Boiler Low Water Alarm in Benoni

The low water cut-out trips and stops the boiler even when the tank has water. This page covers how we diagnose and repair it on steam systems in Benoni.

This fault is normally treated as same-day work because the site has effectively lost hot water, steam or safe operation.

Light industry, schools and hostels with large-volume storage geysers and boiler-fed hot water. Where a site runs on borehole water, hardness and iron content shorten service intervals considerably and are worth testing before setting a maintenance plan.
