As well as its design and build service - and as a safeguard to end-users - Fulton is now overseeing the installation and commissioning of its boilers and systems and providing regular servicing and maintenance contracts and training.
The after-sales support is supervised by Fulton's service manager Steve Robinson and backed by a team of six service technicians and a number of nominated service contractors, offering national and international service support.
"We are already providing after-sales service and support in the UK, Europe, Middle East, Kazakhstan, Russia, and the Caribbean." explains Robinson.
"In fact, two oil-fired RBC boilers have recently been installed and commissioned as part of a turnkey project for an animal feed mill in Saudi Arabia." For working on gas boilers, Corgi and ACOPS approval is essential and an annual service and inspection mandatory; if boiler duty is heavy, an interim six-month service is also recommended.
Regular servicing and maintenance by a recognised and qualified service organisation or engineer is also essential for steam boilers, to maintain optimum operating efficiency, safety and long-term reliability.
To ensure that Fulton boilers are correctly maintained and serviced, especially for companies operating a number of boilers, Fulton offers an enhanced training scheme for service engineers and boiler operatives.
Explains Robinson: "When you buy a Fulton fuel-fired boiler, commissioning and its first six months servicing are included, as well as a provision for training site operatives on routine operating and maintenance procedures." Comprehensive hands-on training can be provided on-site or at Fulton's headquarters in Bristol.
It covers all aspects of service including product information, day-to-day operation, servicing and maintenance and is structured to the needs of individual's or companies.
For example, if the boiler is to be serviced by a dedicated service company, Fulton can train its engineers, however if it is owner maintained, the training can focus on the particular boiler and application.
With properly managed maintenance, a steam boiler will give excellent and efficient service for many years, infact Fulton still service boilers that are over 30 years old!.
