Everything You Need to Know
Boilers work hard to keep our homes warm and the hot water running. Keeping yours in good shape will help to prevent costly, disruptive repairs, but how is best to do that? With regular servicing, of course! As leading Gas Safe engineers with years of experience when it comes to boiler and plumbing repairs, we know everything there is to know about boiler servicing. So, how often do you need yours checked over? Here is your complete guide.
How often does your boiler need to be serviced?
We recommend getting in touch and booking a boiler service every 12 months. Our Gas Safe engineers will give it a thorough check to ensure that everything is in good working order, and in the vast majority of cases, no work will need to be carried out! You will then be able to enjoy peace of mind for another year, safe in the knowledge that your boiler will be able to see you through all the seasons and their different demands.
Why every 12 months?
That’s a great question! Firstly, it’s easy to remember an annual service, especially if you have it carried out at the same time every year. Say you always have your boiler serviced in the spring. You’d know right now to get in touch with us in the next few weeks to book yours in. Annual servicing also means catching any issues when they are at a very early stage. Boiler problems can take months to develop, so a yearly service is a great chance to catch them before they seriously impact how it runs.
Does servicing affect my boiler warranty?
No one wants to fall foul of the terms and conditions of their boiler warranty, and keeping up with your yearly services is the easiest way to prevent this. If you don’t have your boiler serviced by a Gas Safe engineer every year, then you could invalidate your policy. For this reason alone, it’s a good idea to give us a call!
When should you have your boiler serviced?
There is no perfect time of year to have your boiler serviced. A boiler that is working well will result in lower energy bills and will not break down unexpectedly, and it’s for this reason that many people choose to have theirs serviced in the summer. That way, they are ready for the winter when their boiler will be working harder. Our advice is to have it done whenever it is most convenient for you. If that is right now, then give us a call!
