During periods of extremely cold weather, the main cause of boiler breakdowns is what's known as a 'frozen condensate'. The condensate pipe normally takes away excess water vapour droplets from the boiler to an external drain. The pipe can freeze if installed incorrectly or if insulation is damaged/removed. The video below shows the required steps to safely defrost a condensate pipe.

SOME KIND WORDS FROM
OUR CLIENTS

Mr Mchamish - Boiler replacement

York

Just had our second boiler fitted by MCS, and I must say that the standard of workmanship was second to none. The engineer sorted all the old pipework, and spent three days installing and checking that all was working efficiently.

Barry Halls - Boiler replacement

Brough

Just had a full boiler and heating upgrade completed by MCS.
The work included changing from a back boiler to a complete new system with new efficient boiler fitted in the airing cupboard, new radiators throughout and new shower.
The 2 fitters were very professional, prompt, clean and trustworthy. The work was completed in just 4 days and we had hot water throughout apart from the switch over. Fantastic job. Highly recommend

Mr Eckersley - Underfloor Heating & Boiler Installation -

Hull

Great and professional service from start to finish fitting my new boiler and underfloor heating. Would definitely recommend and use again.

Julie Wilson - Emergency Leak Repair -

Hull

I rang MCS for assistance after experiencing a water leak through my kitchen ceiling. Rob arrived later the same day and he was an absolute superstar! Within half an hour he had found a leak in my cold water pipe, fixed it and I was able to turn my water and heating back on. The office staff who dealt with my call and payment were also very friendly and efficient. I was extremely impressed with the service I received from this company and I would highly recommend them.

Gary Vernon - Boiler Installation -

Hull

Brilliant company always friendly and quick to help, sorted my boiler out in no time at all. Really pleased with your response 😀 update we needed a new boiler rob the engineer who came to fit it couldn't have been more helpful.He was very professional and excellent at what he was doing, it was a pleasure to have him fit the boiler 😀

Tom Harrison - Oil Boiler Installation -

Hull

Excellent service from start to finish.
Harry came to quote up, and explained things to us. He then did the groundwork for the oil tank, keeping us informed at every stage. An unfortunate delay from their supplier meant putting the actual install back a week, but MCS kept is fully informed at every single stage about what was happening. The Brilliant Tim did the actual install of the boiler. Again, keeping us informed at every single stage about what he was doing. 100% would recommend.

Justin Morris - Boiler Installation -

Hull

One of the MCS central heating engineers, has just left after spending the last three days here fitting a new boiler and doing a fairly extensive overhaul of my heating system.

What a star he is. Really friendly, turned up bang on time and worked his **** off, and kept me informed all the way through, but without bombarding me with useless or overly technical information. Can't praise him highly enough.

I'm a very happy MCS customer.

Jo Prest - Emergency Callout -

Hull

Amazing service. Called them out on Easter Sunday of all days and they came in no time. Very happy with the service

James - Leak Repair

We had a hole in a pipe under the bathtub, I Facebook messaged at 10pm, fixed and back to normal by 8.30am the next morning, rapid response and a knowledgable fix for the problem we had. Thank you!

Ruth Atkinson - Pipework Repair -

Hull

MCS attended out of hours to my mothers home when her pipework froze last night, I cannot thank them enough for the time he spent repairing the leak and helping us clear up the damage. The office acted professionally and called me this morning to check if we required any further assistance. Truly great customer service. Thank you.

This company have been amazing at a very difficult time for everyone. Had no hot water, came out and found that we need a new boiler! ( We have thought that for a while, and put it off!) After phone call sorting finance out, due to social distancing, boiler is being fitter tomorrow, with even the fitter offering to work the weekend! Couldn't thank them enough.

Excellent service and very polite and personable engineers

Uxinox - Boiler Repair -

Kirkella

MCS reacted immediately to our request for a boiler service. Harry arrived on time and considering the weather, in good spirits. Ours is an outside oil Worcester Bosch boiler and Harry took it to bits and reassembled it, cleaning everything and replacing damaged hoses. The job took over an hour and I watched him do it. He worked quickly and with obvious expertise. Would highly recommend MCS. We shall definitely use them next year!

Julie Dixon - Office Assistance

Hull

Great service again from MCS . Nicola who took my call about us having no hot water or heating, and the boiler displaying low pressure talked me through getting the pressure back up ,and thus no engineer needed to come out to us .A true honest company that doesn't rip you off ! Such a refreshing experience !
Thankyou

Mrs Pooley - New Boiler Hull

My wife dealt with MCS Heating and she has written this review. MCS Heating has exceeded our expectations with regards to service efficiency, professionalism and value for money. I rang the emergency number on a Saturday morning (I have boiler cover with them), an engineer came out after lunch to check our boiler, then on Monday and Tuesday an engineer called Richard came out (all day on both days) to install our new boiler, check all the pipe work, repair leaks and flush the system, etc. This was very thorough and the quality of the work was to very high standards. The customer service is brilliant at this company and all the staff are so friendly and helpful. A huge thank you to Richard, who treated my home with respect and went that extra mile to provide exceptional customer service. Thanks MCS Heating.

Fr. Brown - Church Boiler Room

We were very happy with how the project was managed from start to finish; it involved the installation of five new boilers, associated plumbing and removal of the old ones. We had a detailed description of what was proposed and a breakdown of costs, specifying what sums of money were due and when. We have knew the company from previous works here and have found MCS easy to deal with and trustworthy. All the work has been carried out as proposed and on schedule, we never had to chase them up. In short, we are very happy with the result and quality of work and are happy to recommend this firm.

Dear MCS, I am writing to express my absolute delight at the superb level of care my family received from one of your engineers. He was called out to attend to our boiler on two occasions, the second of which proved to be extremely tricky, time consuming and a frustrating problem.

Just a note to express my thanks to your gas engineer who spent the last two days here fitting a new combi boiler. I was very impressed with his attention to detail in what proved to be a challenging job. He kept me informed about what he was doing throughout the process and cleaned up after the work. I will be very happy to have him here in the future.

Marien T - Boiler installation

I am writing to say how pleased we were with the way your engineer installed the new central heating boiler for us on Monday and Tuesday. It was a pleasure to welcome him into our home. He could not have been more pleasant and helpful and we appreciated all he did very much indeed. If everyone who works for you is like him then it is no wonder that you continue to be a successful business.
