When was the last time you had your boiler serviced? If you’re like most people, it was some time ago, but servicing your boiler annually is recommended. Servicing your boiler can make it more efficient and reduce your energy costs as prices start to rise.
Energy Prices
In case you hadn’t noticed, energy prices are on the rise leading many homeowners to consider their options. Most people are looking for ways to reduce their annual energy bills without sacrificing any comfort or convenience. One way to achieve this is by servicing existing boilers.
Types of Boiler
Broadly, there are three types of boiler to choose from; you can have a combination boiler, conventional boiler, or biomass boiler. A hydrogen-ready boiler is also an option that is becoming popular. But if you’re not ready to invest in a new unit, servicing is the best option.
Boiler Installation
Boilers need to be connected up to the gas mains or external supply like oil or LPG, which is not a job for an average family member with some DIY skills. It is not recommended, or even legal, to install a boiler yourself, you need a Gas Safe or OFTEC registered engineer for the job, so it’s best to partner with one you know you can trust.
Boiler Servicing
If you aren’t ready to install a new fuel-efficient boiler, the next best option is to have an existing one serviced. Boiler servicing make existing boilers more efficient by cleaning debris from the heat exchanger and checking the electrical connections. Always partner with a qualified engineer.
