Water Leaks Caused By Pressure
The most commonplace boilers in most NYC properties are forced hot water or steam systems. Heating systems work by pumping hot water around a series of pipes. As a result, pipes can erode and start to leak over time. Small leaks can repaired or temporarily blocked but excessive leakage is a scene of potentially damaged or broken pipes.
Boiler Seals
The seals in boiler systems are rubber rings that “seal” connection points between pipes. Over prolonged periods, these seals can loosen, harden, or deteriorate, eventually allowing water to leak. Damaged seals are a very common reason homeowners request Burner or Boiler Water Leaks Repair services So, if you begin to notice puddles or pools of water with a bad odour gathering around your heater or where the pipes run around your property or outside the property- it’s time to make that call and get your boiler or burner repaired.
Cracks In The Heating System Due To Fatigue
Continuous contraction and expansion from years of warming and cooling the system can cause cracks in the actual bodywork itself which will trigger water leaks. In this scenario, the heater will usually be beyond repair and need replacing.
Some Reasons For A Leaking Furnace
