Boiler, and heating system inspection
£100.00
An annual boiler service every 12 months is strongly recommended by manufacturers and heating engineers to maintain safety, efficiency, and warranty validity. [1, 2]
Key Rules & Requirements
- Worcester Bosch: Recommends servicing every 12 months, ideally in the summer when engineer availability is higher. [1]
- British Gas: Offers annual service plans or one-off checks covering internal parts, seals, gas pressure, and leak detection. [1]
- Gas Safe or OFTEC Register: All gas boilers must be serviced by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and oil boilers must be checked by an OFTEC registered engineer. [1]
- Landlord Legal Duty: While a routine service is not a direct legal requirement for private homeowners, landlords are legally required to provide a yearly Gas Safety Check (CP12) for rented properties. [1]
Main Benefits of a Yearly Check
- Warranty Protection: Most manufacturer warranties become invalid if you skip a yearly service.
- Safety & Carbon Monoxide Prevention: Engineers check for dangerous gas leaks, flue blockages, and proper combustion.
- Lower Energy Bills: A clean, well-tuned system burns fuel more efficiently.
- Fewer Breakdowns: Early detection catches worn-out parts before they cause a full system failure in winter. [1, 2, 3, 4]
