If you are noticing issues with your boiler, such as low pressure, signs of overheating or a leak, arrange an engineer to take a look as soon as possible - don’t wait for your annual inspection. The possibility of gas leaks and carbon monoxide means that faulty boilers are a health risk, so it’s better to pick up an issue early and fix it quickly than for it to get worse and become a potentially dangerous and costly problem.
If possible, try to arrange your boiler service during quieter periods of the year. In colder, winter months, where demand is higher, it may be harder to arrange an inspection date. It’s also better to fix any issues during summer months when you require less heating for your home.
