Understanding common boiler problems can help you identify when it’s time to call a professional. At Delponte, our certified technicians are experts in diagnosing and fixing a wide range of boiler issues, ensuring your system runs efficiently and reliably, regardless of the boiler type.
Loss of Pressure
A common boiler problem is a drop in system pressure. This can be indicated by a pressure gauge on your boiler reading below the recommended level (usually between 1 and 1.5 bar when cold).
Causes:
- Water leaks: Even small leaks in the system can cause a pressure drop over time.
- Faulty pressure relief valve: If the valve is not sealing correctly, it can release pressure.
- Bleeding radiators: While necessary for efficient heating, excessive bleeding can lead to a pressure drop.
Delponte Solution:
Our technicians will carefully check your heating system for leaks. They will test the pressure relief valve and adjust the boiler pressure to the right level. We’ll identify and repair any leaks to prevent future pressure loss.
No Heat or Hot Water
This is one of the most frustrating boiler issues. If your boiler isn’t providing heat or hot water, it could be due to several reasons.
Causes:
- Thermostat issues: The thermostat might be set incorrectly, or it could be faulty.
- Pilot light (for older boilers): The pilot light may have gone out.
- Frozen condensate pipe: In condensing boilers, the condensate pipe can freeze when it’s cold. This blocks the flow of acidic wastewater.
- Pump failure: The circulating pump might not be effectively moving hot water through the system.
- Valve issues: Closed or faulty valves can prevent water flow.
Delponte Solution:
Our team will carefully find the main problem. We will check your thermostat and pilot light. We will also thaw frozen pipes and replace broken pumps and valves. We have the expertise to get your heat and hot water back on quickly.

Strange Noises (Kettling, Gurgling, Whistling)
Unusual noises coming from your boiler are often indicators of underlying problems.
Causes:
- Kettling: This term sounds like a boiling kettle. It often happens when limescale or sludge builds up in the heat exchanger. This build-up restricts water flow.
- Gurgling: Can indicate air in the system or a partially blocked condensate pipe.
- Whistling/Humming: Could be due to a faulty pump or an imbalance in water pressure.
Delponte Solution:
We do power flushing to get rid of limescale and sludge. We also bleed radiators to remove trapped air. Additionally, we check and replace broken parts like pumps. This helps stop strange noises and brings back quiet operation.
Delponte Expertise: All Boiler Types
At Delponte, our skilled and certified technicians can fix problems with all major types of boilers, including:
- Combi Boilers: Known for providing instant hot water on demand without a separate hot water tank.
- System Boilers: Need a hot water storage cylinder but do not require a cold water tank. They are a good choice for homes with multiple bathrooms.
- Regular/Conventional Boilers: This is the traditional option. It needs a hot water cylinder and a cold water storage tank in the loft.
- Condensing Boilers: Highly efficient boilers that recover heat from flue gases.
- Electric Boilers: A popular choice where gas is not available.
No matter how old your boiler is, Delponte technicians can help. They have the skills and tools to find and fix most problems quickly and well. Contact us today for reliable boiler repair and maintenance services!
