Can some one please give me advice on this, we had a gas enginer come round today to solve the problem with it going out. This is now mended turned out the pilot light was not strong enough so it was missing the sensor or some thing. Any how in the mean time when he took the fire off he found that the fire that was there was not the original fire that should be with the back boiler. Some thins about the flu that goes into the boiler he fire that was there was a baxi fire but not a fire that goes with the boiler so it had been hashed up with a bit of metal and other parts in order to make it fit which we was informed was highly dangerous and the way it was in there we where lucky we didnt run the fire as the fumes had no way of being stopped from coming out and gasing us. So he disconected the fire etc and then put it all back together. I asked him if this was safe and would it be effecting the gas boiler fumes and he assured me that this was perfectly safe and that the fumes would be going straight up the chimney. We just been doing some searching on the net for the fire etc and every time we find a piece about the fire and boiler it says that it is dangerous to run the boiler with out the fire being connected into the flume....Is this is case if it is what can i do??? I have two small kids running about the place and it scares the pants off me that he might have left me with a dangerous boiler
