It’s important to get your boiler serviced at least once a year. This will also help your boiler to run more efficiently, helping you save on your heating bills and can prevent costly repairs in the future. A service is not just a hoover, it’s a saftey check making sure your boiler is working safe.
When the gas that fuels your boiler isn’t burnt correctly, carbon monoxide is produced. Though this can’t be seen or smelt, it can cause headaches, drowsiness, nausea, breathlessness and even death.
