i have a peerless boiler that heats my house. it's water base gas heating. i have 3 levels (basement, 1st floor, 2nd floor). i have 2 problems with it. the first problem is that it's constantley shuts off. so i have to go down to the basement and light it up againg. the second problem is that when ever it's working, it makes a noise. any suggestions
sounds like you need to call a qualified repair man,
The pilot info is the proper place to start. The noise may be air in the system, which you can remove. If there are radiators they will have a schrader valve on or near the top. The air in the system will rise to the highest pints in the system - it will not flow back down, so you will need to let it out. the valve operates just like a tire valve - just press the center stem. If they are baseboard radiators - about 6 inches tall, they likely have no valve. the simplest way to get the air out is to put a hose on a valve at the boiler, and draw water from it until you get no air. The water will be dark and will stain whatever you get it on, so be careful. Also the water in the boiler will likely be very hot unless the boiler has been off for several hours. Try to use a valve that is on the outlet side of the boiler, or use the boiler drain.
