When it comes to commercial properties, every decision must be made with the financial implications in mind. That’s why so many business owners and site managers cut corners when it comes to their commercial boiler service – to save money.
But could that choice actually be counter-productive? In this post, we’ll discuss whether a commercial boiler service could save you money in the long run.
The benefits of commercial boiler servicing
While it may seem like an unnecessary expenditure, a professional service for your commercial boiler comes with a number of benefits…
Eliminates downtime
First and foremost, it ensures everything is running smoothly. That means less chance of your boiler breaking down and the downtime that comes with it. In many cases, commercial buildings will be unusable without a working boiler – or, at the very least, unpleasant. By servicing your commercial boiler regularly, you won’t need to send staff home or impact their productivity.
Minimises ad hoc repairs
Keeping your boiler at its best also eliminates the cost of ad-hoc repairs. Small issues can be identified and nipped in the bud with simple, affordable repairs. On the flipside, without a service, those issues could be left to fester and develop into something more costly – or even an issue that causes your boiler to break down completely.
Keeps warranty intact
Whether it’s 5 years, 10 years or even longer, most new boilers come with a warranty. It covers you for any faults or repairs, as long as you have maintained your boiler to the manufacturer’s standards. That typically includes an annual commercial boiler service. By booking this each year, you can keep your warranty valid and avoid any unexpected costs.
Improves energy efficiency
A commercial boiler service will also make sure your boiler is working at its best. That means using the least amount of energy to provide the heat and hot water you need. In other words, maximum energy efficiency. The result is lower bills over time, as well as a lower environmental footprint for your business.
Maximises lifespan
Finally, servicing your commercial boiler will maximise its lifespan. With your boiler working efficiently for a few extra years, you won’t have to fork out for a replacement as soon – or as often – in the long run.
Weighing things up
There’s no doubt about it. Sidestepping your commercial boiler service will save you money up front. This works in the same way as pocketing a few extra quid by not getting your car checked regularly.
However, given everything we’ve discussed above, it’s fair to say you’re getting your money’s worth with a commercial boiler service. Better energy efficiency, fewer repairs and replacements, and keeping your warranty valid – it will all add up to cover the cost of your commercial boiler service, and probably more.
