Service

A service of your machine will ensure that it maintains its fuel efficiency and continues to deliver the high standard of results that you have come to expect from your machine. Like your car, you need to have your machine serviced regularly to ensure it meets all current regulations and directives.  At Addfield we employ fully skilled engineers that can support you with your service whilst carrying out preventative maintenance checks. Once completed all serviced machines will gain an annual service certificate to satisfy audit controllers and environmental health. Engineers carry the majority of spares with them and can complete most repairs during the visit for a small fee. You will only be required to pay for any replacement parts that are not included in the service as part of this process saving you additional call out fees. Any additional charges will be agreed with you before the work is carried out.

  • What is included in an incinerator service?

    An incinerator service ensures that your machine is in full working order checking all elements of your machine including burners, fans, electrics, doors, refractory and overall condition.

    The service includes:

    • Full visual check-up
    • Operational check-up and tune-up
    • Consumable check and replacement where required.
    • Burner Service and Test
    • Burner settings and pressure check
    • Replacement and installation of – Blast Tubes, Diffusers
    • Control Panel test – Optimal setting check
    • Visual Inputs check
    • Electrode visual inspection and clean.
    • Emissions check to ensure machine is operating to DEFRA standards
    • Temperature check Main chamber
    • Temperature Check Secondary Chamber – Check it reaches optimal temperature before firing.
    • Test firing of burners and incineration process.
  • Will you repair any faults as part of the service?

    Engineers carry the majority of spares with them and can complete most repairs during the visit for a small fee. You will only be required to pay for any replacement parts that are not included in the service as part of this process saving you additional call out fees. Any additional charges will be agreed with you before the work is carried out.

  • What is a Repair & Service call?

    Although our machinery is built very solidly to last for many years of continuous use there are elements which will need replacing over time from regular use.  These are generally replaced as part of the standard service and include items such as ‘Blast Tubes’ and ‘Diffusers’.  If you have a repair needed near the time of your planned service you can bring this forward and in many instances the repair and replacement parts are covered in your general annual check.

    In other circumstances arranging a repair/service on the same day is cost effective as it removes additional call out charges.  If you have a fault with your machine ask us if this can be covered in a standard repair/service callout for optimum benefits.
