Repairing boilers starts with identifying the type of boiler that is on the premises; whether it’s a water boiler or a steam boiler? The medium for the source of heating may be steam or hot water.
Identifying Your Boiler
Water Boilers have identifying marks such as; Circulation pumps, expansion tanks, FB 38 Bell and Gossett water feeders (Which is either red or gold), other identifying features may be bleeder ports on your radiators and zone valves on the water piping near the boiler. If you have multiple thermostats in your home or business it is safe to say you have a water circulated boiler.
Steam Boilers have identifying marks such as; a low water cut off (the control that you drain your steam boiler, weekly) a glass site glass that shows you were the water level is at, (provided that the site glass is clean and you can see the water level) other simple identifying marks of a steam boiler is steam vents on your radiators as well as steam vents on the condensate return water pipe near the steam boiler.
