What Boiler Service Do I Need?

COLCHESTER'S Boiler Service Experts

Not All Boiler Services Are the Same

Every boiler is different, and manufacturers have specific recommendations for how

often and to what extent servicing should be carried out. You can find this information

in your boiler’s installation and servicing manual.

In some cases, manufacturers require a full strip-down service within 5 years —

though some recommend it annually or at set intervals.

For example, if your boiler calls for a full service every five years, you’ll typically need

interim services for the first four years, followed by a full strip-down in the fifth.

Following these guidelines keeps your boiler efficient, safe, and within warranty.


If you're unsure what level of service your boiler requires, feel free to get in touch —

We’ll be happy to advise you based on your boiler manufacturer's recommendations.

What's Included In an Interim Service?

An interim boiler service is a routine check designed to keep your boiler running

safely and efficiently between full strip-down services. It’s ideal for maintaining

performance, spotting early signs of wear, and ensuring everything is working as it

should.


Here’s what’s typically included in an interim boiler service:


✅ Visual inspection of the boiler and flue

✅ Check for leaks, corrosion, or damage

✅ Gas pressure and flow checks

✅ Flue gas analysis to ensure safe combustion

✅ Inspection of safety devices and controls

✅ Cleaning of accessible components

✅ Boiler reset and operational check

✅ System inhibitor levels check

✅ Service record update and recommendations


Cost-£85.00 plus any parts required.

It’s a vital part of keeping your boiler in good health — especially in the years

between more in-depth servicing.

What's Included In A Full Strip Down Service?

A full strip-down boiler service is a more in-depth and thorough maintenance

procedure, typically required at set intervals by the manufacturer (often every 3–5

years, or even annually for some models). It goes well beyond the checks carried out

during an interim service.


Here’s what’s typically included in a full strip-down boiler service:

✅ All interim service checks (visual inspection, flue gas analysis, safety checks, gas

pressure, etc.)

✅ Removal and cleaning of the burner

✅ Cleaning or replacement of ignition electrodes and flame sensor

✅ Inspection and cleaning of the heat exchanger

✅ Condensate trap clean-out

✅ Internal component inspection and cleaning

✅ Seal inspection and replacement if needed

✅ Flue and ventilation inspection

✅ System performance testing

✅ System inhibitor levels check

✅ Update of service records and full service report


A full service helps restore peak efficiency, prevent long-term issues, and keep your

boiler within warranty — making it essential for long-term reliability and safety.

Cost- £125.00 plus any parts required.
