Winter boiler checklist for Ayrshire homes

Before the cold sets in, run through this simple checklist to help avoid breakdowns and keep bills down.

2) Bleed radiators

Cold spots can indicate trapped air. Bleeding radiators improves heat output and efficiency.

3) Set timers and thermostats

Program heating to match your routine. Small tweaks can save energy without sacrificing comfort.

4) Book a service

An annual service keeps your boiler efficient and your warranty valid. Were happy to help.
