Gas Boiler Service, Warrington Plumber

Many people do not have a gas boiler service by a competent engineer until it goes wrong, and with the current economic climate a lot of homeowners and landlords are cutting back on Gas servicing and safety checks, which for landlords is illegal as they must ensure the safety of any tenants living in their premises by having a registered gas engineer carry out an annual safety check, and any servicing that is required. In either case this is false economy and also dangerous practice. Some older gas boilers could easily be leaking the products of combustion into your room and you would not know until it puts you in hospital or kills you if you not carry out a gas boiler service on a regular basis.

This is often referred to as ‘the silent killer’ since CO (Carbon Monoxide) fumes are particularly dangerous because you cannot see, smell or taste the them, which in extreme cases can kill without warning in a matter of hours, badly maintained gas appliances are one of the biggest causes, hence the reason that an annual gas boiler service is extremely important. Whilst it does not remove the need to carry out an annual gas boiler service ,at Plumbflow Ltd we recommend protecting yourself from the silent killer with an audible CO alarm which will alert any occupants of a possible CO leak, we can supply and fit this device for you and they are not expensive.

To guarantee your safety a gas boiler service is recommended from a Gas Safe registered engineer and Plumbflow Ltd are Gas Safe registered central heating engineers which you can verify by asking us to show our Gas Safe I.D. card or checking our registration by visiting the Gas Safe website. A gas boiler service will identify any potential problems that can be caused from poorly maintained appliances, at a minimal cost.
