Keeping your central heating healthy through the winter

15.12.17

Make sure your central heating system is fully functional to warm your home this winter

With the recent weather conditions, heating across the UK has become a hot topic. From the workplace to the comfort of your own home, almost every property in the UK will have cranked their thermostats up in the past few weeks.

Whilst this seems like a logical move, did you stop to consider the health of your central heating system?

Make sure your central heating is working properly

Arguably, your system has most likely been switched off since March time, meaning that your central heating may not be fully functioning for the winter time.

During the period of inactivity over the summer, your pipes and other elements of your system can become damaged, clogged or malfunctioned. What this means is when you turn your heating on during the winter, your central heating is not as beneficial to you and your property as it could be.

We recommend keeping an eye out for these potential faults with your central heating system:

1)    Heating is slow to warm up
2)    Radiators have cold spots
3)    Boiler is excessively noisy
4)    Hot water is cloudy in appearance

Powerflush Solution

If you experience any of these symptoms with your heating system, we would recommend calling in an engineer to carry out a powerflush to your system. Our team of plumbers are on call for jobs across Cheshire in Warrington, Frodsham, Chester, Runcorn and more locations.

A powerflush is a smart investment to make sure your system is running properly, as it removes the sludge build up in your pipes, which reduces damage and the likelihood of a fault.

We also advise having your central heating checked annually so that you can rest assured that your home is heated safely and effectively.

To help you out with your heating needs, our accredited heating engineers are on hand 24-hours a day, even during the winter, to help you out with emergency repairs in your home.

We don’t want any of our customers to be without heating, especially with how the weather has been lately, so we are determined to help avoid a breakdown situation caused by neglected heating systems.

If you’re concerned about the health of your boiler and central heating system, or just want to have your system checked by a specialist, get in contact with us today.
