Your boiler is the heart of your home's heating system, keeping your radiators warm and your hot water running. While modern boilers are designed to be durable, even the best ones can become less efficient or break down over time.
The easiest way to prevent this is with an annual service from a Gas Safe registered engineer – but regular servicing offers a lot more than just peace of mind.
Greenstar have been providing expert heating services across Dorset and Hampshire since 1990, so we know how essential it is to keep your boiler in top shape. Here are five important reasons why annual servicing should be at the top of your home maintenance checklist!
Over time, your boiler can collect dust and debris, and some parts might start to wear out. This can make it less efficient, which means it will cost you more to get the same heat out of it.
During a service, an engineer will give your boiler a thorough check, tighten any loose parts, clear out any blockages, and replace anything that's looking worn out to keep everything running smoothly. This helps your boiler use less energy, which means lower bills and a smaller carbon footprint.
There's nothing worse than coming home to a chilly house on a cold evening, but without regular maintenance, a boiler breakdown is almost inevitable. Regular servicing helps catch small faults before they become major problems, so you can avoid the hassle and cost of emergency repairs. You'll also have the peace of mind that comes with knowing your heating will be ready when you need it most.
Just like your car, your boiler needs regular maintenance to stay in good shape. An annual service helps extend its life by keeping all the parts running smoothly and making sure it's working efficiently, so it doesn't have to work as hard or wear out as quickly. A well-maintained boiler can last much longer than one that's been neglected, saving you the cost and hassle of an early replacement.
Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless, and tasteless gas that can leak from a faulty boiler. If it builds up in your home, it can reduce the oxygen in your bloodstream, causing symptoms like headaches, dizziness, nausea, and fatigue. In severe cases, carbon monoxide poisoning can be life-threatening.
During an annual service, a qualified engineer will check carbon monoxide levels to make sure they're within safe limits, inspect the boiler and its connections for gas leaks, and test various components to make sure everything is working properly. This helps keep your boiler safe and gives you peace of mind.
Most boiler manufacturers require regular servicing to keep your warranty active. If you skip your annual service, you might find your warranty won't cover you if something goes wrong. Keeping up with your yearly services will make sure your warranty stays valid, saving you money on repairs or replacements down the road.
