Early signs of zone valve wear can be detected before complete failure occurs, saving you the inconvenience of an emergency breakdown. We recommend scheduling annual maintenance to keep your boiler system running reliably and extend its service life.

CANRO Heating & Cooling technicians can accurately diagnose zone valve issues using specialized testing equipment. If you notice any of these symptoms, prompt professional diagnosis can prevent further damage to your system and restore your home comfort quickly.
