| All gas appliances should be regularly serviced, at least once a year. In the case of a new appliance that carries a 2 year warranty (i.e Vaillant boiler), a service carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer is required to validate the second year of the guarantee. |
|
| Regular servicing helps to keep your appliance working safely and efficiently. Regular servicing should also prolong the life of your appliance. |
|
| In very basic terms a service includes: |
|
- Visual examination of the appliance and its flue to confirm that it is suitably located and installed in accordance will all relevant regulations.
- Examination and cleaning of combustion chamber, fan, heat exchanger burner etc
- Examination and testing of appliance, flue, safety devices, controls and components
- Checking and adjusting burner pressure and gas rates
- Confirming that the appliance is capable of safe operation
|
| We at Gas Safe Heating & Plumbing also check the rest of the system for defects whilst on a service call. We bleed all the radiators of air, and check that all the radiators are working correctly. Any possible defects are then pointed out to the customer, and possible problems addressed. |
