QR CODE ON YOUR BOILER: MAKING IT EASY TO REPORT ISSUES

At Fix First Heating Ltd, our goal is always to make your life easier, especially when it comes to keeping your boiler safe and reliable. That’s why we put QR codes on every boiler we visit. It sounds technical, but for you, the customer, it means faster reporting, easier access to history, and a smoother way to book engineer visits.

How it Helps

Report an Issue Instantly
Imagine you notice a strange noise or a fault with your boiler. With the QR code label stuck on the boiler, you don’t need to remember a reference number or dig through old paperwork. Simply open your phone’s camera, scan the code, and you’ll be taken to a customer portal webpage that’s specific to your boiler. From there, you can report an issue directly to our system. This means you don’t have to call or send an email – just send a message via the QR code and we’ll pick up the message.

Making repairs easier
Because your boiler is tagged in our system, we already know exactly the model and serial number when you make a request. This makes diagnosing issues and identifying parts quick and easy. That means quicker repair times, less down time and no follow-up questions just to clarify model or past work.

What That Means for You

• Convenience: No need to call, email or text. Just scan and book in seconds from your smartphone.
• Speed: Requests get routed straight into our system, reducing delays and making it easier to prioritise your job.
• Clarity: We keep a complete record of all the work carried out on your boiler from the first time we visited. Previous faults, parts replacements and service due dates are all listed.
• Safety & Reliability: Your boiler’s entire service history is recorded, helping us catch issues early and maintain optimal performance.

How Fix First Engineering Makes It Work

We can see your boiler’s history at a glance
When we scan your boiler’s QR code, we record all it’s relevant information. This includes the make and model, serial number, installation date and location. Every engineer that visits adds notes, photos, and inspection details to the same digital record.  Any engineer that visits your property can get a full history of the boiler and heating system giving them clarity about what’s been done and when.

When our engineer visits, they’ll scan that same QR code and open the boiler’s digital record via the ServiceM8 app. From there they run through a customised service checklist, complete inspection forms, take photos and log everything in real time. That means when they leave, the digital record is already up to date. You’ll then receive a clean, professional PDF service report after the job is done.
​
If any follow-up work is needed, we can flag that immediately on our system, trigger a reminder, or even convert it into a new job so you don’t have to lift a finger.

Why We Do This
