnosing your boiler’s issue. Our team of engineers at Eric Collier & Son will attend your business or home as soon as possible to carry out your boiler repairs, but it always helps to know what the problem might be before our arrival, or we may even be able to help you fix the problem over the phone. If you are experiencing any issues with your boiler, or you have a lack of heating or hot water, then get in touch with our boiler repair team at Eric Collier & Son by calling 0845 2000 100 today.
