Here's what happens during a boiler service...
Pre-service Inspection
A comprehensive inspection precedes the service itself. A competent expert will inspect several components, including the boiler's exterior, controls, and pipes. This assessment is intended to discover any visible faults or indicators of wear, providing the framework for targeted maintenance.
Assessing Exterior Components
During this phase, our heating engineers will examine the boiler's exterior for visible symptoms of corrosion or deterioration. This includes inspecting for corrosion, leaks, and broken seals. In addition, the casing is evaluated to assure its security and integrity, as well as any potential safety issues.
Checking Controls and Safety Devices
The functionality of controls and safety devices is critical to the safe running of your boiler. The technician thoroughly inspects thermostats, pressure relief valves, and pressure gauges to ensure their correctness and responsiveness. Any inconsistencies are swiftly resolved to avoid potential malfunctions or safety hazards.
Internal Component Maintenance
After the initial inspection, the focus switches to the boiler's interior components. This stage entails rigorous cleaning, modifications, and, if necessary, replacement of critical components to maximise performance and efficiency.
Cleaning and Descaling
Over time, boilers develop debris, sediment, and mineral deposits, which reduce their efficiency and functioning. Cleaning interior components, such as heat exchangers and burner assemblies, removes these impediments, allowing for more efficient heat transfer and combustion.
Safety checks and performance tests
In addition to maintenance activities, a comprehensive boiler service involves thorough safety checks and performance testing. These metrics are critical for determining the boiler's reliability, recognising potential problems, and guaranteeing compliance with safety regulations.
Flue Gas Analysis
Analysing flue gases provides vital insights into the boiler's combustion process and efficiency. Technicians can check combustion performance and detect anomalies by measuring data such as carbon monoxide levels and oxygen concentration.
Pressure and Leak Testing
Pressure and leak testing are critical elements of boiler safety. Technicians undertake extensive examinations to discover leaks in the system and to ensure the integrity of pressure vessels. Leaks must be repaired as soon as possible to avoid water damage and keep the system running smoothly.
Documentation & Recommendations
As the service nears completion, documentation and recommendations become increasingly important in maintaining transparency and accountability. The technician generates detailed reports that outline the service findings, including any concerns detected and measures done. Furthermore, they may make recommendations for preventive maintenance or improvements to improve the boiler's performance and longevity.
