When is a Sweep Enough?
Do I need my Stove Servicing?

👉 Choose a Stove Service if:
It’s not burning properly
Glass goes black
You’ve never had it serviced
Ideally, every stove should be professionally serviced each year in accordance with the manufacturer’s guidelines.
In the early years, where usage is light, an annual chimney sweep may be sufficient to keep things in safe working order. However, as the appliance ages and sees more regular use, wear and tear becomes more significant. At this stage, a full professional service is the more appropriate option to ensure the stove continues to operate safely, efficiently, and as intended.
A service goes far beyond a sweep. It includes checking, adjusting, and replacing key components where needed. Rope seals, in particular, are critical. If they begin to fail, the stove can draw too much air, leading to poor control, reduced efficiency, and potential safety concerns.
Keeping on top of servicing not only protects your appliance but also helps extend its lifespan and maintain performance year after year.
