Annual Boiler Service in Beckenham
Servicing your conventional or combi boiler annually is vital for the safety of your family and to ensure all your heating and hot water needs are met in an efficient, reliable manner. You can trust our team of trained professionals to handle this task efficiently and effectively.
This is what our comprehensive boiler service entails.
- Our first step is to visually inspect your appliance for leaks, corrosion, and other problems.
- We take the burner apart to examine it. We will check it for any cracks and defects. In addition, we will clean the burner and replace the seal before putting it back in place.
- Our technicians will take care of your boiler’s main components. We will remove any debris from the heat exchanger, as well as clean properly the condensate trap and magnetic filter.
- We will also check the condensate system to make sure no leaks are present. The boiler’s ventilation system will also be examined.
- We will evaluate the water quality and perform flue gas analysis to ensure your boiler is operating at its optimal level.
- We will also do all of the gas safety checks so you can rest assured that you and your family are secure.
By using our annual service, you will ensure that your manufacturer’s warranty remains valid. In addition to that, we provide a service warranty to make sure our customers are satisfied. It can last from three to twelve months depending on the certain situation.

We can help you whatever your request is – whether your boiler is broken, your heating system needs power flush or your radiator valves need replacement.
Before our specialist starts any work they will ask you about the problem you have. We will also thoroughly inspect your boiler by following all the steps listed in the section above (annual boiler service). Regular boiler servicing can help prevent problems, but eventually things will break down to some extent. We will also do our best to resolve all problems with your boiler and central heating.
During our boiler repair process, we will make sure that your boiler is running safely and as efficiently as it should. If your boiler is not working properly, it starts putting pressure on all of the components, and if they start to fail, you may end up with leaks and holes in the boiler, and you may need a new boiler. Therefore, it is definitely worth getting it serviced not only annually, but whenever you notice a problem.

Gas and Electric Boiler Service
In addition to performing annual gas safety checks and gas boiler servicing, we also provide maintenance and repairs to electric boilers. Just as with a gas boiler, electric heating and hot water products require regular checking and maintenance by professional heating engineers based in Beckenham.
Even though annual servicing is optional for electric boilers, it is still highly recommended. It is essential not only because it will keep the boiler running smoothly, but also as a means of keeping it safe.

Gas safety inspection checks
Our company can legally carry out a gas safety inspection check at your property. Such an inspection must be done every year only by qualified gas engineers. But unlike annual boiler service which is specific to your boiler, an annual gas safety check is done to ensure that all of your gas appliances are running safely and properly.
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.

Why is it important to get your boiler serviced annually?
- To keep your boiler’s warranty valid. If your boiler is still covered by warranty, you must have it serviced. If you do not do it, your boiler warranty is null and void. Certain boiler warranties can only be claimed if you adhere to the manufacturer’s servicing instructions.
- To ensure your boiler is working at its most efficient. It is essential that your boiler works at its most efficient from an environmental as well as from an economical point of view. A faulty boiler can waste energy.
- General peace of mind. It is one of the most common reasons why people call boiler and heating professionals. You want to make sure you, your family, and your loved ones are safe. You want to make sure your boiler operates properly and safely.
- To avoid costly repairs. A boiler service should be performed annually. Even though it may seem counterintuitive to have a boiler service performed on something that is currently working perfectly, doing so can aid in the early detection of any possible problems. Thus, you will be able to avoid more costly repairs.
