Andrews Commercial Water Heater Repair in Blackpool

Ascent Commercial Gas Engineers attended a school in Blackpool following a breakdown of an Andrews commercial water heater.

Reliable hot water is essential within educational premises. A water-heater breakdown can affect kitchens, washrooms, cleaning facilities and the general operation of the school, so the fault required prompt investigation.

Fault Diagnosis

Our engineer carried out diagnostic checks on the Andrews water heater and inspected its burner and ignition components.

A significant build up was found on the appliance probes. Their condition was consistent with the water heater not receiving the appropriate level of routine servicing and maintenance.

The build up prevented the probes from operating reliably, and replacement was required to restore correct operation.

Recommended Repair

Following the inspection, we recommended:

  • Replacement of the affected probes
  • Cleaning and inspection of the relevant burner components
  • Testing of the appliance’s ignition sequence
  • Inspection of the flame-detection system
  • Combustion and gas-safety checks
  • Full operational testing after completing the repair

Maintaining Commercial Water Heaters

Commercial water heaters should be serviced at the intervals specified by the manufacturer. Proper servicing helps identify contamination, component deterioration and combustion problems before they result in a complete breakdown.

A commercial water-heater service may include:

  • Inspection and cleaning of ignition and flame-sensing probes
  • Burner inspection and cleaning
  • Flue and ventilation checks
  • Gas-pressure and combustion testing
  • Inspection of safety devices and controls
  • Checking for water or gas leaks
  • Testing the complete operating sequence
  • Recording any defects and recommended remedial work

For schools and other heavily used commercial premises, planned maintenance can reduce unexpected breakdowns and help ensure a dependable supply of hot water throughout the year.
