Winter is coming: Is your heating ready?
Tuesday 6 October 2026
As temperatures begin to drop, now is the perfect time to check your heating and hot water are working properly.
Every year, we see a significant increase in boiler repairs when the cold weather arrives. By turning your heating on now and checking everything is working as it should, you can help us identify and resolve any issues before the winter rush.
What to do:
✅ Turn your heating on for 10-15 minutes
✅ Check all radiators are warming up
✅ Make sure you have both heating and hot water
✅ Listen out for unusual noises from your boiler
✅ Report any problems as soon as possible
Why check now?
When temperatures drop, demand for repairs rises sharply and appointment availability becomes much more limited. Reporting any issues early gives us the best chance of resolving them before the coldest weather arrives.
Get it sorted before you really need your heating – test it today and stay warm this winter.
