Introduction

Winter in Burnley can be tough — and the last thing you want is a boiler breakdown on the coldest day of the year. Spotting the early warning signs of boiler trouble can save you time, money, and a whole lot of stress.

Here are 5 key signs your boiler may need repair, and when to call in a professional like Gas tech Plumbers.

1. Strange Noises From Your Boiler

If your boiler is banging, gurgling, or whistling, don’t ignore it. These sounds often point to issues like trapped air, limescale build-up, or failing parts. Left unchecked, small noises can turn into costly repairs.

2. Inconsistent Heating

Do some rooms in your home stay cold while others overheat? Uneven heating usually means your boiler isn’t working efficiently. It could be a circulation issue or a sign that your system needs flushing.

3. Frequent Resetting

If you’re constantly resetting your boiler to get it running, that’s a red flag. A healthy boiler should run reliably without constant attention. This could signal deeper mechanical or electrical problems.

4. Rising Energy Bills

Noticed your gas bill creeping up even though your usage hasn’t changed? An inefficient boiler burns more fuel to produce the same heat. A repair now could save you money long-term.

5. Water Leaks Around the Boiler

Any puddles or dampness near your boiler should be taken seriously. Leaks can damage your home and indicate failing seals or valves inside the unit.

✅ What To Do If You Spot These Signs

If you’ve noticed any of the above warning signals, it’s best to act fast. Ignoring boiler issues can lead to complete breakdowns — usually at the worst possible time.
