FAQ
Your Questions - Answered
How often should I service my boiler?
It’s recommended to service your boiler once a year to ensure it’s running efficiently and safely. Annual servicing helps prevent breakdowns, extends the life of your boiler, and keeps your energy bills lower.
What should I do if I have a leaking pipe?
First, turn off the water supply at the main shut-off valve to prevent further damage. Then, contact a plumber immediately to assess and repair the leak. Temporary fixes like pipe tape can be used in an emergency, but professional repair is crucial.
How can I improve the efficiency of my heating system?
Regular servicing, bleeding radiators, upgrading to a modern, energy-efficient boiler, using a programmable thermostat, and ensuring your home is well-insulated can all improve your heating system's efficiency.
Why is my radiator cold at the bottom?
A radiator cold at the bottom usually indicates a buildup of sludge or debris in the system. Power flushing the heating system can often solve this problem by removing the buildup and restoring full radiator functionality.
What’s the difference between a combi boiler and a conventional boiler?
A combi boiler provides hot water on demand and doesn’t require a separate hot water tank, making it space-efficient. A conventional boiler requires a hot water tank and is better for larger homes with higher hot water demands.

How do I know if my heating system needs replacing?
Signs that your heating system may need replacing include frequent breakdowns, rising energy bills, uneven heating, and if the system is over 15 years old. We can do a professional assessment to determine the best course of action.
Can a plumber also service my gas boiler?
Yes, but make sure they are Gas Safe registered (or RGI in Ireland) to legally work on gas appliances. Always ask for proof of their certification before allowing them to service your gas boiler.
What can I do if my heating isn’t working?
First, check that the thermostat is set correctly, the boiler has power, and the pressure is within the recommended range. If these are all correct, the issue may require a professional diagnosis, so contact a heating engineer.
Why does my water take so long to heat up?
This could be due to an aging boiler, a failing water heater element, or a buildup of sediment in the tank. A professional inspection can identify the cause and recommend repairs or upgrades to improve efficiency.
How can I prevent my heating system from becoming inefficient in the winter?
To maintain energy efficiency during winter, ensure your boiler—whether it’s a gas boiler, oil boiler, or heat pump—is regularly serviced.
- For gas and oil boilers, an annual service ensures they run efficiently and reduces the risk of breakdowns during colder months.
- For heat pumps, check that the outdoor unit is free of ice or debris. Additionally, insulating your home effectively and setting your thermostat to a consistent, energy-efficient temperature can prevent your system from overworking, thereby maintaining efficiency and reducing energy bills.
