Frequently Asked Questions

My boiler has broken down and my radiators are cold. What should I do first?

First, check that your thermostat is set correctly and that the circuit breaker hasn't tripped. If those are fine, it's best to call a professional like S G Racette. A boiler breakdown often involves complex components like the circulator pump or ignition system. We can diagnose the issue—whether it's a faulty part causing the breakdown or air trapped in the system leading to cold radiators—and perform the necessary repair to get your heat back on safely and quickly.

Can a hot water recirculation pump help if my boiler is working but my hot water is slow?

Absolutely. While your boiler heats the water, a recirculation pump solves the common problem of waiting for hot water to reach distant faucets or showers. It keeps hot water moving through your pipes so it's ready when you need it. This is especially helpful in larger Southwick homes. We can install a new, efficient pump or repair your existing one, complementing your boiler's performance to deliver instant hot water and reduce water waste.

Should I repair or replace my old water heater, especially before winter?

It depends on the age, condition, and efficiency of your unit. If it's over 10-12 years old, frequently needs repairs, or isn't meeting your household's hot water demand, replacement is often more cost-effective. A new, energy-efficient model provides reliable hot water and can lower energy bills. Before the cold weather hits, we recommend a professional inspection. We'll assess your current system, explain your options, and handle a safe installation if needed, ensuring you're prepared for the season.
