Do I have to have my boiler serviced?  

Whilst you do not have to have your boiler serviced annually it is highly recommended as not only does it prolong the life of the appliance it can help prevent breakdowns and leaks.

If your system is fossil fuel burning appliance any appliance left unchecked could leave you at risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. Some symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are:

• Tiredness
  
• Nausea
  
• Headaches
  
• Vomiting
  
• Dizziness
  

Gas Safe also advises that it is an extremely good idea to have your gas pipework inspected at the same time as having a gas safety check, every year and its law if you’re a landlord.
