What's involved in installation

We connect the appliance to the gas supply correctly, check ventilation requirements are met, ensure any necessary flue is installed and functioning properly, and carry out a full safety check before considering the appliance ready for use. This includes confirming the appliance is burning correctly and not producing excessive carbon monoxide.

Why regular servicing matters

Gas appliances should be serviced regularly, generally annually, to confirm they're still operating safely and efficiently. Over time, appliances can develop issues that aren't always obvious from the outside, like a burner that's not combusting cleanly, which can increase carbon monoxide production without any visible warning sign. Regular servicing catches this before it becomes dangerous.

Signs your gas appliance needs attention

• A change in the flame colour, particularly if it's burning more yellow or orange rather than a clean blue
• Soot or staining around the appliance, which can indicate incomplete combustion
• Pilot lights that keep going out unexpectedly
• Condensation or dampness on nearby windows that wasn't there before, which can be linked to ventilation issues affecting the appliance

Carbon monoxide risk and why it matters

Carbon monoxide is colourless and odourless, which is exactly why gas appliances need professional checking rather than relying on noticing something's wrong yourself. A correctly maintained appliance with adequate ventilation poses minimal risk, but a fault left unchecked can develop into a genuine danger without any obvious warning until it's serious.
