Boiler Not Heating? Check This First

Four quick checks before you call. Sometimes the fix takes a minute.

1

Thermostat

Make sure it's set to heat and a few degrees above room temperature. If the screen is blank, replace the batteries.

2

Power Switch & Breaker

Boilers have a service switch near the unit that looks like a light switch. Check that it's on, then check the breaker.

3

Pressure Gauge

Most home boilers sit at 12–15 psi when cold. Much lower or higher means it's time for a technician.

4

Propane or Oil Level

Check the tank gauge. On an oil boiler, don't press the burner reset more than once.

Smell gas or propane?

Leave the house right away. Call Enbridge Gas or your propane supplier from outside, and don't use switches or phones indoors.

Carbon monoxide alarm going off?

Get everyone outside, including pets, and call 911 from outside.

Still no heat? In a cold snap, an unheated house can freeze pipes overnight, so don't wait.

Boiler Repair

We find the part that failed and fix it on the first visit whenever we can, on gas, propane and oil boilers.

1

Ignition & Flame Sensor

A worn igniter or dirty flame sensor is the top reason a boiler tries to fire, then shuts off. On oil boilers, we replace the nozzle, filter and electrodes.

2

Circulator Pump

If the boiler runs but the baseboards or radiators stay cold, the pump that moves hot water through the house may have failed.

3

Pressure, Expansion Tank & Relief Valve

Pressure that keeps climbing until the relief valve drips usually points to a failed expansion tank or fill valve.

4

Leaks & Error Codes

We read the fault code on modern boilers and trace leaks from fittings, valves or the heat exchanger.

When Repair Isn't Worth It

A boiler 15–20 years old with a leaking heat exchanger or one breakdown after another is usually better replaced. See boiler replacement options.

Annual Boiler Service

One visit a year keeps your boiler efficient, safe and ready for winter.

What's Included

  • Inspect and clean the burner and heat exchanger
  • Test the igniter and flame sensor
  • Check pressure, expansion tank and relief valve
  • Test the circulator pump and controls
  • Inspect the venting and test for carbon monoxide
  • Clean the condensate trap on high-efficiency models
  • Replace the nozzle and filter on oil boilers
  • Check fittings and valves for leaks

Lower Fuel Bills

A clean burner and heat exchanger use less gas, propane or oil for the same heat.

Carbon Monoxide Safety

We check the venting and combustion so exhaust leaves the house. Ontario requires a working CO alarm outside sleeping areas in homes with a fuel-burning appliance.

Keeps Your Warranty Valid

Many boiler manufacturers require yearly service by a qualified technician to honour the warranty.

Best time to book: early fall, before the first cold snap.

Propane & Oil Boilers on Rural Properties

Many farms and hamlets across the municipality aren't on a natural gas line, so they heat with propane or oil. We service both.

Propane Boilers

Common on farms and in hamlets beyond the gas line. A propane boiler works like a natural gas one, with its own regulator and burner settings.

What we fix most

  • Frozen or failing regulators
  • Lockouts after the tank runs low
  • Igniter and flame sensor faults

Oil-Fired Boilers

Still heating plenty of older farmhouses. On an oil boiler, a clean nozzle and filter matter more than on any other type.

What we fix most

  • Clogged nozzles and oil filters
  • Sludge in the oil line
  • Soot build-up and burner lockouts

Switching Fuels

An aging oil boiler can be replaced with a high-efficiency propane boiler, or a natural gas model if a gas line reaches your property.

Why homeowners switch

  • Less yearly maintenance
  • Higher efficiency, lower fuel use
  • No oil delivery to schedule

Ran out of propane? Your supplier has to leak-test the system before it's refilled and relit. Once they have, we can get the boiler running again.

Boiler Replacement & Installation

When repair stops making sense, we size and install a new boiler for your home, on natural gas or propane.

New high-efficiency boiler with copper piping

Combi Boilers

Heats your home and your tap water in one wall-mounted unit, so the separate hot water tank can go.

