Boiler Servicing in Taunton

Why service your boiler every year?

• Safety — a service checks for gas leaks, poor combustion and the risk of carbon monoxide.
• Warranty — most manufacturer warranties require an annual service by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
• Efficiency — a well-maintained boiler burns fuel more efficiently, which helps keep bills down.
• Reliability — small problems caught early are cheaper to fix than a breakdown in the middle of winter.
• A longer life for your boiler.

What's included in a boiler service

Every boiler is different, but a typical service includes:

• A visual inspection of the boiler, pipework and controls
• Checking the flue and ventilation are clear and working safely
• Flue gas analysis to confirm the boiler is burning gas correctly
• Checking gas pressure and burner operation
• Inspecting and cleaning key components where needed
• Testing safety devices and controls
• Checking system pressure and the expansion vessel
• A written record of the service for your warranty and your records

When should I book?

Once a year — ideally before winter, when a breakdown is most inconvenient and engineers are at their busiest. If you're a landlord, we can combine your boiler service with your annual gas safety check (CP12) in the same visit.

Smell gas? Don't use light switches or naked flames, open doors and windows, turn off the gas at the meter if you can, leave the property and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 straight away.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should a boiler be serviced?

Every 12 months. It's what most manufacturers recommend, and usually a condition of the warranty.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes — someone will need to be at home to let our engineer in.

What's the difference between a boiler service and a gas safety check?

A service is maintenance — cleaning, adjusting and checking the boiler so it runs safely and efficiently. A gas safety check (CP12) is the annual safety inspection landlords are legally required to have on every gas appliance they provide. We can do both in one visit from £130 — see landlord gas safety certificates.

Do you service LPG boilers?

Yes — our engineers are qualified to work on LPG. See our LPG services.
