Maintaining your boiler

Your new boiler represents a long term investment in a reliable, 
high quality product.
In order to realise its maximum working life and to ensure it 
continues to operate at peak efficiency and performance, it is 
essential that servicing and maintenance checks are performed 
at least once a year by an OFTEC engineer or other suitably 
qualified person.
If you would like to know more about servicing options from 
Worcester, Bosch Group, please visit 

worcester-bosch.co.uk

Please tick the appropriate box on your warranty registration 
card for further details of the Worcester, Bosch Group Service 
Contract.
When your boiler requires servicing please contact a 
Worcester, Bosch Group contact centre (see inside front cover 
for details).
In addition to the service contract we are pleased to offer a one-
off annual service or breakdown call out for your boiler.

Maintenance tips

Regularly check the oil level in the tank. Running the tank empty 
or low can lead to damage to the burner.
Do not obstruct the flue outlet or the air inlet.

Use in hard water areas

In exceptionally hard water areas a device to prevent scale 
formation may be fitted. Installation of a scale inhibitor 
assembly should be in accordance with the requirements of the 
local water company. An isolating valve should be fitted to 
allow for servicing.

4.4

Servicing

You must have the boiler regularly serviced by a competent, 
qualified OFTEC registered engineer using approved spares, to 
help maintain the economy, safety and reliability of the boiler.
The boiler should be serviced once each year after installation 
unless the installation conditions and usage demand more 
frequent services.
