- Page 11 Have your appliance serviced by a qualified heating engineer once per year. Servicing your stove should not be seen as a chore but rather the means to getting the most efficient use and increasing the life of the stove. A badly maintained stove will run inefficiently, so you will burn more fuel, and if left unmaintained for a period could seriously damage the component parts within the stove which will then need replacing.
