Why Is My Boiler Making A Banging Noise?

A banging noise from your boiler, often called "kettling," happens when water boils, steams, and expands. Several issues could cause this:

  • Limescale Buildup: Limescale can restrict water flow, causing it to overheat and boil.
  • Faulty Thermostat: A malfunctioning thermostat may cause the boiler to overheat, leading to kettling.
  • Loose Pipes/Fittings: Loose pipes or fittings can bang against the boiler, causing noise.
  • Water Hammer: Occurs when water rapidly changes direction, creating vibrations and loud noises.
  • Delayed Ignition: If ignition is delayed, it can cause a sudden and forceful ignition.

Other potential causes include a faulty pump, a cracked heat exchanger, ignition problems, and trapped air in the system.

Today, Matt came to my home to perform a boiler service which was installed by him last year. I am thoroughly impressed with his work. Matt is extremely professional and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain what he was doing and ensured everything was working perfectly before he left. Thank you Matt, for your exceptional service. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of boiler installation, maintenance or repair.
