Why Do I Need A Boiler Service?
As a team of reputable and specialist heating engineers, we advise that you get your boiler serviced annually to help ensure that it’s running at optimal efficiency and also for safety purposes.
During our professional boiler service in Bristol, our Gas Safe registered engineer will check for any leaks or other damages, giving you the reassurance and peace of mind that you deserve. However, if you notice any of these issues such as leaks, you should contact your local boiler repairs company as soon as possible.
A boiler repair is a preventive measure that can help you avoid costly repairs down the road. Regular servicing can help identify any potential issues before they become bigger problems, and can help you identify any areas that need to be addressed.
Although boiler servicing will be an expenditure, it’s a reasonable cost to ensure that your boiler is running efficiently. An efficient boiler can save you money on your energy bills, as a more efficient boiler costs less to run. Modern boilers are extremely energy-efficient, whereas older boilers are not so much, so how much money you can save will be dependent on the age and spec of your boiler.
It is the law for Landlords to have boilers within their property annually serviced by Gas Safe engineers to see if there are any faults and if everything is running smoothly. Your gas safety certificate will be issued at a discounted price if done at the same time as a boiler service.
