We have taken some time to explore the benefits of encouraging customers to have their boilers serviced during the less busy summer months.

As installers, we are well aware that a regular service is vital to ensure a boiler remains efficient and continues to run smoothly and, more importantly, safely. It is also common knowledge amongst engineers that the best time of year for homeowners and landlords to book a service is during the summer months.

However, whether it’s arranging a sun-filled summer break, organising a BBQ or relaxing in the back garden, servicing a boiler certainly does not top the list of priorities for homeowners and landlords at this time.

When the British winter hits, it affects the whole country at the same time as homeowners fire up their boilers and are likely to uncover various faults and niggles.

It’s not just technical faults that can be uncovered in a summer service. Insects can be known to set up camp in the boiler’s condensation tubes when the boiler is switched off. These nests can lie undetected until the winter when homeowners can then be faced with large blockages that can interfere with the smooth running of the appliance or even break it completely. A simple tube cleaning job can then become a much bigger problem.

With these points in mind we recommend that summertime is a great time to make sure that your boiler is serviced and well maintained. If you need your equipment serviced please call us on 01473 824884.
