Boiler Not Heating in Chicago, IL

When the boiler runs but the house stays cold, the problem is usually on the water side. When the boiler is silent, it is usually power, gas or ignition.

Start with the easy checks. Is the thermostat calling for heat, with fresh batteries? Is the service switch at the top of the basement stairs on? Is the pressure gauge in the normal range, around 12 to 15 psi on most hot water systems? A low reading can trip the low-water cutoff and stop the burner.

Reliable Boiler Service connects Chicago, IL homeowners with technicians who trace the rest: a circulator that hums but does not spin, a zone valve stuck closed, air trapped at the high point of a loop, or one cold zone that points to a thermostat wire.

If only the upstairs is cold, air in the system is the likely cause. If every zone is cold, look at the boiler itself.

Boiler Not Heating FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Boiler Not Heating

Questions we hear most often about Boiler Not Heating in Chicago, IL.

Talk to a real person
What pressure should my boiler run at in Chicago, IL?
Most residential hot water boilers sit around 12 to 15 psi when cold and stay under 30 psi when hot. Steam boilers are different and run at a fraction of a pound.
Should I repair or replace my boiler?
Repair makes sense for parts like igniters, circulators and zone valves. A cracked section, a leaking heat exchanger or a boiler where parts are no longer made usually points to replacement.
Is a combi boiler a good fit for my home in Chicago, IL?
A combi suits homes with one or two bathrooms and a gas line big enough for its hot water demand. Larger households often do better with a heat-only boiler and an indirect tank.
Do condensing boilers work with old cast iron radiators?
They can, but they only condense when return water comes back cool. Outdoor reset control and properly sized radiators make the difference.
Why does my steam heat bang and hammer?
Banging usually comes from condensate trapped in a pipe that lost its pitch or a radiator tilted the wrong way. A pressuretrol set too high makes it worse.
