Boiler Repairs In Romsey
A reliable boiler is vital for keeping your home warm, comfortable, and energy efficient. When a fault develops, it can quickly disrupt daily life, especially during colder months. Recognising early warning signs can help prevent expensive repairs or complete system breakdowns.
At Pegasus Plumbers, our experienced heating engineers in Romsey provide fast, professional boiler repairs, ensuring your system runs safely and efficiently.
Common Boiler Faults and Warning Signs
No Heating or Hot Water
When your home suddenly loses heat or hot water, it’s often a sign that something inside the boiler system isn’t functioning correctly. This could be caused by:
- Faulty thermostats or timers not communicating with the boiler
- Motorised valve issues restricting water flow
- Airlocks or frozen condensate pipes
- Low system pressure
Our engineers will carefully test each component to pinpoint the cause, carry out any necessary replacements, and ensure your heating is fully restored.
Low Boiler Pressure
If the pressure gauge on your boiler drops below 1 bar, this usually indicates a leak, a faulty expansion vessel, or problems with the pressure relief valve. Running a boiler at low pressure can make it inefficient and even prevent it from firing up.
At Pegasus Plumbers, we don’t just repressurise the system, we identify the underlying issue and take steps to prevent it from recurring. This attention to detail helps protect your boiler and keeps it operating safely.
Strange Noises and Vibrations
Boilers should operate quietly, so if you start hearing whistling, banging, or gurgling noises, it’s often a sign of internal problems such as:
- Limescale build-up (known as “kettling”)
- Trapped air or sludge in the system
- Faulty circulation pump
Ignoring these noises can shorten your boiler’s lifespan and lead to further damage. Our engineers use professional diagnostic tools to locate the cause and restore smooth, quiet operation.
Leaks and Drips
A leaking boiler is never something to ignore. Even small drips can cause internal corrosion or damage nearby flooring and pipework. Leaks often stem from worn seals, loose joints, or high internal pressure.
Our team at Pegasus Plumbers will inspect every connection, replace faulty components, and check for any secondary issues that could lead to future leaks. Safety and precision are always our top priorities.
Pilot Light or Ignition Issues
If your pilot light keeps going out or your boiler fails to ignite, it could be caused by a blocked jet, a faulty thermocouple, or sensor problems. These issues can interrupt the gas flow and prevent safe operation.
Our Gas Safe registered engineers are fully qualified to work on all ignition systems, performing thorough safety checks before restarting your boiler.
