Did you know that now is the perfect time of the year to get your boiler and gas appliances tested?
As the days get colder, you may be thinking about turning your central heating on.
But before you do, you may want to consider getting your boiler and gas appliances checked out by a Gas Safe Register Engineer 👩🔧👨🔧
Kris' boiler was due for a service, but as happens when you have a busy family life, they forgot about it and left it be. Then one day, Carly, his wife, called him to say their Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarm near their boiler was going off, even after changing the batteries.
A call out to the National Gas Emergency helpline, and 20 minutes later, an NGN engineer was at their house. A reading confirmed that their boiler was, in fact leaking CO into their home.
A Gas Safe Registered Engineer checked and made the boiler safe, but the incident has put gas safety at the forefront of the family's minds. In Kris' own words: “It’s just not worth the risk. Please check your appliances and get a CO alarm. It could save your life.”
