The Ultimate Guide to Boiler Problems and How to Fix Them

Boilers are essential to keeping your home warm and your water hot, but when things go wrong, it can be a real headache. Understanding common boiler problems and how to fix them can save you time and stress. At Spa Gas, we specialise in boiler installations, servicing, and repairs, helping homes and businesses across the UK stay comfortable all year round.

Common Boiler Issues and How to Solve Them

1. No Heating or Hot Water

This could be caused by a faulty thermostat, low pressure, or a pilot light that’s gone out.

Our Advice: Check your thermostat settings and pressure gauge. If these don’t resolve the issue, contact us for professional assistance.

2. Boiler Leaks

Leaks are often due to corroded pipes or a faulty pressure valve.

Our Advice: Tighten any loose connections if you’re confident, but if the leak continues, our engineers can quickly identify and fix the problem.

3. Strange Noises

Banging, whistling, or gurgling sounds may indicate trapped air, low pressure, or limescale build-up.

Our Advice: Try bleeding your radiators or schedule a power flush with us to remove limescale and debris from your system.

4. Pilot Light Issues

A faulty thermocouple or debris build-up can cause the pilot light to go out.

Our Advice: Keep the area around the pilot light clean and ensure there are no draughts. Persistent issues? Our boiler maintenance engineers will replace faulty parts for you.

5. Low Boiler Pressure

Leaks or recently bled radiators often result in low pressure.

Our Advice: Re-pressurise your boiler using the manufacturer’s instructions, or reach out to us for a hassle-free fix.
