In the fluid environment that we ply our craft, the demands are ever changing. Few days truly hit the mark to be deemed "perfect" although it can be argued that any day spent by water is perfect enough. When we fish, the demands we place on little more than a couple of ounces of carbon fibre are considerable, we expect featherlight touch and feel in close, backbone enough to drive a long, fast and accurate loop but with the durability to fight and land that fish of the day, season or even a lifetime.

Prevent potential boiler and plumbing problems this winter by following these 3 simple steps

You may be keen to hang on to summer but as the weather becomes more autumnal, just cast your mind back to the wildly varying temperatures we've seen over the last few years and the issues that they caused. Following a few simple steps now, before you’re ready to turn the heating back on, will help you prevent the common problems that people can experience in the transition into autumn.

One of the most common times to experience issues with your boiler is when you turn the heating back on in the autumn after being off over the spring and summer. Be proactive now and minimise the chances of things breaking down when you really need them.

Here’s what you can do:

1. Turn your heating on now (for a bit anyway)

In summer that sounds counter intuitive but it does benefit your boiler to turn the heating on for 10-15 minutes every month or so throughout the spring and summer as it keeps all your boiler parts working and highlights any potential issues at a time when it’s most convenient to get them resolved.

2. Check/bleed your radiators

Excess air trapped in radiators will compromise their performance over the winter but still cost the same in terms of energy consumption. It’s worth bleeding them periodically anyway but you can check to see whether yours are affected by putting the heating on and checking to see that they heat evenly. Put them on full and then turn down to the right temperature for autumn once you’ve checked them. If they only heat at the bottom and not the top then they need bleeding.

3. Have your boiler serviced

Having your boiler serviced before you’re due to turn the heating back on is a great idea. It means that all your serviceable parts and settings are checked and action can be taken against any areas of concern like sludge build up.
