From initial contact to final verification — here is how we handle boiler repair.
We inspect the boiler for visible damage, check the pressure gauge and temperature readings, test safety controls including the pressure relief valve and low-water cutoff, and verify the flue is drafting properly before diagnosing the fault.
At your Cheshire property, our technician tests combustion efficiency with a calibrated analyzer. We measure CO parts per million, oxygen percentage in the flue, stack temperature, and calculate combustion efficiency. Readings outside manufacturer specs point directly to the failed component.
KIC Refrigeration repairs boilers in Cheshire, CT 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.
After repair, we pressurize the system, check for leaks at every connection, purge air from the zone loops, verify the expansion tank pre-charge, and run the boiler through a full heating cycle to confirm proper operation and safety control function.

Yes. KIC Refrigeration provides 24/7 emergency boiler repair throughout Cheshire and surrounding Connecticut 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 Cheshire property as quickly as possible. Call our emergency line and we will have a technician on the way immediately.
Boiler pressure loss indicates a leak somewhere in the sealed system. The most common causes are a failed expansion tank bladder that allows air into the system, leaking zone valve packings, corroded pipe fittings or baseboard connections, a weeping pressure relief valve, or a pinhole leak in the heat exchanger itself. A healthy hydronic system holds 12 to 18 PSI when cold and rises to 18 to 25 PSI at operating temperature. If the pressure gauge drops below 10 PSI, the low-water cutoff should shut the burner down to prevent damage. KIC Refrigeration pressure-tests the system, inspects all fittings and valves, and locates the leak at your Cheshire home so we can repair it permanently.
Yes. KIC Refrigeration services all types of boilers in Cheshire including combination boilers that provide both space heating and domestic hot water from a single unit. We work on combi boilers from Navien, Rinnai, Viessmann, Weil-McLain, Burnham, Buderus, Baxi, and other manufacturers. Common combi boiler repairs include diverter valve replacement, plate heat exchanger descaling or replacement, flow sensor calibration, expansion vessel recharging, and ignition module troubleshooting. Our technicians carry diagnostic tools specific to combi boiler systems and understand the interaction between the heating and hot water circuits that makes these units unique to diagnose.
