Boiler Warranties: What You Need to Know
A new boiler is a significant investment, so it’s no surprise that homeowners want peace of mind when it comes to reliability. That’s where boiler warranties come in. But many people don’t realise what’s actually covered—or how easy it is to void the warranty without meaning to.
At MJ Services Lincs, we’re here to help you make the most of your boiler’s warranty and keep your heating system running smoothly for years to come.
What Is a Boiler Warranty?
A boiler warranty is the manufacturer’s promise to repair or replace faulty parts (or the entire boiler) within a certain time frame after installation—typically ranging from 2 to 12 years, depending on the brand and model.
Each warranty varies, but most cover:
-
Faulty components
-
Manufacturing defects
-
Parts (in many cases)
However, warranties are only valid under certain conditions.
How to Keep Your Warranty Valid
To ensure your warranty remains active, you usually need to meet the following requirements:
Annual Servicing
This is the most important condition. Manufacturers typically require your boiler to be serviced once a year by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Missing even one annual service can void your warranty—leaving you with costly repairs down the line.
At MJ Services Lincs, we provide full documentation and reminders so you stay compliant and worry-free.
Professional Installation
Boilers must be installed by a qualified, Gas Safe registered engineer. An unregistered installation not only voids your warranty, but can also be dangerous and illegal.
Registering the Warranty
After installation, the warranty must usually be registered with the manufacturer within a specific time frame—often within 30 days.
What’s Not Covered?
Even with a valid warranty, some things typically aren’t covered, such as:
-
Damage from limescale or sludge buildup
-
System blockages
-
Poor maintenance or DIY repairs
-
Issues caused by incorrect installation
This is why regular servicing and system checks are so important.
Why Regular Servicing Matters
Beyond protecting your warranty, regular boiler servicing helps:
-
Detect problems early
-
Improve efficiency and performance
-
Reduce energy bills
-
Keep your home safe
Think of it like an MOT for your boiler—it keeps things running reliably and prevents costly surprises.
