What you get from Bonfe:
Your boiler works hard to keep your home comfortable, especially during harsh Minnesota winters. Even the best systems need attention from time to time. Recognizing the signs of trouble early can save you from costly repairs or unexpected breakdowns. At Bonfe, we’re here to help Twin Cities homeowners with fast, efficient service 7 days a week. Here are the most common signs your boiler may need professional repair:
A leaking boiler is a clear signal that something is wrong. Left unchecked, boiler leaks can lead to serious damage, not only to your boiler but to your pipes and home. If you notice any water pooling around your boiler, don’t wait. Call Bonfe right away.
Does your home take longer than usual to warm up? Inconsistent heating often points to circulation issues or other underlying problems within your boiler. This inconvenience can worsen over time, so schedule an inspection with Bonfe to get your boiler back to peak performance quickly and efficiently.
If your boiler keeps turning on and off randomly or struggles to produce heat after you switch it on, it’s likely a sign of an electrical or mechanical issue. Our expert technicians can quickly diagnose and resolve power-related problems to restore your system’s reliability.
Notice a strange, metallic, or sulfur-like smell near your boiler? This could indicate a gas leak or, worse, a carbon monoxide issue. Carbon monoxide is odorless, but gas suppliers often add a sulfur scent as a safety measure. If you suspect a gas leak, leave your home immediately and call Bonfe for emergency assistance. Your safety is our top priority.
Boilers should run quietly. Loud clanging, banging, or whistling noises usually mean there’s a problem, such as a broken heater pump, a damaged heat exchanger, or a blockage. Don’t ignore these sounds—let Bonfe’s experts address the issue before it escalates.
Older boilers are more prone to wear and tear. If your boiler is nearing the end of its lifespan and showing signs of trouble, it’s time to consider repairs or even replacement. Our team can guide you through your options and ensure your home stays comfortable and energy-efficient.
First, check your thermostat, power supply, and pilot light to rule out minor issues. If the problem persists, call Bonfe right away. Our experienced technicians provide fast, reliable service throughout the Twin Cities Metro, 7 days a week, with 24-hour emergency services.
A boiler might stop heating due to:
The root cause isn’t always obvious, which is why Bonfe’s experienced team is here to diagnose and fix the issue promptly.
Banging noises, also called “kettling,” often indicate:
If ignored, these issues reduce efficiency and could lead to more significant problems. Bonfe’s technicians can identify the cause and provide fast, effective solutions.
The cost of boiler repair depends on several factors, including the type of repair, the age of the system, and the specific issue. At Bonfe, we provide transparent, up-front pricing tailored to your boiler’s needs.
To keep your boiler running efficiently, we recommend scheduling professional maintenance once a year. Regular tune-ups help prevent costly repairs, improve energy efficiency, and ensure reliable performance during the coldest months. Bonfe offers membership plans that make regular maintenance easy, and offer several additional perks.
Boilers typically last 20-25 years, but Minnesota’s freezing winters can accelerate wear and tear. Proper maintenance can extend the lifespan of your system. If your boiler is aging and frequently needs repairs, Bonfe can help you decide whether repair or replacement is the best option for your home.
