Good Afternoon,

I have a Weil-Mclain CGI-7, hot water system.  The boiler seems to be operating normal, the problem is that the house is only maintaining a temperature of 65 degrees regardless of how high i raise the temperature on the thermostat. 

Temperature of boiler has been risen to 180 degrees

boiler is three months old.

    What

    Is the temperature difference between boiler supply out to the system and the boiler return? Please post pics of the boiler piping?

    There was an error rendering this rich post.

    temperature

    Are You saying the boiler guage is showing 180* or are You saying that the temperature control ( aquastat ) was raised to 180*?

    If the second is true what is the boiler temp on the guage?

    There are two larger pipes coming off of the boiler - one off of the top the other off of the side. Carefully touch the pipe coming off of the side. Is it so hot that You can't touch it? Is it about the same temp as the pipe coming off the top. ( be carefull )

    Take pictures of the boiler piping and any zone valves you have.

    thermostat problem?

    try replacing the batteries in the thermostat. i had a problem where everything seemed normal, but the furnace would not keep the temperature over 55 degrees. there was no message on the display about a battery problem, but changing the batteries brought evrything back to life.--nbc

    Hard to say

    It could be alot of things, I would lean toward a pump issue. If the boiler is up to temp but house is cool and not heating well, then there is a laundry list of possibilities. Need more info.

    re-bleed again, if possible........
