Boiler Servicing Godstone, Readings and Records
Heating Services ltd, a heating and plumbing company based in Oxted, Surrey, covers boiler servicing in Godstone and other towns across London, Surrey and Kent. A proper boiler service measures combustion with a flue gas analyser and checks the burner, seals, flue and safety devices, with a written record left.
Is a boiler service more than a quick look?
A proper service involves readings, not a visual check. The flue gases are analysed and the combustion figures written down. The burner, seals, heat exchanger, gas pressure, flue and safety devices are all inspected.
Heating Services ltd uses Gas Safe registered engineers for servicing and completes a written record each time. Anything that needs work is quoted separately, and nothing chargeable is done on the day without asking.
What's the average lifespan of a boiler?
Most modern gas boilers last somewhere around 10 to 15 years, and annual servicing is the biggest single factor in reaching the top of that range. Sludge in the system water shortens it more than anything else, which is why a magnetic filter is worth having.
What is an unvented hot water cylinder?
A sealed, mains fed cylinder that delivers hot water at the same pressure as the cold. There is no need for a shower pump, and two bathrooms can draw at the same time. With no cold tank in the loft, the space is yours again.
Being a pressurised vessel, it may only be fitted and serviced under the rules. The engineers at Heating Services ltd hold the relevant unvented qualification and provide the paperwork. The mains flow is tested first, because the cylinder is only as good as the supply.
Is a 12 year old boiler considered old?
It is getting on, but it is not necessarily finished. A 12 year old boiler that has been serviced every year can have useful life left. Watch for more frequent faults, harder to source parts and repair bills that keep climbing.
What registration should a heating firm hold?
Heating Services ltd has its gas work carried out by Gas Safe registered engineers, and the company is a Checkatrade member. It has worked out of Oxted since 2008.
By law, paid work on a gas boiler, hob or fire needs a Gas Safe registered engineer. Ask for the engineer's card and check the licence number with the register. The card also lists which kinds of appliance that engineer is qualified to work on.
