I took out the old boiler and put in a used one a little over a year old it has a loud banging sound after it runs for about 15 mins I hooked it up just like I took it out what did I do wroung! Should I change the tank? Or the old one will work?

JJ – What do you mean by hot water pipe tubes? do you mean the black insulation tubing that goes around hot water pipes?

We’ve been in our house 8 years with a VERY noisy hot water baseboard heat system. It freaked people out when the heater kicked on because the pipes all around would click and ping. I couldn’t find anything online about it, so we lived with it. This year, I decided to do some more looking, and finally bough a $3 package of hot water pipe “tubes”. I took all the covers off, cut the tubes about 2-3″ lengths and slid the tubes over the brackets the fins were resting on. My baseboards are virtually silent!!!! Thought this was worth sharing…a cheap, fast & easy solution to an annoying problem. Feel free to add it to your site. Thanks!
