What is included?

EasyFlow specialise in the repair and maintenance of unvented water heaters and thermal store water heaters. The plan covers everything from annual maintenance and fault finding to replacing safety valves and immersion heaters. The cost per year is typically less than a single standard repair job and yet covers the annual service of unvented water heaters and multiple call-out and repairs.

Mainitenance Plan Charges: Manchester, Chester, Liverpool

£19.95 per month including VAT the minimum term is 12 months

Prices can vary by make and model of heater and by location.

2. The minimum term for a Maintenance Plan is 12 months. If an agreement is cancelled prior to the initial 12-month term being completed the outstanding balance will become due.
3. Includes a free annual service for unvented water heaters worth £90. This service is a vital consideration and is recommended by manufacturers. We will provide certification of service to deliver to your insurer as well.

We cannot provide repairs or service for water heaters that are dangerous to service or repair, nor can we service water heaters if spare parts are no longer available for them.
