During the summer, most of us don’t think much about the boiler that keeps our building comfortable and safe all year long. Most of us don’t give the boiler much thought until it’s time to turn it on for the season.
By having your boiler checked regularly by a professional, you can be sure that it runs safely and efficiently, and that you won’t be faced with expensive emergency repairs down the line.
Here is why you should stay up to date with your boiler repairs:
- You Can Stop Problems Before They Become Disasters – Boiler systems are large and complex, heating a structure and running crucial water systems. When things go wrong, they can go wrong in ways that cost a lot of money to repair. A professional company will spot irregularities in your system and provide solutions for problems before disaster strikes.
- Energy Bills – A poorly maintained boiler can result in higher energy bills for you and your tenants. For example, if a boiler is not running correctly, it will use more energy in order to heat the water inside the tank.
- Boiler Replacement is Expensive – If your boiler is not in good working condition, you may have to replace it. If a certified technician tests your boiler and performs maintenance each year, it will work better and last longer.
- You Could Void Your Warranty – If you recently purchased your boiler, it is probably still under warranty. According to your warranty agreement, you may need an annual boiler service from a professional boiler technician. Without the service within twelve months of purchase and after that annually, your warranty could be voided.
- Your Boiler Can Become Dangerous – Carbon monoxide poisoning can be a real threat when a boiler is left broken down.
