When temperatures drop, a reliable heating system becomes essential in every educational environment. From keeping classrooms warm to ensuring the safety of students and staff, school heating systems play a critical role during winter. At Forte Heating Services, we support schools across Farnham, Surrey, and Hampshire with professional winter boiler service, safety checks, and maintenance.

Here’s what school site managers should prioritise this term.

 

1. Book a Winter Boiler Service

A thorough winter boiler service is the foundation of a safe, efficient heating system. Our Gas Safe registered heating engineers inspect boilers, check for carbon monoxide leaks, test pressure and flow, and clean essential components. Servicing reduces the risk of breakdowns, increases energy efficiency, and ensures compliance with health and safety requirements.

 

2. Check Your Gas Safety Records

Every school must hold up-to-date gas safety records. If your last boiler safety check or service was over 12 months ago, now is the time to book. We’ll ensure all checks are correctly logged and provide the necessary documentation for your records and inspections.

 

3. Inspect Radiators and Heating Controls

Cold classrooms often result from faulty thermostats, trapped air in radiators, or broken valves. As part of your maintenance routine, bleed radiators regularly and test temperature controls to avoid uneven heating.

 

4. Plan for Emergencies

Have a contingency plan in place in case of a heating failure. Forte Heating Services offers rapid support throughout Surrey, Hampshire, and Farnham, so schools can minimise downtime and stay open when it matters most.

 

5. Consider Upgrades if Systems Are Outdated

Older boilers not only use more energy but can also be harder to repair and maintain. If your system is inefficient or over 15 years old, it may be time to explore a boiler installation to future-proof your school’s heating.
