Boiler Servicing
Your central heating system is at the heart of your home. Look after it properly to keep it healthy and working efficiently. Getting your boiler serviced regularly by the team at Aquatec NW can make a huge difference to its performance and lifespan. Plus, it could save you money on your energy bills and most importantly keep everyone in your home safe.
If your boiler is under its manufacturer’s guarantee or warranty then they normally state you are required to have it serviced once a year to validate either the guarantee or warranty.
It can be expensive replacing your boiler and ideally it is something that you should only plan if your boiler is over 10 – 12 years old. If you are encountering frequent breakdowns, repairs to your boiler can become really costly. Here at Aquatec NW we offer boiler replacements from some of the UK’s leading boiler brands. These include Ideal, Worcester Bosch & Viessmann. We also offer a range of finance options, should you need it.

Boiler Servicing FAQ
How often should my boiler be serviced?
We recommend that you should get your boiler serviced annually to ensure it’s working properly. If your boiler is faulty it could result in your wasting a lot of money as it may start to leak carbon monoxide. As the poisonous gas is colourless and scentless, it can be difficult to tell if your appliances start to leak - therefore, it’s incredibly important to get a Gas Safe Registered engineer to check them.
Do I need a boiler service to protect my guarantee or warranty?
Yes, a lot of boiler manufacturers will request that you have a boiler service every year to validate either the guarantee or warranty.
What happens during the boiler service?
We will carry out a thorough check of your boiler to ensure it's in working order. We'll make sure that there's no leaks or corrosion, inspections of main parts and carry out tests to check for unsafe fumes.
What is a Gas Safety check?
All gas appliances in your property need to be safety checked by a Gas Safe registered engineer annually and serviced according to manufacturer’s instructions. Any appliance left unchecked could leave you at risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.
