Annual boiler service from £120. System boiler specialists. G3 qualified engineers for unvented cylinder checks. HHIC checklist on every visit. Certificate emailed same day. The complete annual service for Formby's larger homes.
Fixed prices. No hidden charges. No call-out fee. System boilers serviced at the same price as combi boilers. Unvented cylinder annual check available on the same visit.
If a fault is found during the service we explain it clearly and give you a written repair quote before any additional work begins. No surprise charges. No work started without your approval.
A standard 45-minute combi boiler service is not sufficient for many of Formby's larger properties. Here is what a complete annual service looks like for L37's most common heating configurations.
For smaller Formby properties with a single bathroom and a combi boiler, the standard annual service covers combustion gas analysis, gas pressure and flow rate, burner and heat exchanger inspection, flue integrity check, safety device testing, system pressure check, inhibitor test and top-up, magnetic filter clean and full function test. Benchmark updated and service certificate emailed same day. This is correct and complete for a single-zone combi boiler property.
System boilers are common in Formby's 3 to 5 bedroom properties and are paired with hot water cylinders. A complete system boiler service includes everything in the combi service plus zone valve testing and operation, pump condition and flow assessment, motorised valve function and timing, cylinder thermostat accuracy check, expansion vessel pressure verification and all heating circuit zone controls. For properties with underfloor heating zones, each zone circuit and its controls is checked. Engineers who primarily service combi boilers may not carry out these additional checks, or may attempt to charge extra for them. We include them at the same £120 fixed price.
If your Formby home has an unvented hot water cylinder, also known as a mains pressure cylinder, it requires an annual safety inspection that is separate from your boiler service. This is not optional and it is not the same as a boiler service. The annual cylinder check must be carried out by a G3 qualified engineer and covers the pressure relief valve condition and operation, expansion vessel pressure, temperature and pressure relief valve integrity, thermostat accuracy, immersion heater condition and overall cylinder integrity. Failure to have this inspection carried out annually can void your cylinder warranty and, more importantly, means you have no professional confirmation that these safety components are operating correctly.
We service both your boiler and your unvented cylinder on the same visit. Both the boiler service certificate and the cylinder check record are issued the same day. All our engineers hold G3 qualification for this work, a mandatory requirement that many engineers do not hold.
Carbon monoxide safety. Warranty protection. Lower bills on larger heating systems. Early fault detection. For Formby's bigger properties, an unserviced system costs more to run and more to repair.
A thorough HHIC inspection covering the boiler and, where applicable, the system boiler additional checks and unvented cylinder annual inspection.
Combustion gases tested to confirm correct and safe burning. Abnormal readings indicate incomplete combustion and potential CO risk.
Gas supply pressure and flow rate confirmed correct for the boiler's operating specification.
Burner removed and inspected for debris and damage. Heat exchanger checked for corrosion and cracking.
Full flue route inspected. For Formby coastal properties, external flue terminal checked for salt corrosion and blockage.
For system boilers. Zone valve operation, pump condition and flow rate, motorised valve timing and seating. These are the components specific to system boiler configurations common in Formby.
Pressure relief valve, overheat thermostat and gas valve all tested for correct operation under fault conditions.
Inhibitor concentration tested. Topped up to the correct level across the full heating system. Particularly important in larger Formby multi-zone systems with greater system volume.
For properties with unvented cylinders. Pressure relief valve, expansion vessel, temperature and pressure valve, thermostat and immersion heater all checked. Carried out by our G3 qualified engineers only.
If a magnetic filter is fitted, cleaned as standard. A blocked filter strains the pump and reduces system efficiency.
Full heating and hot water cycle run across all zones. Benchmark updated. Service certificate and cylinder check record emailed same day.
Missing a single annual service can void your manufacturer warranty completely. Here is what each major brand requires.
Annual servicing by a Gas Safe registered engineer and a completed Benchmark certificate required. Missing a service voids the warranty. We update the Benchmark on every Formby service visit.
Annual servicing recorded in the Benchmark commissioning checklist required. Failure to service annually voids the extended warranty. We carry Vaillant specialist diagnostic tools on every van.
Annual servicing by a Gas Safe registered engineer required. Service record retained and Benchmark updated. We carry out full warranty servicing for all Ideal models across Formby.

CALL 07399 676656Do not wait for the annual reminder if your boiler or heating system is showing any of these signs.
In a larger Formby property with a system boiler and multiple zones, banging, kettling or gurgling can originate from the boiler itself or from the wider heating circuit. Our service identifies the source.
In a multi-zone system, partial failures indicate zone valve or motorised valve problems. These components are checked at the annual service. Identifying a sticking valve before it fails completely avoids an emergency call-out.
For unvented cylinder properties, falling hot water pressure indicates a failing pressure reducing valve or a cylinder fault. This requires investigation by a G3 qualified engineer.
If the pressure relief valve on your unvented cylinder is releasing water, the system pressure is exceeding safe limits. This is a fault requiring immediate investigation by a G3 qualified engineer. Do not ignore a discharging PRV.
A healthy gas flame is blue. Yellow or orange indicates incomplete combustion and potential CO risk. Stop using the boiler immediately. Call Cadent Gas on 0800 111 999 if you suspect a gas emergency, then call us.
For a Formby home with a complex heating system running harder over winter, an annual service is particularly important. An unmonitored system with a failing component will typically fail at the worst possible time.

Yes. We service system boilers at the same £120 fixed price as combi boilers. The system boiler service includes zone valve testing, pump condition check, expansion vessel pressure, motorised valve function and all heating circuit controls in addition to the standard boiler checks. We allow more time for system boiler visits and carry zone valve and pump spares on every van.
Yes. All our engineers hold G3 qualification for unvented cylinder work. This is a legal requirement for working on mains pressure hot water systems.
