Question 1

How often should I service my boiler?

Your boiler should be serviced annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Regular servicing keeps your boiler running efficiently, extends its lifespan, and is usually required to maintain your manufacturer's warranty.

Do landlords need a Gas Safety Certificate?

Yes — it's a legal requirement for all landlords to have a valid Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) for rental properties. This must be renewed annually and a copy given to tenants within 28 days.

Is a powerflush worth it?

Accepted Answer

If your radiators have cold spots, your boiler is making noise, or your heating is slow to warm up, a powerflush can make a huge difference. Sludge buildup causes 20% of boiler breakdowns, so it's also a great preventative measure.
