The Importance of an Annual Boiler Service
Your boiler plays a crucial role in keeping your home warm. Missing its annual service can make it unsafe, reduce its performance and increase your energy use. All gas appliances require regular maintenance to ensure they are safe.
We recommend that your boiler is serviced annually, to ensure that it is running properly and any problems are identified quickly to reduce the chance of costly repairs.. In this blog post we will share why it is important and the benefits of a professional boiler service
Prevention is better than cure
Regular maintenance of your gas boiler can minimise any future repairs requirements by improving the reliability of your heating system.
Getting your boiler serviced every 12 months by a Gas Safe registered engineer is one of the most important ways to keep it running smoothly. A yearly inspection can help repair any issues straight away, so your boiler is less likely to breakdown
Winter is coming
Here at Stark Heating & Gas we know the importance of servicing your boiler before the cold weather arrives. We can’t think of anything worse than turning on the heating at the start of a cold spell and it not working.
Get your home ready for winter and keep your boiler in top condition ensuring your home is kept warm and safe. A Gas Safe registered engineer will carry out essential checks to help ensure your boiler keeps running no matter the weather.
Protect your boiler warranty
Most if not all manufacturers’ warranties require a service to be completed every year by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Failure to do so could invalidate your warranty and lose any of the benefits that are included with it.
Most of the brands we supply offer 10-year warranties, which demonstrates the importance of protecting your boiler. Make sure you book your service annually keeping your warranty valid and your home safe and warm.
Energy saving
During your gas boiler service, your Gas Safe registered engineer will check how efficiently your boiler is working. Measure how much gas the boiler is using which can save you money overtime.
Safety first
A big advantage of having an annual gas boiler service is ensuring your home is a safer place. Faulty gas boilers that have missed their yearly service could potentially lead to dangerous fires or gas leaks. A faulty boiler can also lead to increased risk of producing carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is a poisonous gas, as its clear and odourless it's extremely dangerous. Having your boiler serviced yearly will help catch any faults early, potentially protecting your home and family from carbon monoxide poisoning.
Longer life
A healthy and well-maintained boiler will more than likely have a longer lifespan. This in turn can result in significant savings. Regular servicing and maintenance by Gas Safe registered engineers will not only keep your boiler running smoothly and efficiently but could also help identify and rectify small issues which could improve the lifespan of your boiler.
