NEED OIL BURNER TECH FOR REPAIR ASAP IN WOLFEBORO / NEW DURHAM AREA

Alton NH

Description

NEED NOW: It's cold and I need an oil burner technician to diagnose the issue that's keeping my Beckett AFG oil burner from firing. And if you do other general PLUMBING, I'll have plenty of work for you in the future. I have a Weil-McClain boiler, Beckett AFG Burner, and the older gray Burner Control with 45-second lock out. The system is set up to do 3 things: 1) heat my hot water through a heat exchanger, 2) heat up multiple baseboards each controlled by its own Zone Control Valve, and 3) send hot water through an air handler that makes Forced Hot Air. I have 1/4 tank of oil, confirmed by a rope lowered into the tank, and a brand new oil filter. All the usual lights are coming on, the brand new motor runs, and I bled the fuel line, confirming that the pump is making a strong flow and that there's no air in the line. But it isn't igniting, which means either a problem with the Suntec pump solenoid, or the ignition itself. My previous plumber / oil burner tech did a really thorough cleanout & service in MAY 2022 and made it more efficient than ever before, BUT he disappeared and his number's disconnected. It was working perfectly until one day last week--nothing! The Service power switch attached to the boiler is on, and so is the emergency shutoff switch at the top of the basement stairs. The POWER light is shining green on the SR502 Zone 1 & 2 box, and sometimes the red Zone 2 light comes on (that's the only zone being used). Also, one weird thing: on the days I shut off the emergency switch when I didnt need heat, the next day I always got about an 8-SECOND DELAY before the burner kicked back on, which I believe is normal. BUT, on the last day it worked, the burner came on INSTANTLY when I flipped the switch on, NO DELAY. I let it heat my hot water, shut off the system, and the next morning, NOTHING, it would no longer kick on. THE WORK I NEED NOW: 1) Diagnose & Repair the issue, 2) Swap out one circulator pump (I have the part), 3) Swap out 1 Zone Control Valve going to the hot water heater, 4) clean out the ductwork for the Forced Hot Air, 5) make sure the thermostats are all working. THE WORK I NEED IN THE FUTURE: I want to give each room its own baseboard & thermostat: 1) Install a 4 or 5 zone splitter to create additional baseboard heat zones, 2) Install SlantFin Petite 9 in each room, 3) disassemble a bunch of extra piping for a very builtin old hot tub. Best way to contact me is to send a TEXT to 617-799-8233 telling me who you are and I'll get back to you. 2nd best way is to call and leave a message, but my voicemail is usually full. 3rd best way is to email--must include phone number.
