Aftercare for Boilers
Your boiler is one of the most useful, and, when not cared for properly, dangerous systems in your house. As any good boiler repair expert will tell you, maintaining your boiler properly will often require a professional. However, all is not lost, as there are plenty of things you can do to keep your boiler in good working order without having any special knowledge. With that in mind, here are boiler maintenance tips that will help you keep warm and safe, while also protecting your wallet.
Get an Annual Boiler Service Done
Very similar to a car, your boiler is an important appliance that does need routine maintenance. So many boiler issues can be prevented with a bit of pre-emptive care. And it should go without saying that should there be a problem that will put you or your family at risk, you will want to know about it and get it sorted out as soon as possible. Furthermore, all qualified boiler technicians should be able to identify and resolve a plethora of problems before they get out of control. Doing this will save you from being caught unaware should your boiler break down due to unaddressed issues, thus leaving you with a cold home and an expensive repair bill.
Keeping the Boiler Ventilated
Boilers do require space in order to work properly. In general, people treat their boiler rooms as extra storage, which is perfectly acceptable, just as long as the stored goods do not start to crowd the boiler itself. Make sure any coats or other items do not get hung over the boiler, and that you leave a good 27-30 inches separation from the wall to make sure that it works properly.
