Steam boilers work by way of converting water into steam and the heat is
applied for various heating needs. Steam boilers can be difficult to
install and thus you will need a qualified gas engineer in Surrey or
professional
\href{http://www.btu-installation.com/service/heating-repair-services}{Surrey
heating services} to minimise the associated dangers and problems.

The reason steam boilers are more dangerous to use than hot water
boilers is because they are kept at much higher pressures and
temperatures. First, the pressure build up brings the risk of explosion
and second, they can be a source of serious burns due to the high
temperatures involved. Thus, gas engineers in Surrey must include
fail-safes in each steam heating system to prevent dangerous situations.
If your boiler is already installed and you suspect that something could
be wrong, it is advisable to call professional Surrey heating services
to analyse and check for faults in these systems and fix those faults.

There is also a tendency for many people to prefer hot water systems
than steam heating systems. However, gas engineers in Surrey will advise
that this could just be a waste of money fuelled by a belief that steam
systems are less efficient than water systems but this is not complete
truth. Instead of incurring large amount of money in buying a completely
new system, you should target at improving efficiency. For instance,
professional heating systems can actually improve this by way of
enhancing insulation. If you insist on making a replacement, then we
advise that you should compare the two options and if possible, get some
advice from a
\href{http://edmudauy.wixsite.com/btu-installation/single-post/2017/08/04/Steam-boilers-challenges-and-coping}{gas
engineer in Surrey} or professional heating services in Surrey.

Another problem or challenge with these systems is that they are
accompanied with loud banging noises and unpleasant hammering. This is
one reason many homeowners want to switch over to hot water systems.
However, these problems can be corrected by an engineer. For instance,
banging noises are as a result of improper angling of steam lines,
setting the steam pressure too high and failure of steam traps. Another
reason is that the system lines could be clogged.

Proper maintenance is the key to living with steam boilers. For
instance, there is a set of traps at each of the radiators to help
relieve pressure. You need to replace or maintain these traps before
they fail - they are set to fail after every six years-but they need
constant checking to ensure they are working optimally. Improper
maintenance or lack of maintenance might reduce the life of the traps or
other components in the boiler. To check these traps, you will need to
check and top-off water levels periodically. You also need to ensure
that the main pressure relief is in working order.

Besides, you need to ensure that such maintenance is done by a qualified
personnel who will not cause additional flaws in the system.

This maintenance will help keep the system efficient, clean and safe.
