Can any electrician install an EV charger, or do they need special approval?
Not all electricians can install EV chargers. They need to be certified by a recognized body such as the National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting (NICEIC) or have specific qualifications like the City & Guilds 2919. It’s crucial to choose an installer who has the necessary credentials and experience with EV charging systems.
How long should a boiler service take?
A boiler service typically takes around an hour to complete, although this may vary depending on the type of boiler and the complexity of the service.
How do I get a copy of my Gas Safety Certificate?
To obtain a copy of your Gas Safety Certificate, please contact us at CRS Matrix. Our team will be happy to assist you in retrieving a digital or physical copy of your certificate. Please provide us with your name and contact information, as well as the address where the gas appliance is installed. We may also need to verify your identity to ensure that we are releasing the certificate to the correct person. Once we have this information, we will work quickly to get you the documentation you need. Please note that there may be a small fee associated with providing a physical copy of your certificate.
What is “vampire energy” and how can I save money by reducing it?
“Vampire energy” refers to the energy that electronic devices consume even when they are not being actively used. You can save money by unplugging devices when they are not in use, as this prevents them from using electricity unnecessarily and adding to your energy bill. More information can be found here: https://moralfibres.co.uk/slay-vampire-energy/
How can I prevent my gas boiler from needing repairs?
Regular maintenance and servicing can help prevent the need for major repairs. It’s also important to have your boiler inspected annually by a professional to catch any potential issues before they become major problems.
Can I fix my boiler myself?
It’s not recommended to attempt to fix your boiler yourself. Boilers are complex systems, and attempting to fix them without the proper training can be dangerous. Always call a qualified professional if you’re experiencing issues with your boiler.
Do I need a Fire Safety Certificate for my rental property?
There is no specific “Fire Safety Certificate” for dwellings, but landlords must ensure that all properties meet required fire safety standards. This includes installing smoke alarms on every floor and carbon monoxide alarms in rooms with a usable fireplace or wood burner.
How often do I need to renew the EPC, and what does it involve?
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rates your property’s energy efficiency and is required whenever a property is built, sold, or rented. An EPC is valid for ten years, but it might need renewal sooner if you undertake significant energy efficiency improvements.
Do solar panels require planning permission?
In many cases, solar panel installations fall under “permitted development” and do not require planning permission, but this can vary, especially in conservation areas or on listed buildings. Always check with your local planning authority.
What are some sustainable transportation options that can help me save money and reduce my carbon footprint?
Walking, biking, and using public transportation are all sustainable transportation options that can help you save money on fuel and car maintenance, as well as reduce your impact on the environment. Walking or biking to work is also a great way to get some exercise and fresh air while reducing transportation costs.
How long does a gas boiler repair take?
The length of time it takes to repair a gas boiler can vary depending on the severity of the issue. However, most repairs can be completed within a few hours to a day.
Can I switch energy suppliers if I have a smart meter?
Yes, you can switch energy suppliers even if you have a smart meter. Your new supplier should be able to use the same smart meter to measure your energy usage.
Why is my boiler making strange noises?
Strange noises can be a sign of several issues, such as trapped air, a faulty pump, or a faulty valve. It’s best to call a professional to diagnose the issue.
Can I check if my property has a gas safety certificate?
If you are unsure whether your property has a current gas safety certificate, you can contact us at CRS Matrix and we can help you verify this information. We will need to know the address of the property and the date of the last inspection. If there is no existing certificate or the current certificate has expired, we can arrange for a gas safety inspection to be carried out at your property. This will help ensure that your property is safe and compliant with gas safety regulations.
What happens if you don’t service a boiler?
If you don’t service your boiler, it may become less efficient. A lack of maintenance can also increase the likelihood of breakdowns and expensive repairs. Boiler Guarantees can become void. It may also become unsafe, as faults can go undetected and lead to gas leaks or carbon monoxide poisoning.
What is the cost of installing an EV charger at home in the UK?
Installation costs for a home EV charger in the UK can range from £300 to £1,200. The exact cost depends on the type of charger and installation complexity. This price does not include any necessary electrical upgrades.
What happens if I don’t get a gas safety certificate?
There might be severe repercussions. You (and your agent, if you have one) might be charged under the Gas Safety Regulations and receive a fine of up to £6,000 or spend up to six months in jail.
Can a gas boiler be repaired, or does it need to be replaced?
In most cases, gas boilers can be repaired rather than replaced. However, if the damage is extensive, it may be more cost-effective to replace the boiler altogether. Getting a full assessment with CRS Matrix will give you peace of mind and a plan for future upgrades or replacements. But remember, we are here to provide you the most efficient and affordable course of action.
What if my gas safety certificate has expired?
If your gas safety certificate has expired, you will need to schedule a gas safety inspection as soon as possible. Our team at CRS Matrix can assist you with this. We will send a Gas Servicing Engineer to your property to carry out a full inspection and provide you with a new certificate once your gas appliances have been deemed safe. It is important to note that continuing to use gas appliances without a valid gas safety certificate can be dangerous and potentially illegal. Contact us today to schedule an inspection.
