Really confused on flue position

[Harvest Fields]

Contact the letting agent and tell them you want a different engineer sent out to inspect and the work outing right. Especially the fire. If they say no then contact gas safe.

looks like there used to be a BF boiler at some time, Proberly find that window never had a opening on that side and new DG windows fitted and the flue has been overlooked typical of DG company's But you need to get this fire problem sorted if its pulling in smoke

I bet it hasn’t got a cowl on and the jackdaw has gone to town.

Thank you guys, been a real help. Have attached a picture of the boiler and what not. The chimney was supposedly swept just before we moved in... once again I’m skeptical.

Well that looks like it is as snug as a bug in a rug.

Thanks. Chimney may have been swept but without correct ventilation you’re never gonna get the pull

Little update, which has left me even more confused!

So having messaged the leggings conpany, who were not helpful at all “it wouldn’t have been signed off if it wasn’t safe” So I insisted on a second opinion from a different engineer, as it’s nowhere near the 600mm distance. So she finally agreed to send out an engineer (the same one)

Later that day I get an email saying it’s coming platelet safe to use, but he’s unplugged it anyway and that it’s up to us if we turn it on. And could she please have he contact information of the engineer who told me to raise the issue with them (also registered) Gwt home to find stickers over the boiler saying it’s unsafe to use and a form saying it’s been ‘ID’.....

Call out gas safe mate it’s free

The letting agent is skating on thin ice. If you have their gas cert I’d check the credentials of their engineer

ID is a massive difference from Safe.
