You’re probably thinking ‘why should I get my boiler serviced each year when it is working fine?’ … well, annual boiler servicing is the best way to ensure your boiler stays working fine for the next year. Keep reading to find out 5 benefits of boiler servicing; from keeping your family safe to keeping your money safe!
Boiler servicing keeps you safe
Faulty
boilers are at risk of leaking gas, creating fires, exploding and causing
carbon monoxide poisoning. While these may seem unlikely, they are more common
than you may think amongst un-serviced boilers that have unknown faults on the
inside.
To avoid
you and your family experiencing any of these hazards, it is best to get your
boiler serviced every year.
For extra
peace of mind, our gas engineers recommend you fit a carbon monoxide alarm
close to your boiler so you are alerted of any gas leaks before it’s too late.
Boiler servicing cuts your energy bills
Like with
anything, boilers become worn out after years of use. This causes them to run
inefficiently and require more energy than necessary.
During a
boiler service, our gas engineers will check for any worn out, weak parts and
replace anything that isn’t working as efficiently as it should.
This means
that your boiler will not need to work as hard, wasting less energy and saving
you more money! As well as this, wasting less energy reduces your carbon
footprint- helping you to help the planet.
Boiler servicing reduces the risk of breakdowns
Getting
your boiler checked each year means any small problems will be spotted and
resolved quickly and easily. If left untreated, small problems can develop and
get worse, causing the need for expensive (and unnecessary) repairs.
A boiler
check is much cheaper than a boiler replacement and they are worth every penny!
Boiler servicing keeps you warm
The best
time to get your boiler serviced is the end of summer, before you start relying
on your hot water and central heating every day.
There is
nothing worse than trying to switch your heating on and finding a fault in your
system so it is best to get your boiler serviced early so any problems can be
solved in good time.
Boiler servicing is the law for landlords
As a landlord, your tenants’ safety is your responsibility. By law, all gas appliances need to be serviced and checked annually to ensure everything is in good working order. The benefit? No fines!
