Give your heating system some TLC this summer
With the recent sunny spells and warm weather, your boiler may be the last thing on your mind. However, summer is actually the perfect time to start thinking about your heating system!
Martyn Bridges, our Director of External Affairs, joins SoGlos to discuss all things boiler maintenance, explaining why summer is the perfect time to get your boiler serviced.
Martyn says:
"The summer is normally the best time of year to get your heating system serviced. Firstly, engineers are far less busy in the warmer months because there are far fewer breakdowns. Naturally people need engineers less in summer, meaning appointments and spare parts are more readily available. It also means you are ready for when it is time to turn the heating on. There is nothing worse than switching the heating on when you need it, to discover there is an issue. It could take time to get rectified, so being prepared by having a summer service should be essential."
Book your service
Booking a boiler service once every 12 months gives you the best chance of spotting any faults before they become a breakdown. You can find about more about boiler servicing and book yours here.
