Could You Conduct a Survey on My Gas Boiler?
Yes, I am qualified to do this and I have lots of hands-on experience with this important part of boiler are. Once the survey is completed, I can advise if your boiler can remain in place or if a new boiler is required. Boilers over a decade old are not as efficient as their modern counterparts.

What Are the Main Risks with Gas Boilers?
As mentioned above, one of the main risks with gas boiler is carbon monoxide leakage, leading to carbon monoxide poisoning and even death. Carbon monoxide is lethal, and you can’t smell it, see it, or taste it. Regular servicing makes sure your boiler is combusting fuel safely and efficiently. Of course, like a vehicle, gas boilers can break down. This can have a huge impact on safety and wellbeing, and can even have financial implications.
