What is the difference between a boiler service and a gas safety certificate?

A boiler service is a thorough inspection and maintenance check of your boiler to ensure it is running efficiently and safely. This includes checking for wear and tear, cleaning key components, testing safety controls, and ensuring it operates at peak performance. Regular servicing helps prevent breakdowns and extends the life of your boiler.

A gas safety check, on the other hand, is a legal requirement for landlords and involves inspecting all gas appliances in a property. It ensures that gas appliances, flues, and ventilation meet safety regulations and do not pose a risk of leaks or carbon monoxide poisoning.

While a boiler service focuses on maintaining and optimizing your boiler, a gas safety check is about verifying the safety of all gas appliances in a property.
