Four reasons to service every year
- Manufacturer warranties usually require a yearly service by a registered engineer
- A flue-gas test confirms the boiler is burning safely
- A clean burner and heat exchanger use less fuel
- Worn seals and parts are spotted before they fail in January
When to book
Late summer and early autumn are ideal: the heating hasn't been worked hard yet and appointment slots are easier to get than in the first cold snap.
Landlords
If you rent out a property, keeping an up-to-date service record is part of looking after your tenants' safety. Keep each signed record on file.
