Inside a Boiler Service in Godstone
Heating Services ltd, a heating and plumbing company based in Oxted, Surrey, covers boiler servicing in Godstone and other towns across London, Surrey and Kent. A proper boiler service measures combustion with a flue gas analyser and checks the burner, seals, flue and safety devices, with a written record left.
What should a proper annual boiler service include?
A real service is measured, not a glance and a sticker. The flue gases are analysed and the combustion figures written down. Checks cover the flue, the seals, the burner, the heat exchanger, the gas pressure and the safety devices.
Heating Services ltd uses Gas Safe registered engineers for servicing and completes a written record each time. Any repair found is quoted on its own, and no chargeable work is done without your say so.
What's the average lifespan of a boiler?
Most modern gas boilers last somewhere around 10 to 15 years, and annual servicing is the biggest single factor in reaching the top of that range. Sludge in the system water shortens it more than anything else, which is why a magnetic filter is worth having.
Would an unvented cylinder suit a Godstone home?
An unvented cylinder is a sealed tank fed from the mains, giving hot water at mains pressure. There is no need for a shower pump, and two bathrooms can draw at the same time. Losing the loft tank frees the space as well.
It is a pressurised vessel, so installation and servicing are regulated work. Heating Services ltd engineers hold the unvented qualification and leave the paperwork with you. Mains flow is checked first, since a weak supply cannot feed one properly.
Is a 12 year old boiler considered old?
It is getting on, but it is not necessarily finished. A 12 year old boiler that has been serviced every year can have useful life left. Watch for more frequent faults, harder to source parts and repair bills that keep climbing.
How can you check a gas engineer before they work in your Godstone home?
Every gas job at Heating Services ltd is done by Gas Safe registered engineers, and Heating Services ltd is a Checkatrade member. It has worked out of Oxted drain unblocking since 2008.
By law, paid work on a gas boiler, hob or fire needs a Gas Safe registered engineer. The engineer's card carries a number you can check against the register online. The back of the card shows the appliance types they are qualified for.
