Flue Inspection in Gas Boilers

On a gas boiler, one of the things our engineer will check during a cp42 is the condition of the flue. The flue is the pipe that takes waste gases from the boiler out of your property.

Importance of Flue Condition for Gas Safety

If the flue isn’t in good condition, it could be leaking poisonous carbon monoxide gas into your home. That’s why it’s important to make sure the flue is in good condition and properly sealed. If the Flue Is not properly sealed it will let the poisonous gas in the property, the flue is normally sealed using the flue cement specifically designed to seal a boiler flue, if you need to get your flue and boiler checked please contact us and book a gas safety inspection on commercial boiler for £159.99 with no hidden cost.

Avoiding Gas Risks of Boiler Flue Distance from Openable Windows

if your boiler flue is next to an openable window as a general rule, the boiler flue should be at least 12 inches away from any windows. This is to ensure that gas fumes are properly vented and not able to enter the home. If you have a gas safety inspection coming up, it’s a good idea to check the distance of your boiler flue from any nearby windows or leave it to us, and we will take care of it, even if the flue is less then 12 inches we can help you extend the flue using flue extension and give you a pass Commercial Gas Safety Certificate or CP 42.

The aim of the inspection is to ensure that the hob or cooker is safe to use and poses no risks to those using it.
