Does your boiler require servicing?
A central heating survey is not an alternative to getting your boiler serviced. A full boiler service is an important health check of your heating system that should be conducted each year. It’s also necessary for keeping your boiler warranty intact.
It’s the perfect opportunity to get a full boiler service at the same time as your central heating survey, so why not upgrade and book both in the same visit with one of our engineers?
Additionally, a central heating survey is separate from the Gas Safety Record [CP12], which is a certified safety check of your gas appliances and a legal requirement for landlords of tenanted properties. In need of a gas safety check? Get in touch with our qualified team today.
