I haven`t serviced my back boiler for three years, aren`t I a Cad, I don`t have to, most people don`t bother, Mr. Righteous, the law says that you have to pay car tax every year, Guess what...SOME PEOPLE DON`T.
So what you're saying then is that I'm right. Cheers

Oh stop making it sound dangerous . fek open flued appliances every year. YEAH
Why because they take dust fluff etc from the room into the burner and possibilty of flues getting blocked
Room sealed other than water leak rotting through the case or designer fault nothing is going to kill you.
Did not touch my R/S in for 16 years and goD those 2 leaves and 3 spiders could hve killed me
Turn down thousands of pounds of work every year. balanced flue working ok ... YEAH . ok leave till it goes wrong

Did I say they shouldn't be serviced annually? No I didn't. What I was pointing out that the REGULATIONS (i.e. the law) don't specify if and when you do.
Not even if your a landlord. A Gas safety check is all thats required. Servicing is not included in this. It all depends what you call servicing? Many defects would be picked up by the landlords check (flue/vent etc) but other checks wouldn't be done on any gas appliances.
Not strictly correct. Reg 36 requires that landlords ensure that gas appliances are maintained in a safe condition, annual safety checks are carried out and records kept and issued to tenants. In my book "maintained in a safe condition" = service.
If anything went t*ts up I'm sure the courts would ask for copies of maintenance/service records as well as the CP12.
A high percentage of the population who think their appliances are being "serviced" annually are in fact only having a cursory safety check done by BG.
I have never had any feedback on BG and gas fires. Do BG do at least a spillage test on a gasfire? Or do they remove it every time to check for dead birds behind?

BG are the same as everyone else should be in servicing fires , completly removed and catchment cleaned ,chimney checked for obstructions /dampers etc, bombed and spillage done.
But with some of the replies that have been on here in the past it anmazing how many people don`t know how to do a basic smoke bomb test or a spillage test.
As for cooker servicing we used to have quite a few on contract . used to tell customers to cancel it and dont waste there money
