Boiler Servicing in Kirkcaldy
Local to Kirkcaldy, we keep boilers safe and efficient for homes across KY1 and KY2, from Dysart and Sinclairtown to Templehall, Raith and the waterfront. Every visit follows a clear checklist that covers combustion performance, safety devices and the overall health of the heat exchanger.
You get a careful service, not a quick once over. We take live flue gas readings, confirm pressures, check controls and clean where it makes a measurable difference. The goal is steady, reliable heat with sensible running costs.
Annual servicing helps protect any manufacturer warranty, reduces the risk of winter breakdowns and can lower gas use. If your boiler is older, we will give straight advice on parts condition and what will extend its life.

Why regular boiler servicing matters
Lower running costs, fewer headaches, and a safer home. Here is what an annual service does for you.
Protects your warranty
Manufacturers expect a yearly service and a completed Benchmark. We record it properly so you keep cover intact.
Maintains efficiency
Cleaning the burner and heat exchanger and setting combustion correctly helps the boiler use less gas for the same heat.
Prevents breakdowns
Early signs of wear or pressure issues are picked up and fixed before they turn into faults during cold snaps.
Keeps your home safe
Combustion tests and flue checks confirm safe operation. We advise on ventilation and CO alarms where needed.
Extends boiler life
Regular cleaning and correct system pressure reduce strain on expensive parts like pumps and heat exchangers.
Lowers running costs
Small adjustments add up. A well set boiler uses less gas and delivers steadier hot water and heating.
What to expect during your service visit
A clear process from arrival to sign-off so you know exactly what happens and why.

Initial visual inspection
Checks on casing, flue route, pipework and the surrounding area for leaks or obvious faults.
Safety testing
Safety devices tested including pressure relief, overheat protection, and flame supervision.
Combustion analysis
Live flue readings for CO, CO₂ and temperature to confirm safe, efficient burner operation.
Component inspection and cleaning
