What Is a Boiler and How Do They Work?

A boiler is a heating unit that heats water in a tank. The boiled water, or steam from it, is then sent throughout the rest of the home through pipes that lead to radiators. Radiators are metal fixtures, usually on the walls of a house, that radiate the heat from the boiler. Both the pipes and the radiators heat the home. As water or steam cools and condenses, it travels back through the pipes to the boiler, repeating the cycle.  

Your boiler is essential for keeping your home safe and warm, especially during the cold winter months. At Evergreen Services, we provide our clients with honest, friendly service. We guarantee 100% satisfaction with our work, and we are licensed and insured for your peace of mind. Contact us for:

Boiler Problems Cranston Homeowners Might Encounter

Boiler systems are surprisingly sophisticated and low-maintenance, especially considering that the concept is over a century old. Still, problems do come up. Here are some boiler maintenance issues homeowners might face in Cranston:

  • Air in the pipes. When a significant amount of air makes its way into a boiler’s pipe system, it may not work as efficiently.
  • Leaks. Boiler systems must be closed in order to run efficiently, so leaks can cause major problems, from simple inefficiency to water damage.
  • Dirty radiators. Radiators heat the air around them through contact with the hot metal, so dirt buildup can reduce heat transfer.
  • Pilot light problems. The pilot light on a boiler should always be lit so the system can ignite when you turn it on.
  • Pressure problems. The water or steam inside a boiler has to be pressurized to force it through the rest of the house.

Signs Your Boiler Needs Professional Attention

If you are a Cranston homeowner with a boiler, you know how important it is to keep it in working order to deal with the harsh temperatures that come with a Rhode Island winter. Sometimes, problems are not immediately obvious. Here are a few things to watch for:

  • The pilot light is repeatedly going out. If your pilot light won’t stay lit, that could indicate a bigger problem with your boiler. Contact a professional to assess the issue.
  • The boiler is turning on but not staying on. If your boiler turns on, but stops before it has heated your house, you may have a sensor problem.
  • The boiler turns on, but does not heat your house. This indicates a potential problem with your pressure valve or a leak in your system.

Is a Boiler an Efficient Heating System?

Yes, boilers are generally efficient for home heating. They have similar efficiency rates to gas furnaces.

The time it takes to install a boiler can vary. Simply replacing a boiler and attaching it to an existing pipe and radiator system is usually a single-day job. Installing an entire system can take several days.

Absolutely. These homes were built long ago and many of these buildings have cast-iron radiators, which are more efficient at holding heat than baseboards in new construction. We specialize in custom “retro-fitting” the newest, most efficient boilers into existing steam or hot water systems. With all this in mind we concentrate on regulating the pressure so that your historic radiators heat uniformly without the “banging” or “clanking” noises that plague many incorrectly installed modern systems.

Rhode Island’s water is generally good quality, but minerals can cause “kettling”— which happens when limescale builds up inside your boiler’s heat exchanger. As flow through various portions of a service pipe can change, the differential rate slows down sediment in older portions of lines leading up to a faucet, such as those in areas where groundwater levels fluctuate (like near the Pawtuxet River). To get rid of this build-up, we recommend Cranston residents undergo an annual “system flush” as a way to keep your heating system free from internal corrosion so that your boiler doesn’t need to work twice as hard in order to heat the same volume of water.
