As the temperatures drop, your boiler becomes one of the most important systems in your home. At myboilerrepair.com, we recommend checking your boiler before winter sets in to prevent costly breakdowns and ensure your home stays warm and safe.
1. Book a Pre-Winter Boiler Service
Before winter hits, schedule a full boiler inspection with a Gas Safe registered engineer. Regular servicing improves efficiency, reduces energy costs, and ensures safety.

2. Check Boiler Pressure
Your boiler should operate between 1 and 2 bars of pressure. If it’s too low, you might not get enough heat.
Tip: Top it up via the filling loop or contact myboilerrepair.com if it keeps dropping.
3. Bleed Your Radiators
If you notice cold spots, trapped air could be blocking heat flow. Bleeding your radiators helps your heating system run more efficiently.
4. Insulate Pipes
Frozen pipes are a common winter issue. Use foam pipe insulation or ask myboilerrepair.com to insulate external pipes — especially the condensate pipe.
5. Test the Thermostat
Check that your thermostat is working properly. You may want to upgrade to a smart thermostat for better temperature control and energy savings.
6. Clear Around the Boiler
Make sure there’s plenty of space around your boiler so it can ventilate properly. Remove any clutter or obstructions.
7. Keep an Eye on Warning Signs
Strange noises, inconsistent heat, or error codes can signal deeper problems. Catching issues early can save you from a complete breakdown during the coldest weeks.
