A service engineer mate of mine did a landlords on a boiler, and all the tenant was bothered about was seeing if he would condemn it. It's a large house and the bills are high she said. If you condemn it we can have a cheaper to run system.
he did all the checks and said, there's nothing wrong with it.
they are on a pre pay meter, so have to re-light the pilot every time the run out of credit.
Then a few days ago he gets an irate call from the letting agent, who says the tenant has had a shock from the boiler and is saying needs it replacing now! She is going to ring gas safe as its only been a couple of weeks since being checked.
my mate goes out to find the situation below. And asks, "did you get a shock when lighting the boiler after your credit ran out"? Yes was the reply!!!!
looks like they've been messing.
