Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between a boiler and water heater?
Many homeowners aren’t sure about the difference between boilers and water heaters. They look similar but have different purposes:
- Water heaters heat potable water for personal use, such as washing dishes, showering, bathing, drinking, and cooking.
- Boilers heat non-potable water and distribute the water vapor throughout the home through radiators or baseboard heating to provide even, reliable heat.
Are boilers efficient?
Yes, but your boiler’s efficiency largely depends on the type of fuel source it uses. ENERGY STAR®-certified boilers must meet these efficiency requirements:
- Natural gas boilers: 90% AFUE or greater
- Oil boilers: 87% AFUE or greater
- Electric boilers: 95% or greater
What’s the best boiler temperature?
The optimal boiler temperature is between 140 and 150 degrees Fahrenheit. This range will keep your home sufficiently warm and your system running optimally.
If your boiler temperature is too low, you risk bacteria growth in the water. If it’s too high, you risk your boiler overheating, which can lead to leaks and breakdowns.
What is boiler kettling?
Boiler kettling refers to the whistling, popping, and bubbling sounds that can come from a boiler with these issues:
- Leaks: If you hear boiler kettling, first check for leaks. If you notice one, schedule a professional boiler repair immediately.
- Overheating: As boilers age, they tend to have problems with overheating and kettling. If your system is approaching the end of its lifespan, it’s time for a boiler replacement.
- Limescale buildup: If you have hard water, your boiler can have a problem with limescale buildup on its heat exchanger. Over time, this will cause water restriction and overheating. You may need to replace your boiler’s heat exchanger to resolve this. You should also consider installing a whole-home water softener to mitigate the effects of hard water.
