When a residential boiler frequently loses pressure, an automatic water feeder may be continuously concealing an in-floor radiant tubing rupture or subfloor baseboard pipe leak. We locate closed-loop heating leaks using thermal imaging without tearing up hardwood or tile.
Heating loops are closed pressurized systems that should never lose volume under normal conditions.
If your boiler pressure gauge regularly drops below 12–15 PSI, requiring manual feeding or frequent automated makeup water, water is escaping.
A dead or unheated section of an in-floor radiant loop, or an unusually intense hot spot followed by complete cold, indicates a fractured PEX circuit.
Continuous air binding in second-story radiators occurs when water escaping the closed loop draws air into the circulating system.
Find the exact leak in your radiant tubing or baseboard circuit before winter freezes exacerbate the problem.
