If you’ve noticed cold spots on your radiators or they’re not heating up as well as they used to, it might be time to bleed them. Air can become trapped inside your radiators over time, preventing hot water from circulating properly.

Bleeding your radiators is a simple job that most homeowners can do themselves. All you need is a radiator key and a cloth. Turn your heating on, wait for the radiators to warm up, then use the key to open the bleed valve slightly. You’ll hear a hissing sound as the air escapes. Once water starts to drip out, close the valve.

If you’re unsure or your radiators still aren’t heating properly after bleeding, give us a call. Our engineers can diagnose and fix any central heating issues quickly and efficiently.

A gas safety certificate, also known as a CP12, is a legal requirement for all landlords in the UK. It confirms that all gas appliances, fittings and flues in a property have been checked and are safe to use.

As a landlord, you must have a Gas Safe registered engineer carry out a safety check on every gas appliance and flue annually. You must provide a copy of the certificate to existing tenants within 28 days of the check, and to new tenants before they move in.

At Gas Heating Services, we provide comprehensive landlord gas safety checks across the West Midlands. We’ll issue your CP12 certificate on the spot and keep records for your peace of mind.

Boilers don’t last forever, and knowing when to replace yours can save you money in the long run. Here are some common signs that your boiler might be on its way out.

If your boiler is over 15 years old, breaks down frequently, makes strange noises, or your energy bills are creeping up despite no change in usage, these are all indicators that a replacement could be worthwhile.

Modern boilers are significantly more efficient than older models. A new A-rated condensing boiler could save you hundreds of pounds a year on your energy bills. Contact us for a free, no-obligation quote on a new boiler installation.

As the colder months approach, it’s important to make sure your central heating system is ready to keep your home warm and comfortable. A few simple checks can help prevent breakdowns when you need your heating the most.

Start by turning your heating on a few weeks before you expect to need it regularly. This gives you time to identify any issues while the weather is still mild. Check that all radiators are heating evenly, listen for unusual noises, and make sure your thermostat is working correctly.

If you haven’t had your boiler serviced in the last 12 months, now is the perfect time to book one. Our engineers are available throughout the Halesowen and West Midlands area.

Over time, sludge, rust and other debris can build up inside your central heating system, reducing its efficiency and potentially causing damage. A powerflush is a deep-cleaning process that removes these deposits and restores your system to full working order.

Signs that you might need a powerflush include cold spots on radiators, noisy boiler or pump, slow heating response, and discoloured water when you bleed radiators.

Our engineers use professional powerflushing equipment to thoroughly clean your entire central heating system. The process typically takes a few hours and can make a noticeable difference to your heating performance and energy bills.
