So it reached -14C in my neck of the woods over the weekend.
We generally have about 100 +/- overnight emergency callouts for an entire month. Over Saturday and Sunday we had 118 callouts, 23 burst pipes (roughly equal number of downed ceilings) and lord only knows what else.
Went to one today where they had already cut out three bursts over the weekend and found three more today. The silly woman doesn't use her central heating much cos she's never home. It got so cold in her house that the bloody cast iron HEX froze and split too.
Geez it narks me to have a hang a new boiler in that (mucky!) house where she'll hardly use it and would let that one freeze but for the built in frost stat.
Social housing does my nut ... (if I had one!). :censored:
