    Weil-McLain GV-4 won't fire

    I have a Weil-McLain GV-4 series 1 that won't go past fan running with only the power light lighting. After a few recycles, I did get it to light and heat for about 15 minutes, then it shut down again. Lights began to flash, but unfortunately I didn't notice which ones. Made an inquiry at the...

    Weil-McLain GV-4 Overheating

    Noticed some banging in the pipes near my boiler and discovered temp is up to 260 and still going higher. Shut of wall switch and restarted and seems to be fine now. What to check on and replace so this doesn't happen when I'm away for a week???

    Keeping pipes from freezing

    Trying to get this fixed before cold weather. I have an unheated garage inside home. Gets down as low as 35 or so during coldest below zero weather. The drains for the water softener and the home boiler go into a vent pipe from the outside. During the coldest weather, they freeze. Need...

    Kenmore no brine draw

    Replaced every stinkin seal and o ring on the thing and still can't get soft water. Reason being I guess is because the brine will not draw out. The level says constant, about 9 inches from the top. Sears had me remove the flow plug in the venturi and confirmed that I get good suction. But it...

    boiler circulator bad?

    When a boiler circulator goes, does it ever work a little. I ask because I get great hot pipes out of the zones, but the hot water never comes around.

    Little heat in one zone

    I've got a Weil McClain GV 4 with 4 taco zone valves. The one that heats my downstairs seems to work when it feels like. I switched the heads on the Taco valve to a known working one to eliminate that question. I do get heat if I push the lever to manual from auto. Can the valve be the problem...
