Key points

Gas, combustion and carbon monoxide

A gas water heater is not handled yourself and requires permanent ventilation that is never blocked. Carbon monoxide cannot be seen or smelled: headaches, nausea, tiredness or dizziness affecting several people, or easing when you go outside, mean opening the windows, switching the appliance off, going out and calling the emergency services. If you smell gas, touch no switch and call from outside.

Quote and vigilance in an emergency

An emergency call-out is still a service that can be discussed: ask for the estimated amount before the work starts, a detailed invoice at the end, and refuse to sign a document you have not read. Be wary of anyone piling up unjustified replacements, demanding immediate cash payment or refusing to put their estimate in writing. The worker must be qualified for the work concerned.

What affects the price

nature of the work;
equipment and parts;
difficulty of access;
length of the job;
number of units involved.

The rate is agreed with the worker based on these elements.
