Low-Water Cutoff Service in Valley Park, MO

The low-water cutoff shuts the burner off if water in the boiler drops too low. Firing a dry boiler can crack it, so this safety device needs to work every time.

There are two common types. Float type cutoffs on steam boilers need regular blowdown: you open the drain on the cutoff while the boiler runs to flush sediment out of the float chamber. Probe type cutoffs need the probe pulled and cleaned, since scale on the probe can fool it.

On hot water systems, a low-water cutoff often appears where the boiler sits above the radiation, and it trips when a leak or an air pocket drops the level.

Reliable Boiler Service connects Valley Park, MO homeowners with technicians who test the cutoff by lowering the water and watching the burner stop, clean or replace probes and floats, and show you how to do the blowdown yourself.

Call Reliable Boiler Service at (866) 456-6311 for low-water cutoff service.

Low-Water Cutoff Service FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Low-Water Cutoff Service

Questions we hear most often about Low-Water Cutoff Service in Valley Park, MO.

Talk to a real person
What pressure should my boiler run at in Valley Park, MO?
Most residential hot water boilers sit around 12 to 15 psi when cold and stay under 30 psi when hot. Steam boilers are different and run at a fraction of a pound.
Why is the relief valve on my boiler dripping?
A relief valve that drips or opens near 30 psi usually means a waterlogged expansion tank or a fill valve letting too much water in. Replacing the valve alone rarely fixes it.
How long does a boiler last?
Cast iron boilers often run 20 to 30 years with yearly service. Wall-hung condensing boilers tend to have a shorter life and depend more on regular maintenance.
How often should a boiler be serviced?
Once a year, ideally before the heating season. Steam boilers with a float type low-water cutoff also need regular blowdown through the winter.
Can I convert my oil boiler to gas in Valley Park, MO?
If gas service is available on your street, yes. The job includes a new boiler, a properly sized gas line, a vent or chimney liner, and removal or abandonment of the oil tank.
