Boiler Servicing in Sheffield

Why Service Your Boiler Every Year?

Your boiler works hard, especially through a Sheffield winter. Like a car, it benefits from a regular check by a qualified engineer. A yearly service is the simplest way to keep it running safely and efficiently.

• Safety — a service checks that the boiler is burning properly and that there are no signs of leaks or problems with the flue
• Reliability — small issues can be spotted and put right before they cause a breakdown
• Efficiency — a well-maintained boiler runs more efficiently, which helps keep your energy bills down
• Warranty — many manufacturers expect an annual service to keep their warranty valid, so check the terms for your boiler
• Peace of mind — you know your heating and hot water are ready for the cold weather

When to Book a Boiler Service

Many people book in autumn, just before the heating season, but a service is worth doing at any time of year. Booking in spring or summer often means it is easier to find a slot that suits you. Try to book once a year, around the same time each year, so it becomes a habit.

Landlords

If you let a property with a gas boiler, you have a legal duty to make sure the gas appliances are safe. Landlords in England must have a gas safety check carried out every twelve months by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Ask us about your property and we will advise on what you need.
