Boiler Servicing Tailored to Your Schedule. At Swerdna Services, we advise you to get your boiler serviced regularly to make sure it’s working properly and to comply with most manufacturers’ warranty terms and conditions.
Regular boiler servicing is crucial to ensure your boiler operates safely and efficiently. Poorly maintained or faulty boilers can pose severe health risks, including the potential for fatal carbon monoxide poisoning or gas leaks. Therefore, an annual boiler service is essential for maintaining the smooth and safe operation of your boiler.
Carbon Monoxide Danger: A malfunctioning boiler not only wastes energy but can also emit poisonous carbon monoxide. Since this gas is colorless and odorless, detecting a carbon monoxide leak from your appliances is challenging. Hence, it’s advisable to have them serviced annually by a Gas Safe Registered engineer to ensure your safety.

Swerdna's Leak Detection Process
Initial Inspection :
The boiler service process typically begins with an initial inspection by a qualified technician. This inspection involves a visual assessment of the boiler’s external components and controls. The technician checks for any signs of damage, leaks, or corrosion. This initial examination sets the stage for a comprehensive assessment of the entire system.
Safety Checks :
Safety is paramount in boiler servicing. Gas boilers, in particular, require careful attention to ensure they operate securely. During the service, the technician will check for gas leaks, carbon monoxide emissions, and any other potential safety hazards. They will also verify that the boiler’s ventilation and flue systems are functioning correctly to prevent the buildup of harmful gases.
Component Inspection and Cleaning:
Boilers consist of various components, including burners, heat exchangers, and valves. These components are inspected for wear and tear, damage, or blockages that may hinder the boiler’s performance. Cleaning is an essential part of the process, as dirt and debris can accumulate over time and reduce efficiency. Technicians will clean and, if necessary, replace components to ensure the boiler operates optimally.
Repairs and Replacement:
If any issues or defects are discovered during the service, the technician will address them promptly. This may involve making minor repairs, replacing faulty components, or recommending further action if significant problems are detected. Timely repairs help prevent more extensive and costly issues down the road.
Verification of Compliance:
Boiler servicing must adhere to safety and regulatory standards. Gas boilers, for instance, must be serviced by Gas Safe registered engineers to ensure compliance with legal requirements. Technicians will verify that the boiler meets all relevant safety and environmental regulations, providing peace of mind to homeowners.
Documentation and Recommendations:
A thorough service includes proper documentation of the work performed. Technicians will provide you with a service report detailing the findings, actions taken, and any recommendations for future maintenance or improvements. This documentation serves as a valuable reference and helps track the boiler’s condition over time.
