Vericon Systems has launched a new ‘summer health check’ initiative to prevent the breakdown of boilers in the winter.
The initiative is targeted at both existing Vericon customers, and/or service maintenance providers to housing associations and other social housing organisations.
Vericon Systems said its IoT monitoring solution enables real-time information about a boiler’s ‘health’ to be measured and reported, and allow remedial action to be taken prior to the onset of winter.
The company added that its technology can detect to what extent a boiler is likely to fail through leaks, ignition failures and other faults that occur following the additional strain created when the ‘big switch on’ happens in the autumn, and temperature fluctuations cause components to contract and expand.
Bernard Cook, managing director and founder of Vericon Systems, said: “By installing one of our monitoring solutions now, or taking advantage of one already installed, we can help proactively manage your boilers, reducing the likelihood of the equipment failing when you need it most, and the additional cost that incurs.
“By proactively monitoring your systems, you can avoid the pitfalls of an engineer not being available when you need one, or having to rely on expensive sub-contractors. Most important of all, you can ensure your residents are not left battling the cold unnecessarily.”
