This guide might not qualify you for a CORGI license, but it will familiariae you with the basics and the jargon so that you can ask the right questions and ensure you get the best service.
When the engineer begins work, follow the this guide as a checklist.
- Has he checked the flue output of the gas boiler?.
- Has he inspected the pipework and ventilation of the boiler?.
- Broken parts must be replaced with new components.
- All the parts of the boiler and their proper operation must be checked.
- The key components should be disassembled and then cleaned before reassembly.
These are the basic requirements that the engineers must fulfill before you can consider their work as adequate. It is crucial for you to find out if a heating boiler service company has a CORGI certificate before you even contact them. If they have an advert in the Yellow Pages, the CORGI logo will be displayed there – larger adverts generally indicate the depth of the company’s capital, experience and reputation.
