Pilot Light and Ignition Repair in Walhalla, SC

Older boilers run a standing pilot with a thermocouple, which makes the small voltage the gas valve needs to stay open. A pilot that lights and then goes out when you let go of the knob is usually a weak thermocouple.

Newer boilers use a hot surface igniter or spark ignition, followed by a flame sensor that proves the burner lit. A sensor coated in oxide reads too low and the control shuts the gas off after a few seconds. You see the burner light, then die, then try again until the boiler locks out.

Reliable Boiler Service connects Walhalla, SC homeowners with technicians who test these parts with a meter rather than swapping them at random: thermocouple millivolts, flame signal microamps, igniter resistance, gas pressure at the valve.

Smell gas? Leave the house and call your gas utility from outside first.

Pilot Light And Ignition Repair FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Pilot Light and Ignition Repair

Questions we hear most often about Pilot Light and Ignition Repair in Walhalla, SC.

Talk to a real person
Is a combi boiler a good fit for my home in Walhalla, SC?
A combi suits homes with one or two bathrooms and a gas line big enough for its hot water demand. Larger households often do better with a heat-only boiler and an indirect tank.
Why are my radiators cold at the top?
Air is trapped in them. Bleed each radiator with a radiator key until water runs steadily, then check the boiler pressure and top it up if needed.
Why does my steam heat bang and hammer?
Banging usually comes from condensate trapped in a pipe that lost its pitch or a radiator tilted the wrong way. A pressuretrol set too high makes it worse.
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.
My boiler is running but the house is cold. What should I check?
Look at the pressure gauge, listen for the circulator pump, and feel the pipes leaving the boiler. Hot boiler with cold pipes usually means a pump or zone valve problem.
