Why is regular boiler maintenance important?

Instead of waiting until there is a problem with your boiler, servicing it every 3 months will reduce the chances of any serious and expensive breakdowns. Ongoing maintenance of essential heating equipment is integral to keeping certain organizations running efficiently. A boiler breakdown for industries such as hotels, hospital, food manufacturer and other steam applications, is going to have a huge and immediate impact on the business.

Tubman Heating Limited is available 24/7 all year round for emergency boiler and burner repairs, but preventative maintenance can reduce the risk of large scale breakdowns or limit the downtime caused by a breakdown. Quarterly services allow for checks on the boiler, burner and associated equipment for faults, damage, leaks and everyday wear. Cleaning the heating system is an important part of this process as rust and dirt can create extra stresses on the machinery, while allowing our technicians to properly assess all relevant components and their effectiveness. During a service, technicians can recommend upgrades, replacements and improvements to your heating system to ensure your heating system is running optimally.

Keeping your staff and customers safe is of the highest priority for all businesses in New Zealand. In order to do this, heating equipment should be maintained and inspected regularly to ensure it is operating optimally and safely. Incomplete combustion can be hazardous to the environment and damaging to the operation of the burner, therefore our technician will perform a combustion analysis and set the burner for optimal efficiency and safe operation during a service.

Steam boilers require an annual inspection by an authorised inspection agency to verify the ongoing safety of the boiler. Our technician will prepare the boiler for an internal review by the Inspector, followed by a steaming test to verify that the boiler is safe to operate.
