Penicuik Boiler Servicing, Repairs and Replacement

Boiler Service Penicuik Scotland (EH26): A key maintenance job that you must routinely do on a yearly basis, if you've got an oil or gas boiler, is to get it professionally serviced. This advice is however ignored by many home owners in Penicuik, and actually throughout the United Kingdom where approximately one third of householders neglect to do an annual boiler service. The fact that you've got an extended warranty on your boiler does not preclude the necessity for a regular annual boiler service, and it could in reality nullify your guarantee if you fail to do this.

Obviously, the primary reason that you ought to get this done, isn't due to obligation, but on the grounds that it is crucial to keep your boiler in perfect working order.

This stipulation is not only limited to domestic home owners, seeing as landlords in Penicuik must have their gas boilers serviced each year when they're renting. This is going to be even more important for landlords in Penicuik, because safety certificates are a necessity for people who are renting, and there are serious consequences for those who don't have one. Annual landlord safety certificates are required for gas boilers which are located in rented residences. Oil water boilers are different in that they must be frequently serviced, but haven't any legal requirement for a safety certificate at this moment.

Before the development of modern condensing boilers it wasn't quite so crucial to have them serviced every twelve months. Those older boilers were significantly easier and less expensive to maintain and did not have so many components. Having them serviced regularly was still beneficial however, but not so much as is the case with the more elaborate modern boilers, which have got more parts but are at the same time more efficient and economical.

Electric Boiler Service Penicuik

Not everybody chooses to use gas for their hot water and heating needs, and there are still some homes in Penicuik that don't have a mains gas supply. For those who don't use gas, there are a number of alternatives, such as oil, solid fuel, biomass or LPG boilers, and another popular choice is the electric boiler.

Bio-mass boilers have become more and more popular in Penicuik over the last few years, mainly on account of the increasing demand for green energy. Functioning much like conventional oil and gas fired boilers, biomass boilers emit lower levels of carbon as they burn pellets composed of sustainable plant and wood waste. Comparable to and often cheaper in regards to running costs, biomass boilers do have the drawback to being higher priced and larger than everyday oil, electric or gas boilers. The pellets that biomass boilers are fuelled with are produced from various, readily available waste materials including industrial waste, sawdust, agricultural crop waste, fast-growing/renewable lumber and chipped forestry waste. Bio-mass boilers have the added appeal that they fall under the RHI scheme, whereby you'll get paid back by the Government for heat you produce for the next seven years.

Biomass boilers, much like any other central heating boilers, need servicing routinely to make sure they're working effectively. To help you with the maintenance, repair and servicing of your eco-friendly biomass boiler, there are a few specialist companies in the Penicuik and Scotland area.
