At Kesselmann, we advocate for regular servicing as a superior alternative to replacing your boiler every decade. Our experience with the boilers we've installed and maintained has shown that with a clean system and consistent annual servicing, your boiler can exceed the typical lifespan estimates found online.
When servicing a boiler, our goal isn't just a brief 10-minute inspection for the sake of ticking a box. Our aim is to proactively prevent breakdowns, ultimately extending the boiler's lifespan.

No, according to Gas Safety Regulations in the UK, it is illegal for individuals without the necessary qualifications to service their own boilers. Working on gas appliances requires expertise and registration with Gas Safe. Attempting to service your boiler without proper qualifications poses safety risks and is against the law. Always seek the assistance of a qualified Gas Safe registered engineer for boiler servicing. If you have questions or need professional service, contact our team on 01482 770650

No, it's not illegal, but regular servicing is essential for safety, efficiency, and warranty compliance. While not a legal requirement, neglecting service may pose risks and affect the warranty. It's a wise choice for the well-being of your home and heating system.
No, we don't check radiators during a boiler service. Our focus is on the boiler itself, ensuring its safety, efficiency, and overall performance. If you have specific concerns about your radiators, feel free to let us know, and we can address them separately.
Skipping yearly boiler service can make it less efficient, cost more to run, and increase the chances of it breaking down. Safety issues might be missed, and your warranty could be affected. Regular servicing keeps it running well, safe, and lasting longer.
