Common Questions
How do I know if my flue contains asbestos?
Asbestos flue pipes are typically grey, have a slightly rough texture, and are found on older boiler installations. The only definitive way to confirm is laboratory analysis of a sample.
Can a plumber remove an asbestos flue?
No. Asbestos removal requires UKATA-certified operatives. A plumber can disconnect the appliance, but the asbestos flue itself must be removed by a licensed contractor.
