Planned maintenance includes:
Service and safety check gas boiler, gas fire, heat pump
Eildon Housing Association is legally obliged to carry out safety inspections on gas appliances in our properties.
Every 10 months, we carry out a service in all properties with gas boilers, gas fires, or heat pumps.

Our contractor will contact you directly by your preferred method to arrange access.
We make every effort to contact you. However, if you don’t respond to repeated requests for access, we will be obliged to arrange for forced entry, and charge the cost to you.
