THE PROBLEM: An aging natural gas boiler had developed a small gas leak, with visible rust and dripping adding to the customer’s concerns about future repairs. Frequent short cycling and a consistently cold back bedroom made it clear that the heating system needed more than a simple equipment swap.

THE SOLUTION: A heat load calculation identified that the existing boiler was significantly oversized. The customer chose a properly sized replacement boiler, new near-boiler piping and a new circulator pump to address unnecessary cycling and circulation problems.
