Annual boiler service at a glance
Oftentimes, servicing your boiler is not a top priority. As such, it is something that you often sort out after some years. However, the truth is that a yearly service is vital for keeping your boiler in good running condition. Additionally, an annual boiler service is a key requirement for warranty and legal reasons, as we shall discuss later in this article.
Below are the reasons why you need to book an annual service for your boiler
1. To ensure your boiler runs without problems
Your boiler gradually wears out, making it less efficient over time. This translates into the boiler having to work harder to heat your home, causing you to incur increased energy costs. An annual service can be helpful in the identification of any efficiency issues of your boiler, and your heating expert can do repairs to redress any existing issues. Further, annual services protect your boiler by ensuring that it lasts longer than an unmaintained model.
2. Identify potential problems before they become more severe.
When you take too long to service your boiler, underlying problems are likely to go unnoticed until they grow into a breakdown. This might cost you your heating convenience, forcing you to stay without hot water or heating until you book an appointment with your engineer to fix the problem. During the aforementioned services, the engineer can identify any minor problems that are likely to be greater issues later. This offers you a chance to fix the issues before they become more catastrophic, avoiding future abrupt and expensive boiler breakdowns.
3. Keeping your warranty valid.
It is likely that your boiler came with a warranty when you purchased it. Some of these warranties last as long as ten years, giving you superior protection in case your boiler develops any problems during the first few years. But to maintain the validity of the warranty, you will need to seek the services of a Gas Safe registered engineer to service it. Lack of service makes your warranty void, and you have to pay for repairs in case of any problems.
4. Observing the law.
The law requires every landlord to obtain a valid Gas Safety certificate for their property. This acts as proof of the safety of all gas appliances on the property, the boiler included. In the event that you fail to service your boiler and something goes wrong, you could be held liable for any damages caused or even be subjected to prosecution.
An annual boiler service reassures you that your boiler is safe and runs efficiently to the maximum. In addition, it gives you the peace of mind that your loved ones are protected against the dangers posed by the boiler, for instance, carbon monoxide poisoning, which takes over 4,000 people to the accidents and emergencies department every year. Carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless, making it nearly impossible to detect. An annual boiler service keeps you and your family from dangerous leaks.
