At AlquiConfort, we know that renting an efficient boiler is just the first step to enjoying a warm, safe, and worry-free home. But did you know that proper maintenance also impacts performance and energy savings?
In this article, we share a practical guide with tips for keeping your rental boiler in good condition. Because with responsible use and some basic care, you can extend its lifespan and ensure maximum comfort at home.
1. Take advantage of your included maintenance service
When you sign up for a boiler rental with AlquiConfort, preventive maintenance is included in your fee. Our technical team performs regular service checks to ensure your boiler operates correctly and to prevent future breakdowns.
Tip: Don’t ignore maintenance appointments. Allowing access to our technicians ensures everything runs like day one.
2. Bleed the radiators once a year
Over time, radiators can accumulate air that prevents hot water from circulating correctly. This reduces their efficiency and can cause annoying noises.
AlquiConfort Recommendation: Bleed them before the coldest months. If you don’t know how to do it, you can request guidance from our technical team.
3. Check the system pressure
Although the technical inspection is our responsibility, we recommend that you occasionally monitor the heating circuit pressure. A level that is too low or too high can affect system performance.
The ideal range: a pressure between 1 and 1.5 bar (consult your specific model).
4. Keep the radiators and boiler area clean
Accumulated dust can affect thermal efficiency. Furthermore, keeping the area where the boiler is installed free of obstacles promotes ventilation and access for maintenance.
5. Watch out for strange noises or odors
One of the advantages of renting is that you don’t have to worry about costly repairs. If you hear unusual noises or detect abnormal smells (especially gas or burning), call us immediately. Our technical team will come to check your boiler at no additional cost.
6. Control the temperature efficiently
Adjust the heating and domestic hot water temperature responsibly. Using a programmable thermostat or regulating usage schedules avoids overloading the system and reduces energy consumption.
This not only protects your boiler but also lowers your energy bill.
7. Use limescale prevention products if you are in a hard water area
Although technical maintenance includes internal checks, if you live in an area with very hard water, you can help the system by using authorized limescale prevention products. Consult our technicians before doing so.
8. Keep a basic usage log
Although AlquiConfort takes care of the technical history, you can note any incidents, unusual behavior, or the date you requested a service check. This facilitates a faster and more precise response from our team.
9. Rely on a provider with professional technical service
The advantage of boiler rental is that you are always covered. You don’t need to look for a technician on your own or pay for unexpected parts or repairs. With AlquiConfort, you are backed by specialists who respond swiftly.
