Most of us would know who to call in this situation and the majority of us have a service contract for our gas boiler, but don’t forget that your gas fire requires a service once a year too. To ensure your warranty is valid for the up and coming years and that your fire is going to be working on those cosy Christmas mornings you could contact homeserve or British Gas.

Also to find out about gas safety and why you should always use a Gas Safe engineer for fitting and servicing gas appliances it is worth taking a look at the Gas Safe website.
