How can I save money on cleaning products while also being eco-friendly?
Making your own cleaning products using natural ingredients like vinegar, baking soda, and lemon juice is a great way to be more environmentally-friendly and economical. These ingredients are often cheaper than store-bought cleaning products and can be used for a variety of cleaning tasks around the home.
Can I use any charger with my electric vehicle in the UK?
Most EVs are compatible with public chargers found across the UK, though Tesla cars may need an adapter for non-Tesla chargers. It’s always best to check compatibility with your vehicle manufacturer.
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.
Is a boiler service the same as a gas safety check?
No, a boiler service is not the same as a gas safety check. While both are important, a gas safety check is a basic check of the gas appliances in your home to ensure they are safe to use. A boiler service, on the other hand, involves checking the individual boiler parts to make sure they are clean and working efficiently. Think of a boiler service and a safety check as the equivalent of a service and MOT on your vehicle.
Are there any additional safety checks recommended for landlords?
While not mandatory, it’s advisable for landlords to perform regular checks on the property’s structure, plumbing, heating, and pests. Regular maintenance can prevent larger issues and helps ensure tenant safety and satisfaction.
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.
What time of year should I service my boiler?
It is recommended to have your boiler serviced in the summer or early autumn months, before your energy requirements start increasing for winter. This reduces the chance of a boiler breakdown when your home needs heating the most.
Is there more information about about Boiler Checks and Boiler Servicing in Leicester?
Yes. The local Online News paper, The Leicester Mercury wrote an article about it.
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.
What certificates do I need as a landlord in the UK?
As a landlord in the UK, you are required to obtain several key certificates to ensure the safety and compliance of your rental properties. These include the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), Gas Safety Certificate (CP12), Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) where applicable, and a Legionella Risk Assessment if needed. These certificates help ensure that your property meets health and safety standards.
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.
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.
What are the environmental benefits of electric vehicles and EV chargers?
EVs significantly reduce emissions compared to conventional vehicles, especially when charged from renewable energy sources. The UK’s growing renewable energy capacity makes EVs increasingly sustainable.
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.
Do tenants need a copy of gas safety certificate every year?
Yes! By law landlords must carry out an annual gas safety check and provide tenants with a copy of the record of that check.
What maintenance is required for EV chargers?
EV chargers generally require little maintenance, mostly involving regular inspections to ensure cleanliness and cable integrity. Always refer to the manufacturer’s maintenance guidelines.
What is an EICR, and when do I need one?
The Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) assesses all electrical installations in your property to ensure they are safe and up to standard. Landlords must have a valid EICR for their properties, which must be renewed every five years.
What are the common signs of a gas leak?
The common signs of a gas leak include the smell of gas, hissing or whistling sounds near gas appliances, a yellow or orange flame instead of blue, and physical symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, and nausea. If you smell gas coming from your boiler, you should immediately turn off the gas supply and contact a professional for repairs. Do not attempt to fix the issue yourself. Call the Cadent hotline immediately.
What does a full boiler service include?
A full boiler service typically includes a thorough inspection of the boiler and its components, cleaning of the boiler, testing of safety devices, and a check of the gas pressure and flue.
