Why it is important to get your gas boiler serviced annually

If your boiler seems to be working as it should then you may wonder if you need to get it serviced every year. However just like any major appliance, your boiler needs to be cared for and checked on a regular basis to make sure that it is running safely and that it is as efficient as it should be.

What we do when we carry out a boiler service in Devon.

It’s always good to know what it is that is done when you have a gas engineer come to your home to service your boiler.

Here is a list of the main aspects of what we do, and what you can expect.

• Initially we visually look over the boiler to ensure that it still meets current standards and then we turn the boiler on to see if there are any working faults.
• Next we remove the casing of the gas boiler to check that all the main boiler components are working.
  We then do checks to make sure that the flue terminals are not obstructed by anything and that the internal flue components are sealed.
• The gas valve is adjusted to make sure that burner is efficiently burning.
• We check for leaks of any kind.
• Any inside casing surfaces and boiler parts are cleaned if necessary.
• We finally put the casing back on and make sure it is properly sealed.

How a gas boiler service makes your home safer

When we carry out our boiler service in Devon we always check for possible problems and when we do encounter them they are often related to leaks of some variety or another. A leaking gas boiler can be a really big problem. Often we may associate leaking gas with an explosion – and of course that is something to be avoided(!) but the more worrying leak is often undetected by smell and may not ignite, however gas leaks or carbon monoxide leaks can cause serious health repercussions and can cause fatalities.

An annual boiler service will check that there are no current or potential issues with leakages, also it will check that all components are working as they should do, that valves are adjusted appropriately, flues are unobstructed, all major gas boiler components are working and any part that needs cleaning is cleaned. This leaves your boiler safe.

How do you know when your gas boiler is serviced that the gas boiler engineer you choose has the expertise and experience required?

Servicing your boiler should only ever be undertaken by a professional that holds the correct qualifications. These are namely:

• Gas Safe members – Gas Safe is the National watchdog for gas safety within the UK.
• NICEIC approved contractors – this means that all contractors meet stringent quality and safety standard when installing electrical devices.
• HETAS members – HETAS approved competent installers for biomass and solid fuel domestic heating appliances for systems that go beyond the standard gas boiler system.

At Simon Turner Showrooms we hold, and are members of, all of the above accreditations and industry bodies and we have an unwavering commitment to unparalleled customer service delivered by highly experienced technicians.

You can trust Simon Turner, you can trust our gas boiler fitters in Devon and trust in a company that has been in business since the 1980s.
