Make sure your boiler plumber does a proper job
Another heating boiler on the blink, another rogue waiting to ride into town and relieve you of your scarce cash. And what are they getting paid for? People with faulty heating boilers are easy targets for untrustworthy gas engineers trying to cash in on your lack of knowledge. Your heating boiler has been warming your home and heart for years now, but you have absolutely no idea of how it works. The plumbers can easily take you for a ride if you don’t know much about the central heating boiler, so it is important to understand few things about boiler servicing. It won’t earn you a CORGI registration, but it will furnish you with enough knowledge and information to ask questions as they work, and make them think twice about ripping you off.
Keep the following points in mind when the heating engineer starts working.
- Has an analysis of the gas boiler flue been undertaken?.
- The pipework and ventilation should be thoroughly checked.
- Has he replaced all the faulty parts with new purchased parts?.
- Has the engineer tested all the components of the gas boiler and evaluated their functionality?.
- Major systems of the gas boiler must be overhauled thoroughly.
These steps must be performed by your engineer at the very least for you to know the engineer is compliant with the proper standards. Before you even contact a company to service your boiler, you must ensure that they have a recent CORGI certificate. The CORGI logo will appear in their advert if they have bought space in the national Yellow Pages – firms with a bigger advert will generally have more money, more experience and a better reputation. The engineers or cowboys as we call them can not get too far with their below average work and do not spend large sums of money on advertising. New ones will appear to replace the old ones, so with the help of our checklist, be vigilant and prepared before you allow an unknown plumber to perform work.
