Ensure Safety with Our Gas Boiler Inspection Services

Ensure Safety with Our Gas Boiler Inspection Services

Boilers are an integral part of residential buildings and most businesses. There are different types of boilers, but they all have one thing in common: boilers need regular inspection. This is because issues with a boiler can go unnoticed for a long time, eventually resulting in major boiler breakdowns. The result is a huge rise in the cost of repairing the boiler.

Repair costs can be well into thousands of pounds. Add to that the inconvenience of being deprived of temperature control and hot water, as well as loss of operational days for businesses, and you have a recipe for disaster.

Sounds like a nightmare situation, right? Well, there is a simple solution: we offer the best boiler inspection services that will increase the longevity of your boiler and enable you to save money over time.

Why Are Gas Boiler Inspections Crucial?

Why Are Gas Boiler Inspections Crucial?

You need regular boiler inspections for your home or business for many reasons. Boilers are a vital part of any HAVC system, whether residential or industrial. Getting them repaired is costly, and with regular boiler check-ups, issues can be detected in time. You can nip it in the bud and reduce the cost of getting the boiler fixed.

A regular inspection can also help determine whether your boiler is performing efficiently. Even if the boiler is working fine, it may be wasting energy. A boiler check-up can help highlight such problems as well. You can save on energy costs by optimizing the efficiency of your boiler.

The process can significantly increase the lifespan of your boiler. A boiler is not a small investment, and any such investment requires regular upkeep.

Neglecting boiler maintenance can cost you much more than a high repair bill or a significant increase in the cost of utilities. Failure to have your boiler inspected by a professional can have hazardous consequences.

Boiler pressure vessels can become damaged over time and lead to such problems as overheating, steam overload, and leakage of scalding hot water. In the worst-case scenario, your boiler may even explode. A gas leak may be present even if the boiler's pressure vessels are working fine. Carbon monoxide gas is tough to detect, and a leak may go unnoticed until it is too late.

Aside from the cost savings and extending your boiler life, boiler inspection is also a legal requirement. In the UK, businesses and landlords must get an annual Gas Safety Certificate. This ensures that the gas connections within a property are functioning well and there are safety concerns. Part of the inspection includes boiler inspection. It is hard to overestimate the benefits of annual boiler inspections, which only add up over time.

Our Gas Boiler Inspection Services

We offer the most comprehensive boiler inspection services out there. Our team provides the following gas boiler inspection services:

Visual inspection

A visual inspection consists of an in-depth look into the different parts of the boiler. Our gas safety engineers carefully examine each boiler component, from the safety valves to the pressure level gauges, to see whether everything works. Damage to any parts is noted so further inspection can be done. This helps to gauge the intensity of the issue at hand.

Flue Inspection

The pipe that connects the boiler to the property is of major significance. This is why flue inspection is an additional step. Our gas safety engineer will inspect the flue for any indications of damage. Doing this will let you know if you need to get the flu fixed.

Operational Check-up

Our expert will check how well your boiler works and whether all the controls are fully functional. It is essential to see the operational performance of the boiler.

Bracket Stability Examination

The safety of gas appliances is partially tied to how effectively they are installed. We do an in-depth check to ensure that all brackets and mountings are solid and fit to safety standards.

Cleaning and Repair Services

Aside from inspecting and highlighting potential issues, we also offer cleaning and repair services. A deep clean of the boiler and its components is necessary to prevent build-up and keep your boiler in good shape.

Common Boiler Issues and Solutions

Here are some common problems that boilers encounter and ways to resolve them:

Leakage

Boiler leakage is a common problem caused by damaged pipes. Boiler pipes contain hot water and become corroded over time. This can lead to holes through which water or steam starts to leak.
This is a quick fix, as faulty pipes can be repaired or replaced, depending on the damage amount. Leakages also result in low boiler pressure, which means your boiler is not producing enough steam so the heating system can work properly.

Build-up

You may hear strange noises from your boiler. If that is the case, then it may mean that there is a limescale build-up. The obstruction caused by the build-up prevents the efficient flow of water and steam and may even lead to excessive pressure on the boiler.
Regular boiler check-ups can prevent such an issue as you will be informed whether you need to get your boiler serviced. Boiler servicing and cleaning removes build-up so your boiler remains working correctly through the years.

Faulty Components

Parts of the boiler may become damaged and faulty, leading to a failure of the boiler. Repairs involve finding out which part is causing the issue and replacing or fixing it. For example, the radiator may need 'bleeding' to work properly.

Frozen Pipes

Pipes, especially the condensate pipes, can become frozen in winter. Since the condensate pipe takes out the waste, it can adversely affect the boiler's working when it is not performing its function.
A gas safety engineer will remove the ice and let the contents of the pipe thaw. Getting the condensate pipe insulated is better for the long-term prevention of this issue.
