Why Regular Flue Inspections are Vital for Duns Homeowners

Many assume that if their boiler is working, the flue is fine. Unfortunately, that's not always the case. Over time, flues can degrade due to weather exposure, corrosion, or even blockages. Regular inspections, especially annually with your boiler service, can identify issues before they become critical. This is particularly important in older properties where chimneys may not be adequately lined for modern, high-efficiency boilers. We make the whole process straightforward and are happy to answer any questions.