  • Frees up basement space
  • Hot water on demand
  • One unit to service each year

Best for: smaller homes with one or two bathrooms

High-Efficiency Condensing Boilers

Captures heat from the exhaust that older boilers send up the chimney, so far less fuel goes to waste.

  • Up to 95% efficient
  • Quiet, modulating burner
  • Pairs with a separate hot water tank

Best for: larger homes and in-floor heating

What Chatham-Kent Homeowners Say About Our Boiler Repair & Installation

Miriam K.

★★★★★
Emergency Boiler Repair — Chatham

Our boiler stopped heating the radiators during a cold January night. NeoFlow inspected the unit the next morning and traced the problem to a faulty ignition component. The plumber replaced the part and tested the heating system before leaving. The house was warm again that afternoon.

★★★★★
Boiler Pressure Problem — Wallaceburg

The pressure on our hot water boiler kept climbing whenever the heating came on, and the relief valve occasionally dripped. The technician checked the expansion tank and found it had failed. After replacing the tank and checking the system pressure, everything operated within the normal range again.

★★★★★
Uneven Radiator Heating — Tilbury

A couple of radiators upstairs stayed lukewarm while the rest of our house heated normally. NeoFlow checked the boiler and circulation, then found trapped air and an issue with the system balancing. The plumber corrected both and tested the radiators. It was a relief to solve the problem without replacing the boiler.

New Condensing Boiler Installation — Blenheim

We decided to replace our aging gas boiler before another winter. The NeoFlow team explained the options and helped us select a suitable condensing model for our radiator system. They removed the old equipment, installed the new boiler and checked the venting and heating operation. The whole installation was well organized.

★★★★★
Boiler Ignition Troubleshooting — Ridgetown

Our gas boiler would try to start several times before shutting down with an error. Rather than guessing, the technician inspected the ignition system and found a worn electrode. He replaced it, checked the burner operation and watched the boiler complete several heating cycles. No more repeated shutdowns.

★★★★★
Boiler Circulator Pump Replacement — Dresden

The boiler was firing, but hardly any heat reached the radiators in our farmhouse. There was also an unusual humming sound near the circulation pump. NeoFlow diagnosed a failed circulator and replaced it with a suitable unit. The plumber checked flow through the heating zones, and the rooms began warming evenly again.

★★★★★
Annual Boiler Service — Bothwell

We booked a maintenance visit for our wall-mounted condensing boiler after noticing some moisture around the condensate drain. The technician cleaned the drain assembly, inspected the accessible connections and completed the routine service checks. He also explained which warning signs we should watch for during the next heating season.

Combi Boiler Upgrade — Thamesville

We wanted to replace our older boiler and separate water heater with a single combi system. NeoFlow reviewed our heating needs and hot water usage before recommending the equipment. The new unit was installed in our utility room, and the plumber walked us through the controls. Both the radiators and taps were tested before completion.

Boiler FAQ

Why is my boiler losing pressure?

Pressure that keeps dropping usually means a small leak somewhere in the system, a relief valve letting water out, or a failing expansion tank. Topping it up only hides the problem, so have the cause found and fixed.

How often should a boiler be serviced?

Once a year, ideally in early fall before the heating season. Oil boilers need it most, since the nozzle and filter should be replaced every season.

Can a combi boiler replace my water heater?

Often, yes. A combi boiler heats your home and makes hot water on demand, so the separate tank can go. It suits smaller homes best. If several bathrooms run at once, a boiler with a separate water heater may work better.

Should I switch my oil boiler to propane or natural gas?

It depends on what reaches your property and how old your boiler is. Where a gas line is available, natural gas is usually the cheapest to run. On rural properties, propane is the common choice. We'll compare running and installation costs for your home before you decide.

How long does a boiler last?

Most boilers last 15 to 20 years. Well-maintained cast-iron boilers often run longer, while a missed yearly service shortens the life of any boiler.
