The only sound you should hear is the burner, and even that should be pretty subdued. If you are hearing any kind of sound beyond that, it is time to call for help.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Constant on and off cycling<\/strong> \u2013 have you noticed that your boiler is constantly turning on and off? This is something known as short-cycling, and it isn\u2019t good for your boiler system at all. A few things can cause short-cycling, but the most important thing is to have it repaired as soon as possible.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Strong odors<\/strong> \u2013 it is normal to have a faint smell around your boiler, particularly if it has just turned on for the season, but there never be any consistent, strong odors emanating from your boiler system. Should you smell something consistently, it is time to call for a technician.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Excessive rust<\/strong> \u2013 yes, your boiler uses water to heat your home, but this doesn\u2019t mean it is ok to have a rusty unit.
