All gas safe engineers should follow a set number of checks and actions when you boiler is due for it’s service. These include:

·     A visual inspection of the flue

·     Inspection and, where necessary, cleaning of the burner, combustion chamber, any injectors and heat exchanger

·     Inspection of ignition devices i.e. pilot lights and/ or spark and flame sensing electrodes

·     Checking the integrity of all seals and gaskets

·     Ensure that any condensate traps and drains are free from debris

·     Testing the appliance in accordance with the manufacturer’s instruction to ensure:

• The heat input and/or operating pressure are correct
• The effectiveness of the flue 
• That all ventilation requirements are to current standards 
• The correct operation of all safety devices and that the boiler is safe for continuous use

·     A final combustion analysis and measurement against tolerances set by the manufacturer’s instructions

·     A test of all disturbed gas connections

·     Carry out functional testing of heating and hot water

·     A visual inspection of any other encountered gas appliances

·     Written notification of any gas safety defects which may affect the safe operation of your appliances

·     An assessment of your current heating controls and best practice advice regarding energy efficiency

·     Heating controls and best practice advice regarding energy efficiency

·     The servicing of a system filter (if there is already one in place). We will however not repair or replace a system filter.
