Question 2

Why is regular boiler servicing especially important in Minehead?

Accepted Answer

Minehead is a coastal town where salt air and damp conditions can accelerate corrosion in boilers and pipework. Regular annual servicing by On Tap Plumbing and Gas helps catch early signs of corrosion, scale or seal deterioration before they become costly failures, particularly in the older TA24 seafront properties.
