5 Ways to Keep Your Commercial Boiler in Top Condition

The boiler is one of the most hardworking pieces of equipment in a commercial premises. It keeps your building warm, provides hot water, and undergoes significant stress over its lifetime. No matter the size of your premises in Bromsgrove, there are some maintenance tips you should use to keep your commercial boiler in good working condition.

1. Regular Cleaning

Hard water deposits, soot, scale, and contaminants will build up inside the boiler tubes over time. This debris forms a thick coating that reduces the efficiency of a commercial boiler by up to 10%.

For this reason, we recommend you get your boiler flushed out once a year. This removes the build-up and ensures the pipes are clear and efficient. You can do this yourself with the right equipment, but it’s much easier and less time-consuming to call your local commercial heating engineers to do the job for you.

2. Get Insulation

Uninsulated pipes and valves reduce the efficiency of a commercial boiler and mean higher energy bills. Insulation also helps prevent injury and equipment damage if you have a facility that operates with high temperatures.

If you do decide to insulate the pipes, you’ll need to schedule regular inspections to ensure no condensation is building up and affecting the operation of your commercial heating system.

3. Schedule Preventive Maintenance

Prevention is always better (and cheaper) than a cure. Scheduling regular commercial boiler maintenance in Bromsgrove will ensure your system is working efficiently and safely.

 A maintenance routine will extend the lifespan of your boiler and help prevent costly system failures. We’ll check the entire system, create a maintenance log, and keep track of this essential job for you.

5. Check The Water Quality

The quality of the water in your boiler is a good indicator of the overall health of your commercial heating system. If you notice the water is murky, full of debris, or oil residue, we’ll need to carry out an inspection to see what the problem is.

If you notice wet steam or short cycling, this is usually caused by dirty water, but a quick daily inspection by you or your site manager will help ensure this doesn’t become an issue.
