The main reason is to ensure you, your home and your family is safe. A damaged or faulty boiler could lead to fires, gas leaks, or even carbon monoxide poisoning. During a service, one of our Gas Safe registered engineers will check for leaks and problems for your peace of mind.<\/p>\n
Your engineer will carry out checks to ensure that your boiler is working as efficiently as possible, making it less costly to run. The maximum efficiency differs from boiler to boiler, but it’s worth trying some of our tips <\/strong>to increase efficiency<\/strong> if you’re concerned.<\/p>\n Having your boiler serviced regularly can also help pre-empt any future issues, which can turn from small to big problems if left unattended.
