Winter is Coming: Time to Check Your Boiler!
As temperatures begin to drop, it’s natural to cosy up with knitwear, a hot cup of chocolate and the comforting warmth of your home’s heating system. But there’s one thing many of us forget to prepare for – the boiler!
After months of lying dormant, your boiler might have a few unwelcome surprises in store when it’s first fired up for winter. So, before the festive season really sets in, it’s worth making sure everything is running smoothly.
Here are our 3 top tips to keep your boiler in tip-top shape this winter:
1. Control your thermostat
We recommend lowering the temperature during winter to maintain a moderate setting – or opting for a programmable thermostat to automatically adjust your home’s temperature to suit your daily routine
2. Bleed your radiators regularly
Regular radiator bleeding is a great way to increase your boiler’s efficiency and evenly distribute heat. We advise doing this at least once a year – so take this as your sign to find that radiator key!
3. Clean your oil boiler
Preventing dust build up can improve performance and lower heating costs. You can clean the exterior yourself, but let an expert OFTEC registered engineer safely clean the interior.
