It is not unusual for it to accrue wear and tear each season, including the accumulation of dirt and dust. Operating your boiler season after season without scheduling maintenance can reduce the energy efficiency of the system by up to 5% each year. This is one of the reasons why it\u2019s so important to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atlanticrefrigeration.com\/contact\/service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">schedule boiler maintenance<\/a> in Lewes. The cold weather is coming, so don\u2019t hesitate to schedule maintenance with your Atlantic Refrigeration technician today.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Schedule Maintenance?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are several important reasons to schedule maintenance for your boiler:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Better energy efficiency \u2013 your boiler was made to operate at a certain efficiency level. When the system and its components are worn down from seasonal operation, it can be difficult for your system to operate as efficiently as it should. During a maintenance appointment, components are cleaned, adjusted and lubricated, allowing them to operate as they should. This helps your system retain its original energy efficiency.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Prevents repairs \u2013 during a maintenance appointment, your system undergoes a thorough inspection. This inspection allows the technician to look for and detect any existing or developing issues with your boiler. Small issues, like frayed wiring, will be repaired during the maintenance appointment; larger issues will be reported to you so that you can schedule an appointment for repair. Resolving potential and existing problems immediately can help prevent repairs down the road.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Less wear on your system \u2013 a system that operates under stress for a long period of time due to a lack of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atlanticrefrigeration.com\/maintenance-program\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">regular maintenance<\/a> can prematurely age. Properly maintaining your boiler keeps the system and its components in good working order, which helps prevent early aging.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>How Often Is Maintenance Needed?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ideally, maintenance should be scheduled bi-annually: before the heating season in the fall, and after it in the spring. However, if you can\u2019t schedule maintenance bi-annually, it is strongly recommended that you schedule it annually, with the best time being in the fall season.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>If it\u2019s been more than 12 months since your last boiler maintenance in Lewes, call the boiler maintenance professionals at Atlantic Refrigeration today.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your boiler is a complex device that works hard during the winter months to keep you warm and comfortable.
