about Boiler Servicing and repairs
the importance of Preventative maintenance
All too often we are called to service boilers, which have supposedly been under contract with a service provider for several years, where we find that no preventative maintenance whatsoever has been carried out. Often national household names, in whom many people place the most trust, will be the worst offenders for this.
A boiler service should always include the following
- Visually inspect the appliance and flue in its entirety including flues running through loft spaces
- Check case seals
- Removal of the boiler case is essential every service!>
- Visual inspection of the inside of the appliance
- Remove and clean condensate trap
- Check internal condition of heat exchanger, clean as required
- Check ignition electrodes clean/replace as required
- On most modern boilers the heat exchanger combustion seals require replacement at maximum five yearly intervals, failure to do this can result in a dangerous potentially life threatening situation occurring
- Clean any system filter installed (this also provides crucial information on system water condition)
- Check system pressure and expansion vessel (sealed systems only)
- Check for signs of leakage
- Check operating gas pressure and/or heat input
- Check safety devices
- Check operation of flue and clearance of products of combustion
- Flue gas analysis with calibrated flue gas analyser
- Produce written record of work done and test results
We would typically expect a boiler service to last between 45minutes and 1.5 hours, depending upon age and condition of the boiler
All boilers should be serviced annually, If a boiler is not properly maintained, it will be unreliable and may ultimately become dangerous. choosing the right service provider is essential!
