24-Hour Emergency Boiler Service in Richmond Upon Thames
Annual Boiler Service
Annual boiler service is essential for the safety of your family and to guarantee that all of your heating and hot water demands are addressed in efficiently and in a dependable manner. You may rely on our team of highly experienced professionals to complete this task quickly and efficiently.
This is what our comprehensive boiler service entails.
The first thing we do is visually evaluate your appliance for leaks, rust, and other issues.
- We disassemble the burner to inspect it. We’ll inspect it for cracks and flaws. In addition, before reinstalling the burner, we will clean it and repair the seal.
- Our local boiler engineers will look after the major components of your boiler. We will clean the condensate trap and magnetic filter, as well as remove any debris from the heat exchanger.
- In addition, we will evaluate the condensate system to verify there are no leaks. The boiler’s venting system will also be examined.
- We will inspect the water quality and conduct flue gas analysis to guarantee that your boiler is working at peak efficiency.
- We will also perform all of the gas safety inspections so that you and your family are safe.
You can keep your manufacturer’s warranty active by using our annual service. In addition, we offer a service warranty to ensure that our clients and customers are satisfied. Depending on the circumstances, it can last anywhere from three to twelve months.
One-Off Boiler Service
If you suspect that something is amiss with your boiler and that it requires immediate attention from a specialist, you can take advantage of our one-time boiler services. All you have to do is make an appointment with us, and we will send a technician to you on the agreed-upon day. We can assist you with any request, whether your boiler is damaged, your heating system need a power cleanse, or your radiator valves require replacement.
Before doing any service, our specialist will inquire about the nature of your problem. We will also completely inspect your boiler by carrying out all of the measures outlined in the preceding section (annual boiler service). We will also make every effort to resolve any issues with your boiler and central heating.
During the boiler repair process, we will ensure that your boiler is operating safely and effectively. If your boiler is not working properly, it puts strain on all of the components, and if they fail, you may end up with leaks and holes in the boiler, necessitating the purchase of a new boiler. As a result, it is well worth getting it serviced not only once a year, but whenever you discover a problem.
Gas and Electric Boiler Service
We not only execute annual gas safety checks and boiler servicing, but we also maintain and repair electric boilers. Electric boilers and hot water products, like gas boilers, require frequent inspection and maintenance by a professional licensed engineer.
Even though annual servicing for electric boilers, even for an electric combi boiler for example, is optional, it is still strongly recommended. It is vital not only for maintaining the boiler functioning properly, but also for keeping it safe.
You can rely on our heating professionals to complete a full safety check, inspection, and testing of all essential components of your boiler. You can also contact us if you experience a boiler breakdown. You can rely on our committed team of specialists to help you with boiler repair and to keep your heating and hot water working smoothly.
Gas Safety Inspection Checks
Our organization is legally permitted to conduct a gas safety inspection on your property. Only a qualified engineer should conduct such an inspection once or twice a year. An annual gas safety check, on the other hand, is performed to ensure that all of your gas appliances are working safely and properly, as opposed to annual boiler service, which is particular to your boilers.
What to expect from our gas safety check service?
- Checking the gas meter to ensure there are no gas leaks
- Checking the smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detector
- Checking the operation of your boiler through a flue gas analyser
- Checking the readings and adjusting your boil if needed
- Checking the gas cooker and gas fire to ensure their safe operation.
As a professional central heating company, we are able to complete both tasks, boiler service and safety inspection check, in just one visit. All work will be done by our Gas Safe registered engineers.
