Keep reading to learn the signs you need to watch for indicating problems at your business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2>Plan Service for During Slow Hours<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ideally, you should schedule a boiler replacement when your business is closed. But if that\u2019s not possible, choose a day when you expect your location to be the least busy. This helps everyone\u2014our team, your employees, and your customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Communicate About the Installation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a good idea to let your team and customers know ahead of time about the installation since it will cause a disruption in service. Explain the plan to your team and then post information for customers ahead of time so that they won\u2019t be surprised when the installation happens.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s good to offer a timeline that overestimates how long the installation will take. This way, if you get done early\u2014great. If not, and it takes a little longer than expected, you\u2019ve already built in some extra time to the installation estimate.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Choose a Boiler Wisely<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not all boilers are created equal. You want to choose a model that best meets the needs of your business space and our climate. This means balancing size and power to optimize heating for your living space. You may even want to invest in a high efficiency boiler that has elevated operation. Doing so can boost heating ability while also saving you money on monthly gas or electricity costs.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Plan for Temporary Heating Needs&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If needed, you can bring in some portable heaters for the day of installation to ensure that your space is still as comfortable as possible. This may mean being strategic and closing off certain areas of your business so you only have to maintain heat in a single space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Be Ready for Routine Maintenance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a new boiler in place may make you feel like regular maintenance isn\u2019t quite as important. Shouldn\u2019t your boiler operate at a high level for a while without extra care steps since it is brand new? While it is true that your boiler may be able to operate just fine without care steps, that doesn\u2019t mean you should skip them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Things like cleaning filters, monitoring boiler pressure, and bleeding the radiator are important at all stages. In fact, starting off with an excellent care routine and keeping up with it offers your boiler the best chance at a long and efficient lifespan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><a href=\"\/contact-us\/send-a-message\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.althoffindcommercial.com\/blog\/commercial-services\/are-you-giving-your-commercial-heater-the-tlc-it-deserves\/\">Contact Althoff Industries, Inc.
