Maximise energy efficiency to avoid unnecessary boiler repairs
Newer boilers generally offer more efficient heating for your household than older units. Indeed, households with boilers older than 15 years should ideally look to having them replaced in order to maximise the household energy efficiency.
However, even with these newer boiler models, there are a number of tips on boiler positioning and operation that can improve its efficiency and minimise the cost of boiler repairs.
When having a new boiler installed or when scheduling an annual boiler service, it is advisable that you double check that the correct piping size has been used. This will optimise the distribution of heat throughout the house and help reduce energy wastage.
In addition, positioning the boiler in the most suitable location, such as the kitchen or bathroom, will also help to ensure that heating is evenly distributed. Also, turning the boiler thermostat down by 1°C, especially during warmer periods, can help cut the costs associated with central heating by at least 10%.
Scheduling an annual boiler service will help to prevent corrosion and sediment build-up, as well as pre-empt any potential faults. In the event that your boiler does begin to malfunction, it is recommended that you contact a certified boiler service and repair specialist to undertake the repairs. This will ensure that the boiler continues to function safely and efficiently.
