<p>Top tip &#8211; dont leave your taps dripping. While its this cold outside, constant drips can form into ice and block even a correctly installed waste pipe.</p>
<p>Worse still, dont ignore dripping overflow pipes. If an overflow pipe freezes it could lead to the tank or toilet cistern overflowing inside your house. If in doubt turn off the stop cock and call a Plumber.</p>
<p>lastly, dont forget to turn off the stop cock and leave the heating on if you go away this Christmas.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While it is SUMMER time and all the Gas Boilers are relaxing in the sun, its worth taking a moment to consider if they will start up again and be well behaved this winter.</p>
<p><em>Costing from just 25p per day, boiler breakdown insurance covers you for what you dread the  most … the cost of heating breakdowns!</em></p>
<p>The policy, offered by  Bluefin and underwritten by Aviva, is flexible  and still allows you to choose to cover the boiler or the complete system including pipes, pumps and valves. Like all Insurance,  terms and conditions do apply, the most important ones are: the boiler must be  less than 15 years old and be annually serviced. We are offering a special  price of £45 + VAT for boiler servicing for all Customers who take  up the scheme this summer. (10mile radius of Harrogate only)</p>
<p>To find out more, <a title="Contact our office" href="http://www.hometechuk.com/contact_us.htm" target="_blank">contact our office</a> and we will send you details of the scheme in the post.</p>
<p>Should you wish to take  up this service, simply read through and complete the leaflet and post  it, together with your premium to Bluefin. Please do let us know when you have  done this, so that we can ensure that the boiler in your property receives the  special price service..</p>
