BOILER SERVICING IN LONDON - REASONS TO BOOK YOURS NOW

To many people, having the boiler serviced is an unnecessary expense that they believe is just something of a corporate con; a way of getting them to part with hard earned cash for something they don't need. In fact, there are many homes around the country that have never had their boilers serviced at all. There is however, a very good reason that a boiler needs servicing, primarily that if not it could end up being in a dangerous or at the very least unreliable state – which makes it more expensive to run over the long term. The paragraphs below expand upon why an annual service (that's right – ANNUAL) is an essential tool in saving the home money and risk.

Firstly, there are hopefully very few of us unaware of the risks of carbon monoxide poisoning. Several people die every year due to this unseen killer and the risks cannot be underestimated. The issue comes down to your boiler not combusting properly and giving off toxic carbon monoxide gases. You cannot see this gas, you cannot taste or smell it so if your boiler is emitting carbon monoxide, you may not realise at all until it is too late (although it is always a good idea to fit a carbon monoxide detector, just in case). The surest way to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning is that of booking the annual boiler service, and making sure it is done so with a qualified engineer. During a service the engineer will check your boiler for dangerous leaks, as well as examining the boiler so that they can identify any potential issues before they become a problem.

Secondly, if you want to pour money down the drain, then go ahead and continue in not having your boiler serviced. That's right, having a service can actually save you a lot of money. This is because boiler efficiency begins to decline over time, due to the boiler getting older and its parts becoming clogged up and dirty.
