Routine boiler maintenance ensures your system runs safely, efficiently, and reliably all winter long.
At BPM Heating, Cooling & Plumbing, we provide professional boiler tune-ups for gas, oil, steam, and hydronic systems. Whether your home uses radiators, baseboard heat, or in-floor radiant heating, we help protect your investment with preventive care that avoids costly breakdowns and extends the life of your system.
Why Boiler Maintenance Matters
Boilers are long-lasting systems, but they still need annual maintenance to:
- Maximize energy efficiency
- Prevent leaks, carbon monoxide, and combustion hazards
- Catch small issues before they turn into expensive repairs
- Ensure even, consistent heat throughout your home
- Maintain manufacturer warranties
Neglecting service can lead to scale buildup, corrosion, and pressure issues that shorten system life and compromise comfort.
What We Do During a Boiler Tune-Up
Our comprehensive boiler maintenance service includes:
- Inspecting the heat exchanger for cracks, scale, or corrosion
- Testing combustion quality, gas pressure, and draft
- Cleaning burner assembly and ignition components
- Checking and adjusting expansion tank and system pressure
- Flushing or bleeding air from the system
- Testing safety controls (pressure relief valve, low-water cutoff, etc.)
- Verifying zone valve and circulator pump operation
- Checking flue pipe, venting, and condensate drain (if applicable)
- Inspecting electrical connections and thermostat functionality
We service both standard and high-efficiency condensing boilers and tailor our tune-up based on your system type.
Maintenance for Gas, Oil & Electric Boilers
Every fuel type has its own unique needs:
- Gas Boilers – We test flame sensors, gas valves, ignition controls, and inspect for safe combustion.
- Oil Boilers – We replace oil filters, clean burners and nozzles, and check draft and combustion air.
- Electric Boilers – We inspect and test heating elements, relays, sequencers, and control boards.
- Steam Boilers – We check water level, pressuretrol settings, flush low-water cutoff, and clean sight glass.
We also install boilers for homeowners – give us a call for a free quote.
