As summer arrives in Surrey, your heating system may not be at the top of your priority list. However, the warmer months are the perfect time to maintain essential maintenance to ensure your boiler and heating system remain in peak condition for the colder seasons ahead.
Schedule a Boiler Service
Summer is an ideal time to book a professional boiler service. Regular servicing ensures your boiler runs efficiently, helps detect potential issues before they become serious, and extends your heating system’s lifespan. Our Gas Safe registered engineers provide comprehensive servicing in Surrey and Hampshire, ensuring your boiler is winter-ready. Contact us today to schedule your service.
Turn On Your Heating Occasionally
Even during warm months, running your heating system occasionally is beneficial. This prevents components from seizing up due to prolonged inactivity. Turning on your heating for a few minutes every few weeks helps keep your system functioning smoothly.
Bleed Your Radiators
Air can become trapped in your radiators over time, leading to cold spots and reduced efficiency. Bleeding your radiators during the summer ensures even heat distribution when you need your heating again in autumn and winter.
Check Your Boiler Pressure
Low boiler pressure can cause heating inefficiencies or even complete system failure. Checking your boiler pressure during summer allows you to address any issues before the colder months, ensuring optimal performance. If you’re unsure about adjusting your boiler pressure, our experienced engineers can assist.
Insulate Pipes for Year-Round Efficiency
Pipe insulation isn’t just for winter. Properly insulating your pipes can prevent heat loss, improve energy efficiency, and protect against potential issues when the temperature drops again.
Check for Leaks and Strange Noises
If you notice any leaks, strange noises, or other irregularities in your system, it’s crucial to address them early. Ignoring minor issues can lead to costly repairs down the line. Forte Heating provides.
