FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I service my own boiler?
Fixing your boiler is risky if you're not a Gas Safe engineer. The Gas Safe Register is there for a good reason, and the risks are too great. Gas can be dangerous, so stay away from it unless you're Gas Safe!
How often should a home boiler be serviced?
It's necessary to have your boiler inspected every year to make sure it's working fine and doesn't have any water or gas leaks. If you skip this, your boiler might not work well, it could stop working, or you might lose the warranty.
Is a boiler service worth it?
Keeping your boiler in good shape is important for making it work better. If you regularly check and fix any possible problems, you can prevent your boiler from breaking down. To keep your boiler warranty valid, it's recommended to get it serviced every 12 months.
What does a full boiler service include?
Every year, a engineer will begin by visually inspecting the boiler and pipes to make sure they are installed and positioned correctly. After that, the technician will check if the boiler is working properly and identify any initial issues. Following this, they will take off the boiler casing to examine its parts.
