The London boiler cashback scheme launched by the Mayor of London this year can benefit homeowners and landlords looking to replace their old inefficient boilers with new energy efficient boilers.

Terry is featured in an article which draws our attention to the growing problem that Gas Safe engineers encounter increasingly. A survey showed that 20% of respondents believe there is an increase in counterfeit parts being used in the service and maintenance of boilers

With cash strapped homeowners demanding the best priced goods and services, heating installers may be put in the difficult position of either fitting a non-genuine part or not getting the job.

Best practice recommended is to inform the customer of the risks involved in using an “aftermarket” part. Parts from a reputable manufacturer will have been tested in the most demanding conditions to ensure durability. Non-genuine parts represent a significant risk to the homeowner and the industry.

Their new product introduction process takes several months and can cost millions of pounds, but is vital to ensure each part and product is fit for the job.
