Why is it important to have your boiler serviced regularly?

Regular boiler maintenance is much more than just a legal requirement: it’s essential for ensuring your safety, saving energy, and extending the life of your equipment.

Savings on your bill

A well-maintained boiler operates at peak efficiency and consumes up to 10–15% less energy. An annual inspection helps detect minor issues before they turn into costly breakdowns.

Reduced risk of breakdowns and carbon monoxide poisoning

A poorly maintained boiler can release carbon monoxide, an odorless and dangerous gas. Regular maintenance helps prevent this risk and ensures worry-free heating.

A legal requirement

In Belgium, boiler maintenance is mandatory and must be performed by a certified professional. Failure to comply with this rule can result in fines and a denial of coverage by your home insurance in the event of a claim.

When should maintenance be performed?

• Gas boiler: every 2 years or as specified in the lease agreement
• Oil, wood, or pellet boiler: every year
• Don’t let winter catch you off guard: schedule your maintenance to avoid unpleasant surprises and enjoy efficient, cost-effective heating.
