How Often Should You Service Your Boiler?

Why Annual Boiler Servicing Matters

Your boiler is one of the hardest-working appliances in your home, yet it's often forgotten until something goes wrong. An annual boiler service is the single most important thing you can do to keep your heating system safe, efficient, and reliable.

Safety First

A poorly maintained boiler can produce carbon monoxide — a colourless, odourless gas that kills around 30 people in the UK every year. Annual servicing includes combustion analysis to ensure your boiler is burning gas safely.

Protect Your Warranty

Almost all boiler manufacturers require an annual service by a Gas Safe registered engineer to maintain your warranty. Skip a service and you could void your warranty entirely.

Save Money on Energy Bills

A well-maintained boiler runs more efficiently, using less gas to heat your home. Even a small drop in efficiency can add up to hundreds of pounds in wasted energy over the year.

When to Book

The best time to book a boiler service is during the summer months when demand is low and you won't miss your heating if a repair is needed. Don't wait until the first cold snap — by then, plumbers are at their busiest. Our central heating engineers serve the whole of Peterborough and surrounding areas.
