Gas heating maintenance
Any gas boiler, even the simplest one, works only if all elements are smoothly going. When you set up your unit and check its operation from time to time, your house is warm and safe. However, any unit reduces its capacity with time. Therefore, gas heating system maintenance including a unit capacity and its parts condition checkup, cleaning and re-adjustment is vital.
Meanwhile, be sure to delegate the maintenance of your gas heater to the experts in other case your guarantee for the gas heater might be cancelled as most manufacturers accept the warrantee maintenance only if the installation, regular service or repair are provided by the licensed contractors.
Inappropriate monitoring at the manufacture, poor maintenance of the unit and misuse may result in dysfunction of your gas heater.

- Longer service life. The unit monitored and repaired in time will serve longer.
- Clean air. The filters installed in the gas heater must be changed every 3 months. In other case, dust and residues appear in the room. Thus, the timely change of filters will allow you to enjoy fresh air.
