Signs Your Boiler Needs Repair
Recognizing the early warning signs of a malfunctioning boiler can save you money and prevent system failure.
Common Boiler Problems Include:
- No Heat or Hot Water – Could be caused by a thermostat failure, ignition issue, or faulty pump.
- Strange Noises – Banging, gurgling, or whistling sounds may indicate air in the system or a failing component.
- Leaks Around the Boiler – Water pooling near your unit could mean a damaged valve, seal, or internal issue.
- Low Boiler Pressure – Often due to a leak or pressure valve problem, affecting heating efficiency.
- Pilot Light Keeps Going Out – A faulty thermocouple, gas supply issue, or airflow problem could be the cause.
- Foul Odors – A gas smell near your boiler is an emergency—shut off the system and call us immediately.
- Yellow Flame Instead of Blue – This indicates incomplete combustion, which can be dangerous.

A repeat customer here and as always, the experience was a great one. Experienced technician who knows their trade and is very efficient and courteous.
We had our new system installed by Jon Le. When built our house in 2021. They installed that one. So 24 years later when we needed a new system , there was no question. Their technicians are, friendly and knowledgeable. They serviced our system the first 24 years and we will definitely have them service our new one. Thank you for you wonderful service!!
I've depended on the services of JonLe Heating & Cooling for the past 5 years, and remain a happy customer. Their staff and technicians have always been kind, courteous, and thorough in their work. I'm grateful for the services they offer, and will continue to call on them. Thanks, JonLe!
We recently had our sump pump replaced by The Waterworks, and I couldn't be happier with the service. Our technician, Kameron Gates, was professional, courteous, and punctual from start to finish. He arrived on time, wore shoe covers before entering our home, and took great care to keep everything clean throughout the job. Kameron performed a thorough inspection, explained the condition of our old sump pump, and replaced it with a new one. What really stood out was his attention to detail and willingness to answer every question we had. He clearly explained the work being done and made sure we understood everything before he left. After the installation, he cleaned the work area thoroughly and left everything in excellent condition.
Jonle is always there when we need them, on time, professional, and clean. Recently Jason got our thermostat back online and took the time to explain itt to me.
We needed fire hydrant repair. For privately owned hydrants. I have used them multiple times they are always absolutely the best.
They were able to get me in and taken care of very ppromptly. Definitely the best service I have had done. Highly recommend.
I've used Waterworks 5 times now, and will again when I need plumbing work. Most recently, I needed a leak under a bathroom sink fixed and I also needed a new faucet. Todd Shepherd did a fantastic job! Very happy.
We have used Waterworks Plumbing for multiple commercial repairs and they have always done a tremendous job!
Mr Victor Gonzalez was awesome he did a great job and taking the time to explain everything
The service person who came was very kind and on time. I was hoping there was record of what electrician they had come out to install the outlet for my sump pump they installed 6 years ago, but they said they don't keep records that long ago which was unfortunate, since it the faulty outlet that stopped the sump pump from working which then caused my basement to flood.
Great service! The technician, Noah Pettit, showed up on time, explained what he was going to do, and then did it in a thoroughly professional manner. He was very friendly and courteous throughout.
Our technician, Wade, was exceptionally professional and knowledgeable. Despite having to work in a very tight space, he took extra care and spent additional time ensuring that nothing was damaged. His attention to detail and commitment to quality were greatly appreciated.
We have used JonLe for a very long time, over 20 years. Everyone has been friendly and very helpful. Will Ross was our technician this time. He was punctual and notified us that he was on his way. He answered our questions and did a great job with our A/C maintenance service. Thank you, Will!
I had a really positive experience with Water Works. They are one of the few places which will take Sunday calls. I called and the person I spoke to was professional. The technician Luke was out the next morning. The clog was cleared promptly. Thanks!
Mr. Sheppard did a FANTASTIC job. He took his time, was happy, friendly and respectful he explained what he was doing, explained our humidifier, air cleaner and thermostat (we just moved into a new home and no papers were left.) We would like to have him our system in the spring.
Our service tech Will did a great job. He was thorough and explained what he was doing
Excellent service; efficient with good explanation with digital photo of completed cleaning.
Fast and very thorough! The technician explained everything and let me know exactly what was going on the whole time.
Jon Le has been our go-to for annual AC/heating maintenance. Always quick to schedule and they listen to our concerns when we do have them.
I called this morning (Sunday) no doubt and they were courteous and on time and the tech guy pointed out the problems within seconds and will be back Tuesday hopefully to fix the problem. Thanks
Mat BALL CAME OUT TO GIVE US AN IDEA OF HOW wATERWORKS COULD FIX OUR PROBLEM. hE WAS VERY NICE AND HELPFUL. WE AE CONSIDERING THE PLANS HE OFFERED US.
Jordan called before he got here, went right to work, cleared the drain̈, put everything back together, tested and left work space clean. Very nice young man.
Excellent service and responded to our service call less than four hours and technician was very professional. We had a clogged tub drain
I never hesitate to call The Waterworks for any of my downspout, drainage, or other needs. They’re professional, honest, and find the most efficient solution. Today, Travis was out to my house, listened to my concerns, took the time to thoroughly investigate the possible causes. He even got on a ladder to check my very full gutter!! One problem solved—just like that! What a gentleman!! I’m so grateful.
Jordan came out, scoped the downspout pipes that were clogged up, removed a bunch of roots and other debris, and also cleaned out the rock-filter box by the road that the pipes dump the water into. (Water had been pouring over our gutters during rains so we assumed the pipes were plugged up before calling Waterworks.) He did a great job and is a super nice young man! 👏👏
We had Mark here for a/c maintenance and he was very knowledgeable about what we need to do to keep our 27 year old a/c running as long as possible. We appreciate his sharing his knowledge to help us limp our system along.
Jonle Heating & Cooling is a company you can trust! All my experiences with the have been positive. Friendly, knowledgeable technicians who know their stuff. I am on a maintenance program that service my heating and cooling systems. They keep them in top shape.
Jason was very friendly and knowledgeable. He shared his findings in a way that was easy to understand and had no problem explaining anything I couldn't. His recommendations seemed based on what was best for my home and my family!
Always on time and courteous. They always explain what exactly they do or what the problem is in laymen’s terms so I understand my options.
The servicemen did a great job. He found my leak when I had another service out here that did not find it so thank you thank you thank you
Todd was my technician and he did an excellent job. I needed my sink unclogged today and nobody was able to help me except Waterworks. I’ve used this company for over 35 years in my place of business and always trusted their reliability and quality of work.
I’ve used Waterworks a few times now and have always had excellent service, problems fixed quickly and prices have always been reasonable. When I have plumbing issues Waterworks is the first company I call. John was out today to fix and replace our sump pump and did a great job!
Easy to schedule service, but price is high. It seemed like the tech made up the price on the spot. Works was well done. Great in a pinch but I would shop around if there is time.
The service man was very prompt, polite professional, and got the job done!
I called in a panick with water in my basement and the technician was out to my house in less than 2 hours on a holiday weekend.
Matt Sunnenberg did a wonderful job diagnosing the problem with our AC. He knew what the issue was before opening the compartment to show me the AC coil unit. 19 years old and the rust and decay of the unit was amassing to see. Matt explained all of our options and the cost involved. His advice to replace all of the AC components made the most sense and we felt most confident in his recommendation. Because of the delay in getting the new AC unit ordered and installed, Matt did us a big favor by adding enough Freon to our existing unit in order to keep the house cool temporarily. Thank you, Mike
