What a service catches locally
Common boiler & compliance issues in Chessington
01
HMO Gas Safety Records
For licensed HMOs, maintaining a current Gas Safety Certificate is a strict legal requirement. The annual service is the ideal time to conduct the CP12 inspection, ensuring all appliances in each room or unit are tested and the certificate is issued promptly to the managing agent or landlord.
02
Post-War System Updates
Homes from the mid-20th century may have heating systems that are original or have been partially updated. Servicing focuses on checking for obsolete parts, verifying adequate ventilation for older boiler types, and ensuring any new components are correctly integrated.
03
High-Usage Wear and Tear
In HMOs and larger family homes, boilers and water heaters operate for extended periods. This increases wear on components like fans, pumps, and ignition systems. The annual service identifies these worn parts early, allowing for planned maintenance before a failure occurs.
One checklist, every visit
