Regular servicing keeps your boiler running efficiently, reduces the risk of breakdowns, and ensures it operates safely. Annual service checks also help extend the lifespan of your boiler and maintain its warranty coverage.
Boilers should be serviced annually to maintain efficiency and safety. Annual servicing also ensures compliance with most manufacturers’ warranty requirements and helps prevent costly repairs.
A boiler service involves a thorough inspection of all key components, including the heat exchanger, burner, controls, and seals. Our technicians check for leaks, test safety systems, clean internal parts, and ensure the boiler is operating at peak performance.
Common signs include unusual noises, irregular heating, poor hot water flow, and frequent pressure drops. A sudden increase in energy bills may also indicate inefficiency. If you notice any of these issues, contact us for an assessment.
If your boiler breaks down, check the basics first—like your thermostat settings, power supply, and pilot light (if applicable). If it’s still not working, call us for an emergency repair. We’ll work to restore your heating and hot water as quickly as possible.
For boilers over 10-15 years old, replacement may be more cost-effective if repairs become frequent. Newer models are generally more energy-efficient, which can reduce your heating costs. Our team can help you weigh the costs and benefits based on your boiler’s condition.
