A clear, step-by-step approach to every boiler repair project we take on.
Our St. Gabriel technician begins with a comprehensive safety inspection — testing the pressure relief valve, low-water cutoff, high-limit control, gas valve operation, and flue draft. We check boiler pressure, inspect the expansion tank, and look for signs of corrosion, leaks, and scale buildup.
KIC Refrigeration diagnoses boiler problems in St. Gabriel, LA using combustion analysis data. We measure flue gas CO below 100 PPM air-free, verify oxygen levels between 4 and 8 percent, check that stack temperature is within 100 to 200 degrees of supply water temperature, and calculate AFUE to identify efficiency losses.
We replace the failed component — circulator pump, expansion tank, zone valve, aquastat, gas valve, ignitor, or heat exchanger section — using parts rated for your boiler make, model, and BTU capacity.
Our St. Gabriel crew pressurizes the boiler system to 15 to 20 PSI, inspects every fitting and valve for leaks, bleeds air from all zone circuits, and runs the boiler through a full cycle — verifying ignition, flame signal, circulator operation, and temperature rise to confirm the repair.
Common questions about boiler repair costs, timelines, and what to expect.
Boiler repair in St. Gabriel typically costs $200 to $700 for common component failures like thermocouples, aquastats, zone valves, circulator pumps, and expansion tanks. Ignition control module or gas valve replacement runs $300 to $800 depending on the boiler manufacturer. Heat exchanger replacement is the most expensive repair at $1,500 to $4,000, varying by boiler type — cast iron sectional, copper fin tube, or stainless steel condensing — and BTU input rating. KIC Refrigeration provides a detailed written estimate with itemized parts and labor costs before beginning any boiler repair at your St. Gabriel property so you can make an informed decision.
