Annual Boiler Servicing Process at Frank Finn
Before you hire Frank Finn, it is important that you are aware of our annual boiler servicing process so that you know what to expect. The entire process is explained below for the convenience of our customers.
1. Our engineers at Frank Finn will use protective sheets and shoes to protect your floors or carpets during the serviceWe then begin our visual check to ensure that that the boiler, its pipework and the flue are positioned and installed correctly. We examine the boiler both internally and externally.
2. We check if the boiler is operating as expected and that it is getting ventilated properly.
3. Our team will then remove the boiler casing to take a look at things at a deeper level. This step is carried out to ensure your safety and to check the boiler’s efficiency. In this step, Frank Finn’s engineers will inspect your boiler to see if
- Gas pressure and flow is right
- The boiler is burning the correct amount of gas and air. A flue gas analyzer may be used for this purpose.
- Fans are working appropriately
- All electrical connections and electrodes are in good conditionNo seals are damaged
- The pipework is not blocked or leaking
4. Our engineers will then carry out a number of safety checks to ensure that everything is working in accordance with GSIUR 1998 standards.
5. If they find something is not working smoothly or some gas safety requirement is not being fulfilled, they will inform you and suggest the required repairs or replacements. If they have repaired or replaced any component of the boiler, they will inform you about it and also explain why it had to be done.
