Boiler & Furnace Maintenace

Routine maintenance helps ensure boilers and furnaces operate efficiently and reliably during the coldest months of the year. Regular service can also help extend system lifespan and reduce the risk of unexpected breakdowns.

A typical heating maintenance visit includes:

  • System inspection and safety checks
  • Burner and combustion testing
  • Circulator or blower inspection
  • Pressure and temperature checks
  • Airflow and filter evaluation
  • Cleaning of key components
  • Overall system performance testing

Annual maintenance helps keep heating systems running safely while maintaining efficiency.

High Efficiency Flush & Descale

Regular flush and descaling helps boilers and tankless water heaters run efficiently by removing mineral buildup from the heat exchanger. This buildup can reduce performance, restrict water flow, and shorten the life of the system if not maintained.

A typical flush and descale service includes:

  • Shut down and isolate unit
  •  Connect hoses and drain system
  • Circulate descaling solution
  • Flush with fresh water
  • Clean filters and condensate components
  • Reassemble and restore power
  • Test operation and combustion
  •  Log maintenance with manufacturer

Routine descaling helps maintain efficiency, protect internal components, and keep the system operating reliably.
