I would say the majority of people don’t even know that you should get your boiler serviced every 12 months.
in this blog we will give you just 5 of the reasons why getting that white box looked at every 12 month is as important as getting an MOT on your car
A faulty boiler can be extremely dangerous. According to reaserch eve 12 month in great britain,, around 4,000 people go to Hospital with Carbon monoxide poisoning.
Carbon monoxide is a gas produced by a gas appliance when it is not burning correctly.
it doesn’t smell, taste, and you can’t see it. if exposed to this gas it can be fatal!
A Gas Safe engineer will check your appliance for and fix any faults during a service.
Your chosen Gas Safe Engineer will check your appliance to make sure its running efficiently therefor reducing you gas bills and doing your bit for the planet.
Servicing your boiler every 12 month can bring any minor faults or leks to the attention of the engineer. allowing them to fix any small problems before they manifest in to larger more expensive issues
All boiler warranties and some home insurance policies require that you ensure your boiler is serviced and safe to use.
A lot of the newer boiler have long warrenties, some up to 10 even 12 years. if your boiler isn’t serviced every 12 month and the benchmark book not filled out then the warranty is void and any costly repairs in the future will have to be paid for by you
Landlords are required by lawto keep your gas appliances maintained and safe to use, and must provide a Gas Safe certificate for gas boilers.
Your key legal obligations can be found in The Health & Safety at Work Act (1974), Workplace (Health, Safety & Welfare) Regulations 1992 and Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998.
