Comments on: The Heating Saga Continues! http://www.cheriesplace.me.uk/blog/index.php/2017/02/25/the-heating-saga-continues/ Random thoughts and photos of my journey through life… Wed, 15 Apr 2026 05:35:26 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: CherryPie http://www.cheriesplace.me.uk/blog/index.php/2017/02/25/the-heating-saga-continues/comment-page-1/#comment-47248 CherryPie Mon, 27 Feb 2017 23:18:11 +0000 http://www.cheriesplace.me.uk/blog/?p=18202#comment-47248 We pay a monthly amount of money which allows us a free annual check and free call outs, which are usually the next day unless it is an emergency when it is sooner. Some would argue it is cheaper to pay as you go. But we have certainly had our moneys worth over the years. Also peace of mind that someone will come when you call. We have additional cover for plumbing and electrics. In the UK we have several companies that do this, but our service is with the Gas Board.

Do you have to pay every time they come.. I mean, we have to pay a fee even before they come.. 'travel fee to drive up to the house' mostly around the €50-€75 :( ... I hope they finally found the problem. The food looks great. ‘the never ending story of the heating’..

We had a magna clean fitting which the gunk is supposed to cling to.

I survived the winter of 1962/63, though, without any central heating. Now I'm much more of a wimp. The meal looks delicious. Heating will always go wrong where the need for warmth is the greatest.
