On your checklist of preparing your home for the winter months, your boiler’s condition should be at the top. A boiler in bad shape can not only cost a lot of money to operate, but it can also do a poor job of heating your home. Although regular maintenance can keep your boiler working effectively and efficiently, around 15 years of use is the recommended time to replace your boiler.

Professional Boiler Replacement For Your Home
5 Signs You Need a New Boiler
If your boiler is exhibiting any of the following signs, it’s probably time to schedule boiler replacement:
- Your boiler is over 15 years old – Even if your boiler seems to be running well, a new boiler might be an energy- and cost-efficient solution to keeping your home warm this winter. Not to mention that at 15 years, your boiler is coming to the end of its expected life span, which means it’s more likely to begin experiencing problems.
- The Energy-Efficiency Rating is lower than an “A” – Boilers are rated from A to G, 90% is an A, and 70% being a G for efficiency. Replacing your boiler when it starts to drop in efficiency rating can save money with long-term energy costs. Here is the Department of Energy’s cost calculator from the Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy to calculate your potential savings.
- Scheduling frequent boiler repair – If it seems like you’re regularly paying to have your boiler repaired, then it’s probably time to cut your losses and to invest in a new boiler.
- Your boiler isn’t working effectively – If your boiler is no longer heating your home efficiently and evenly, then your boiler may need to be replaced. Another indication that an inspection should happen is when there are varying temperatures in your home. We can inspect your boiler to determine if a simple repair can fix this problem, but will recommend you replace if a simple repair is not sustainable for the long term.
- Your heating bills are rising – High heating bills could be a result of an inefficient boiler. While there may be things that can be repaired to improve its efficiency, investing in a new, a more energy-efficient boiler will cut those energy costs substantially.
