• Diagnosis and inspection — The engineer will ask about the symptoms you've noticed, inspect the boiler, controls and (for repair visits) the relevant components of the heating system.
• Clear explanation — Before touching anything, our engineers explain in plain language what they've found and what the options are. We never start work without your agreement.

Carbon Monoxide Safety — What Manchester Homeowners Need to Know

Carbon monoxide (CO) is produced by incomplete combustion of gas in a faulty boiler or heating appliance. It is colourless, odourless and kills around 40 people in the UK every year. Our heating engineers check for CO emissions as part of every boiler service and safety inspection. Here's what you need to know:

• Symptoms of CO poisoning — Headache, dizziness, nausea, shortness of breath and confusion — particularly if they get better when you leave the house. If you suspect CO poisoning, get outside immediately and call 999.
• Carbon monoxide detectors — Every home with gas appliances should have a CO detector fitted by the nearest appliance. From October 2022, landlords in England are legally required to provide CO detectors in rooms with a gas appliance. We supply and fit CO detectors as part of our service.
• Warning signs from your boiler — A yellow or orange flame (should be blue), sooty marks around the boiler, pilot lights that frequently go out, and excessive condensation are all warning signs that your boiler may be producing CO. If you notice any of these, stop using the appliance and call a Gas Safe engineer immediately.

Our annual boiler service includes a full flue gas analysis that measures combustion efficiency and checks for CO. This is one of the most important safety checks any homeowner can have done.

How to Find a Good Heating Engineer in Manchester

With so many heating engineers claiming to work in Manchester, it can be difficult to know who to trust. Here are the key things to look for:

• Gas Safe registration — Always check the engineer is on the Gas Safe Register at gassaferegister.co.uk before they start any work. By law, all gas work must be carried out by a registered engineer. Our registration is always available to verify.
• Fixed pricing before work starts — A trustworthy heating engineer will give you a fixed price before starting work, not an estimate that grows on the day. We never add extras without your agreement.
• Genuine third-party reviews — Look for real customer reviews on Google or Trustpilot, not just testimonials on the company's own website. Our reviews are genuine and verifiable.
• Local knowledge and accountability — A locally based heating engineer knows Greater Manchester's housing stock, responds faster, and has a genuine local reputation to protect. We're based in Irlam and serve Manchester homeowners every day.
• Manufacturer accreditation — Worcester Bosch Accredited Installers can offer longer manufacturer warranties (up to 12 years) that standard engineers cannot. We hold this accreditation.
