Why South Shields Homeowners Need a Gas Fire Flue Inspection

You might think your gas fire is working fine, but potential problems with the flue are often invisible to the naked eye. Over time, flues can become blocked with debris, corroded by the elements, or even damaged by birds' nests. These blockages can lead to a build-up of deadly carbon monoxide (CO) in your home. CO is a colourless, odourless gas that can cause serious health problems and even death. A professional flue inspection is the only way to guarantee your flue is clear and functioning correctly.
