Winter may seem like a little while away yet, but did you know that the summer months are the BEST time to get your boiler serviced?
Why?
Well, in this article, we plan to answer that question for you.
Boilers benefit enormously from an annual service, but as long as it happens every year, does it really matter when it happens?
Although it doesn’t really matter from a practical standpoint, there are convenience and financial advantages that might just convince you that shifting your boiler servicing into the summer/autumn is worthwhile.
It makes sure your boiler is ready for winter.
The majority of boiler issues occur throughout the winter while turning on the heating after it is turned off for the summer.
Having it serviced in the summer will ensure that it is in working order when you switch on the heating in the winter.
It’s more convenient.
When you aren’t as dependent on the heating as you would be in the winter, having work done on a problem is far less disruptive.
