A well-functioning boiler is the heart of any home’s heating system. Neglecting it can lead to inefficiency, breakdowns, or even safety risks. At Miller HPC Ltd, we recommend annual checkups to keep your boiler running smoothly.

Here are 5 key signs that your boiler needs servicing:

1. Unusual Noises
   If your boiler is making banging, whistling, or gurgling sounds, it may signal trapped air, limescale buildup, or a failing pump.
2. Uneven Heating or Cold Radiators
   Rooms that heat unevenly, or radiators that remain cold at the top, can mean circulation problems or blocked pipes.
3. Frequent Pressure Drops or Leaks
   If your boiler loses pressure often, or if there’s dampness/water around it, there may be a leak that needs professional attention.
4. Discoloured or Flickering Flame
   A normal boiler flame burns blue. If it’s yellow or flickering, that could indicate incomplete combustion — a potential carbon monoxide risk.
5. Rising Energy Bills
   When your boiler hasn’t changed but your bills go up, that could mean it’s running inefficiently. Regular servicing can restore efficiency and save you money.
