What is boiler maintenance?

Boiler maintenance refers to the regular inspection, cleaning, testing, and servicing of a boiler system to ensure it operates safely and efficiently. This includes checking for leaks, cleaning burners, testing safety controls, and descaling components as needed. Routine maintenance helps prevent breakdowns, extends the lifespan of the equipment, and ensures compliance with safety regulations. Proper maintenance also helps lower energy costs and reduces the risk of costly repairs.
