Why Summer Is the Best Time to Get Your Boiler Serviced
When the sun’s out and the heating’s off, your boiler is probably the last thing on your mind. But getting your annual boiler service done in the summer months is actually one of the smartest moves you can make.
Here’s why:
1. Beat the Autumn Rush
Come September, everyone remembers their boiler — and engineers get booked up fast. Getting yours serviced in summer means no waiting, no last-minute panic, and plenty of appointment flexibility.
2. Spot Issues Before You Need the Heating
A summer service helps catch problems before you really rely on your heating. Small faults, leaks, or worn parts can be fixed early — saving you from breakdowns during a cold snap.
3. Keep Your Warranty Valid
Most boiler warranties require annual servicing by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Skipping a year — or leaving it too late — could void your cover when you need it most.
4. Prevent Costly Repairs
Regular servicing helps prevent issues like pressure loss, sludge build-up, or faulty seals. Just like a car, prevention is cheaper than repair — and it keeps your boiler running efficiently for longer.
5. Peace of Mind All Year Round
A serviced boiler is a safer boiler. Carbon monoxide checks, pressure tests and safety inspections ensure your system’s not just working — it’s working safely.
