Emergency Boiler Repair

When your boiler goes down unexpectedly, there’s really only one strategy you can pursue – get it up and running again as quickly as possible.

24/7 Emergency Response

When you call Bay City Boiler, day or night, you’ll be connected with an emergency boiler repair coordinator, not just an answering service. Your service coordinator will help you determine what problem your boiler system may be experiencing and arrange for a service visit as soon as possible, often the same day.

Common Emergency Boiler Repair Issues

Regularly-scheduled preventative maintenance for your boiler will help keep your boiler in good condition, eliminating the chance of common failures. However, problems can still arise. Common boiler failures that lead to emergency boiler repair calls:

• Low-water alarm – modern boiler controls will shut down your hot water or steam boiler when the water level drops below a programmed threshold. This safeguard protects the boiler from overheating. Our emergency boiler repair technicians are familiar with many controllers and with this issue. The solution is to restore the recommended water level, reset the alarm, and verify proper operation.
• Flame failure – changes in season alter the ambient air temperature and moisture, which affect burner combustion. This can lead to flame failure, as well as simply inefficient use of fuel. Our technicians are trained to identify and correct flame problems and resolve them through combustion tuning.
