Why does my Weil-McLain Boiler burner turn on and off frequently?

  rwilkinsonAug 13, 2025
  Frequent on and off cycling of your Weil-McLain boiler's burner can be due to several reasons. The thermostat might be installed in a location affected by drafts or heat, causing inaccurate readings. Try relocating the thermostat to an inner wall, away from heat sources or cool drafts. Another cause might be an incorrectly adjusted heat anticipator in the thermostat; in this case, adjust the heat anticipator to match the current draw, referring to the boiler wiring diagram. Finally, the limit setting may be incorrect. A qualified service technician can increase the limit setting, up to a maximum of 220° F, to reduce cycling.
