Baxi Top Tips: How long does a boiler service take and how much does it cost?
Getting your boiler serviced regularly is important for keeping it working in top condition and ensuring that you don’t invalidate your warranty.
Our Gas Safe registered engineer and Baxi Trainer, Rachel answers a couple of the main questions you might have when you get a boiler service: how long will it take and how much will it cost?

How long does a boiler service take?
On average, a boiler service could take between 40 and 60 minutes. That does depend on how old your boiler is and when you last had it serviced.
If there’s a lot of work that needs to be done, then it could potentially take your engineer a little bit longer.
How much does a boiler service typically cost?
A boiler service varies according to age, product type, and whether the boiler needs parts. We always recommend using Baxi’s genuine parts to ensure your boiler is fitted with components that have been specifically designed and tested to meet stringent standards.

Why is it important to have your boiler serviced?
A regular boiler service is important for keeping you and your family safe. Certain appliances could produce harmful carbon monoxide (CO) if they are not working properly, which is why our Gas Safe engineers always check for CO as part of every service.
Having your boiler serviced is similar to an MOT for a car – all the main components are checked for signs of wear and tear, and if necessary, replaced. This reduces the risk of it breaking down when you need it the most, especially in the colder months when there is a greater need for it to be running smoothly.
Not having your boiler serviced annually may lead to invalidated warranties. At Baxi, all our warranties have a requirement that the boiler has a yearly service. This prevents the likelihood of expensive repairs being needed later on.
A service also helps your boiler run efficiently, using less fuel to do so and ultimately helping to bring down energy bills in the long run.
