What We Check During a Boiler Service in Great Baddow

When you book a boiler service in Great Baddow, Chelmsford, our engineers follow a detailed inspection and testing process, which includes:

1. Visual Inspection

We check for signs of wear, corrosion, or leaks on the boiler and surrounding pipework. We also ensure that ventilation requirements are met and the installation is safe.

2. Operational Checks

We run the boiler to check that it starts up correctly, runs smoothly, and responds to controls such as thermostats and timers.

3. Gas Pressure & Flow Testing

We measure the gas pressure to ensure your boiler is receiving the correct supply and that it’s burning fuel efficiently.

4. Flue & Combustion Analysis

Using specialist equipment, we check the flue for blockages and test the combustion gases to make sure your boiler is burning fuel safely and cleanly.

5. Component Cleaning

Key components such as the burner, heat exchanger, and ignition system are cleaned to remove any dirt or debris that could affect performance.

6. Safety Device Testing

We test all safety devices including pressure relief valves, thermostats, and flame sensors to ensure they’re functioning correctly.

7. Seals & Joints Inspection

We check all seals and joints for wear or damage, replacing any that are faulty to prevent leaks.

8. Condensate Trap & Pipe Check

For condensing boilers, we inspect and clean the condensate trap and check the pipework to prevent blockages.

9. Documentation & Recommendations

We provide a full service report detailing the work carried out and advise on any repairs or improvements needed.
