Chap came to service boiler in a relative's house. Said it was old and just advised a modern condensing boiler was recommended. He didn't test it or even turn it on. It is about 20 years old but had been working ok up until my relative died. He tested the line at the meter which showed what he said was a leak and capped the supply there and then. It was a permanent pilot and I have a suspicion it was that that was showing as a leak, I don't think at this stage he had shut the pilot off.
I think I will get that checked out by another.
However, he also advised that I could not touch the boiler and take it out/dispose of it, even if it was being replaced. Is this correct. As I said, the meter is capped off. I appreciate there would be the need to isolate power and drain boiler etc)
