If you have noticed that the radiator in your bedroom isn’t heating up properly when switched on, it's more than likely that there is an issue with your central heating. If you are replacing your entire central heating system, you will need to work out how many functioning working radiators you need in your home when contacting a heating company, so don’t forget your bedroom!

    Central Heating Maintenance

  • Gas Fire Installation and Repairs:

    As with gas cookers, if your gas fire is installed or repaired incorrectly the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning increases considerably. A blockage in your chimney may cause highly toxic gases to become trapped and escape via the fire in your home. If you suspect this may be a problem in your property, do not use the fire and contact a Gas Safe engineer immediately.

    Kitchen

    An audible carbon monoxide alarm must be installed to detect any traces of carbon monoxide gas in the air.

    Gas Cooker Installation

    A clear warning sign that your gas cooker is not working properly and may need replacing is if the flame has changed from crisp blue to a tall yellow colour. When it comes to the installation, if a gas cooker is fitted incorrectly, the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning significantly increases.

  • Boiler Installation

    Boilers typically last for up to 15 years, so if you have noticed that yours is reaching the end of its life or it isn’t working as well as it used to, it’s probably time for a replacement. Warning signs of a broken boiler include:
    • black stains on or around the unit
    • leaking or dripping
    • low pressure
    • banging, rumbling or whistling sounds from the unit
    • radiators do not heat properly when switched on

    Despite being an odourless gas, a distinctive smell is added to LPG as a safety measure - if you can smell gas in or around your home, make sure you contact a Gas Safe registered company immediately.

    LPG Gas Installation

    Typically stored in a tank outside your home, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is the ideal fuel source for heating appliances and, in some cases, cooking equipment. Such substances must be handled with complete care to avoid any accidents, so hiring a Gas Safe registered expert with the relevant credentials will ensure all LPG services are carried out safely.
