Hot water, heating, the toilet…what state would your home would be in if your boiler doing all these vital jobs? The boiler is the most important piece of machinery in your house (though your kids might say the internet router) and it is imperative that it runs as well as it can. With London experiencing the coldest weather in a decade, you need your boiler in tip-top shape! As essential as the boiler is though, it is certainly expensive to run and potentially replace if it breaks down. This is why a regular boiler service is so important! Check out these six reasons why you should get on the phone to a reputable plumber today:
It’s The Law If You Are A Landlord
If you rent a property, you are required by law to have an annual gas safety check on your boiler or you could get prosecuted.
If your boiler is under warranty and there is a problem, the company will only consider a repair if you can show that you have looked after it properly. A once yearly boiler service is the best way to do this.
Not keeping your boiler in tip-top shape can potentially lead to a boiler risking your health. Carbon monoxide poisoning can lead to symptoms such as headaches, nausea, dizziness and worse.
You Will Save Money On Your Bills
Paying for a boiler service isn’t an unnecessary expense – it will, in fact, save you money in the long run. Gas is expensive, so even small improvements in the efficiency of your boiler can save you a lot of cash.
You Will Catch Problems Before They Become Serious
Boilers are complicated machines with many parts; just one getting damaged, can over time lead to other components becoming compromised. By catching the problem early, you can prevent other parts of the boiler getting damaged which will stop the cost of repair from increasing exponentially.
It Costs Less Than Replacing Your Boiler
Replacing your knackered boiler must be the least fun way of spending a thousand pounds. An annual boiler service, in contrast, is cheaper than you think and can increase the life of your boiler by years and years.
