What a full Alpha service entails

A comprehensive service on an Alpha boiler goes beyond a quick check. We strip, clean, and inspect the main components. This includes checking the combustion chamber, heat exchanger, burner, and electrodes. Crucially, we test the gas pressure, flue gas analysis, and expansion vessel. We also inspect for common Alpha issues like diverter valve wear and flow-sensor performance. Any issues identified, such as the early signs of pressure loss, will be highlighted and discussed with you.

Manufacturer warranty conditions

Alpha's warranty on models like the E-Tec is competitive, but it's conditional. Key requirements typically include annual servicing by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and initial registration with Alpha. Without this, even a new boiler could lose its cover. We document all servicing thoroughly, providing you with the necessary paperwork. This is vital should you ever need to make a warranty claim, proving adherence to their terms. It’s not just about the repair; it’s about the paper trail.

Ensuring your boiler's longevity and cover

Proactive maintenance is the best way to extend your Alpha boiler's life and ensure warranty compliance. Beyond the annual service, keep an eye on your system pressure and address any drops promptly. Small issues like slow pressure loss can indicate a need for attention. For Alpha models, we carry common parts like diverter valves, sensors, and PRVs, allowing for efficient resolution of known issues. This approach minimises downtime and potential larger repair costs.

Atherton FAQs — alpha — servicing and warranty conditions

Why is annual servicing so important for my Alpha boiler's warranty?+

Most boiler manufacturers, including Alpha, stipulate annual servicing by a Gas Safe registered engineer as a condition of their warranty. This ensures the appliance is maintained correctly and helps identify potential issues before they become major faults. Without this annual check and the accompanying documentation, your warranty may be invalidated.

What documentation do I need to keep for my Alpha boiler's warranty?+

You should keep your boiler's original installation certificate, the commissioning sheet, and all annual service records. These documents provide a complete history of the boiler's maintenance, proving to Alpha that you have met their warranty conditions. We will provide a service record for each visit.

What if my Alpha boiler wasn't registered when it was installed?+

The warranty position depends on model and registration – check your documentation. While some manufacturers offer a grace period, it's generally best to register your boiler as soon as possible after installation. If it wasn't, contact Alpha directly to see what options, if any, are available to you. Annual servicing remains crucial regardless.

Does Brogas service older Alpha boiler models like the CD combi?+

Yes, Brogas services a full range of Alpha boilers, including older models like the CD combi, as well as the more common E-Tec and InTec ranges. Our Gas Safe registered engineers are familiar with their specific requirements and common fault patterns, ensuring a thorough and appropriate service for your appliance.
