Your boiler could be turned off if flue cannot be fully inspected
Some properties, mainly flats and apartments, have been built with boiler flues which cannot be inspected because they are hidden behind walls or ceilings.
Gas Safe registered engineers need to be able to see the flue − which take fumes away from the boiler − as part of essential safety checks whenever the boiler is worked on. A flue in poor condition, combined with a boiler that is not working properly, could put you and your family in danger from carbon monoxide poisoning, which can cause death or serious injury.
Today, March 11th is World Plumbing Day, a day to celebrate the role of plumbing and plumbers in our societies and to acknowledge the importance of the work they do.
