It can be easy to forget to book a yearly boiler service, but servicing your boiler regularly can increase the lifespan of your boiler and save you money in the long run. Hiring a professional and qualified boiler engineer ensures that any faults can be diagnosed and repaired without any boiler downtime.
1. General inspection
During a boiler servicing, your appointed boiler engineer will thoroughly look at the overall condition of your boiler to assess its functionality. We will inspect the most important aspect of the boiler and its controls: safety. The controls regulate the flow of water and fuel so it’s vital they are working and are safe to use. We also check for leaks and obvious faults with the outside of your boiler.
2. Inside the casing
Once we’ve checked the outside of the boiler, we will pop off the outer casing and look through the internal components. We’ll carry out a gas pressure test to measure the pressure of your boiler and make sure it’s functioning at the right amount. Other tests we carry out include a flue test. This will check the CO and combustion ratio to ensure they are at a safe amount and not emitting an excess of carbon monoxide gas.
3. Clean boiler
Lastly, we will clean any components of the boiler that need a tidy up and check for lime scale or debris. Once everything is in order, we will pop the outer case back on the boiler and give one last check. Before we leave, we will provide all relevant information about the boiler servicing that you can keep for your own records.
