The first step in troubleshooting a gas fired boiler with a standing pilot light.
 
First things first, if you landed on this page first please follow this link back to the starting page, to read and understand the danger of working on your boiler yourself.

Now before you continue you may need a voltage tester and you will need to know how to use it, if you do not have a voltage meter or you are not sure how to use it, you should stop now and call a professional.

The first question is, do you have heat in any section of your home? If you only have one source of heat in your home (some homes have more then one boiler) and you have heat in one or more sections of your home, this means the boiler is firing but for some reason a section of the home is not getting any heat at all.
Please note: there is a big difference between NO HEAT and LIMITED HEAT. No heat means there is no hot water running through the baseboard or radiators.
Limited heat means you can feel heat on the baseboard or radiator but the room or section of the house is still cold.

If you have heat in any part of your home please click here.
If you do not have any heat, anyplace in your home please click here.
 

 

 
I find that my instructions are often misunderstood, my own brother often misunderstands what I say, if you are not sure about anything please stop and have a professional do this work for you. I want to help you, not cause you harm.
 

 

 
Note: there are so many different combinations of zone valves and circulators, it is not possible for me to cover each and every possible combination, if you need more help or your configuration is not covered in this troubleshooter, please use my open dialog service, it is well worth the fee.
