The UK is set to be gripped by a cold snap this week as temperatures plummet, with some areas including Dartmoor and Devon already seeing heavy snowfall overnight.
As we all look to stay as warm as possible amid the wintry conditions, heating engineers have issued a stark warning about how the cold weather could be impacting our boilers.
Experts at Toolstation said that boilers may stop working in the cold as insufficiently insulated condensate pipes are likely to freeze up and become blocked - meaning you'll have no access to hot water or central heating until the problem is fixed and your boiler is working again.
