3 Benefits of Boiler Servicing
Not getting your boiler annually serviced by our gas engineers is a big mistake when it comes to the safety and efficiency of your boiler. Keep reading to find out how your boiler can benefit from an annual boiler service...
An annual boiler service save lives
Your safety is
our top priority, which is why it is imperative that you get your boiler serviced
every year. During a service, our gas engineers will check
for any weak spots, leaks or damaged components that may be at risk of leaking
carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide
is a poisonous gas that causes 4000 people to receive medical care at A&E
each year. It is a colourless, odourless gas, adding to its
danger, and you only know you are exposed to it when you begin to feel the
symptoms (including nausea and dizziness).
For extra peace
of mind between your annual service, we recommend investing in a carbon monoxide
alarm and positioning it close to your boiler.
An annual boiler service saves you money
If your boiler
begins to make strange noises, is leaking gas or is releasing a strange smell, it's an obvious sign that
something isn't quite right. However, it is not always this easy to spot faults on a boiler. A lot of the time,
things can go wrong inside of your boiler and there is no clear or easy way to
know. Because of this, it is a good idea to get your boiler serviced by our gas
engineers each year to catch any sneaky problems before they get out of
hand.
If our gas
engineers do spot any problems, we'll let you know and tell you the costs. It's better to fix a fault whilst its small and relatively inexpensive in comparison to leaving it and hoping it'll disappear. Doing so might result in a boiler breakdown or (worst case scenario) the
need for a new boiler.
A boiler service with our gas engineers is much cheaper than buying a brand new boiler, so give us a call on 07920 875189 to book an appointment with our engineers now.
Our gas engineers improve your boiler efficiency!
Through years of
wear and tear, your boiler will become run down and some components will likely need to be replaced, thus increasing the required work rate of your boiler. Our gas engineers will check for any parts not working
to their full potential and these will be replaced, improving your boilers
efficiency.
As the
efficiency of your boiler increases, your home energy bills will decrease because your boiler needn't work as hard to release the same amount of
heat it was beforehand - win-win.
So, when should you get your boiler serviced?
Ideally, you
should get your boiler serviced towards the end of summer/ into autumn. Why? As you
probably won’t have used much heating in the summer months, it is useful to get
it serviced before the winter so we can sort any problems there may be, before
you begin to rely on it for warmth every day in the colder months.
To reduce the
risk of any problems occurring throughout summer, we recommend switching your
boiler on for at least fifteen minutes each month, just to keep it in good
working order.
