Common problems
Pilot Light Keeps Going Out
A standing pilot on a fire, back boiler or water heater lights, then blows out minutes or hours later.
No Heating Or Hot Water
The boiler is dead or running without producing anything: the whole system has stopped, not one radiator.
Gas Appliance Condemned Or Capped Off
An engineer has attached a warning notice and turned your boiler, fire or cooker off: here is what that classification means.
Boiler Losing Pressure
You top the gauge up to 1.5 bar and days or hours later it has dropped again.
Boiler Stopped In Freezing Weather
The boiler cut out overnight in a hard frost and is gurgling or showing a fault code: usually a frozen condensate pipe.
Boiler Kettling Or Banging
The boiler rumbles, whistles or bangs like a kettle coming to the boil when the heating fires.
