HVAC Repair Waltham MA | Call JJ Hurley Plumbing & Heating

Absolutely. Many winter heating issues, like boiler pressure problems, can be linked to your plumbing system. Our comprehensive plumbing inspection checks for issues like hidden leaks, corroded pipes, or failing pressure relief valves that can directly impact your boiler's performance. Catching these problems early in the fall can prevent a cold and costly emergency when you need your heat the most.

First, check your thermostat is set to 'heat' and the temperature is set higher than the current room temperature. Ensure the furnace's power switch is on and the circuit breaker hasn't tripped. Also, check that your gas supply valve is open. If these are all fine, it's time to call us. Forcing a furnace to ignite can be dangerous; our technicians can safely diagnose and fix ignition issues, whether it's a faulty igniter, flame sensor, or gas valve.

Low boiler pressure is a common issue here, often caused by a small leak in the system or a failing pressure relief valve. Our plumbing inspection meticulously examines your entire heating water circuit—including pipes, radiators, valves, and the expansion tank—to pinpoint the source of the pressure loss. Finding and fixing these leaks not only restores proper heating but also prevents potential water damage to your home and improves your system's efficiency.
