How our NATE-certified technicians deliver quality boiler repair results from start to finish.
Our Union 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.
We use a combustion analyzer to measure flue gas temperature, CO levels, O2 percentage, and stack draft. These readings tell us if the burner is firing efficiently or if the heat exchanger, burner assembly, or gas valve needs attention.
KIC Refrigeration repairs boilers in Union, OH with the correct parts and procedures. We match components to your specific boiler model and BTU input rating, torque all gas connections to spec, leak-test with gas detector soap, and verify the repair restores proper operation and efficiency.
Our Union 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.
Transparent answers about boiler repair from our certified technicians.
Boiler repair in Union 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 Union property so you can make an informed decision.
Yes. KIC Refrigeration provides 24/7 emergency boiler repair throughout Union and surrounding Ohio communities every day of the year. A failed boiler in cold weather is a serious emergency — indoor temperatures can drop rapidly, putting water pipes at risk of freezing and bursting within hours. Frozen pipes cause thousands of dollars in water damage when they thaw. Our emergency crews are dispatched with the most commonly needed boiler parts — igniters, thermocouples, circulator pumps, zone valves, and control modules — to restore heat at your Union property as quickly as possible. Call our emergency line and we will have a technician on the way immediately.
Most boiler repairs in Union take 1 to 3 hours during a single service visit. Circulator pump and zone valve replacements are typically completed in 1.5 to 2 hours including system draining and refilling. Aquastat and control board replacements take 1 to 2 hours. Gas valve replacement takes 1 to 2 hours plus a combustion analysis to verify proper operation. Heat exchanger replacement is the most time-intensive job at 4 to 8 hours depending on whether the boiler has cast iron sections or a sealed stainless steel exchanger. KIC Refrigeration provides an accurate time estimate before starting work at your Union property so you can plan accordingly.
The repair-versus-replace decision depends on your boiler age, AFUE efficiency rating, and the cost of the current repair. If the boiler is under 15 years old and the repair is under $2,000, repairing usually makes financial sense. Cast iron boilers over 25 to 30 years old with cracked sections, or standard-efficiency units with AFUE ratings below 80 percent, are typically better replaced with a new high-efficiency condensing boiler rated 90 to 98 percent AFUE. A condensing boiler extracts latent heat from flue gases that older boilers waste up the chimney, saving 15 to 20 percent on annual fuel costs. KIC Refrigeration provides honest repair-versus-replace assessments for Union homeowners based on equipment condition rather than sales targets.
