London, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/18/2015 -- An expert witness at a fact-finding inquiry into the tragic deaths of two children whilst on holiday in Corfu in 2006 has explained how a dysfunctional boiler with inadequate safety protections led to their tragic deaths. Robert and Christianne Shepherd, aged 6 and 7 were on holiday with family when they suffered from fatal levels of carbon monoxide poisoning. Whilst their mother bravely continues her campaign into the investigation of their deaths, the Court has heard how a faulty boiler led to the toxic levels of carbon monoxide poisoning which also left the children's mother in a coma.

The most evident implications of the news thus far is the widespread outrage at the travel agency, Thomas Cook, for their failure to adequately inspect the boiler at the bungalow where the tragedy occurred. It is likely that the outcome of the inquiry will impact the responsibility of travel agents to ensure that all residences within their remit comply with adequate health and safety standards.

About Speedy Gas
Speedy Gas are a team of heating engineers based in London, who previously worked with British Gas before branching out on their own when they felt that the heating industry required a more personal approach. A spokesperson for the company was confounded by the news in the Corfu case, 'This is a tremendously tragic event, which is heart-breaking to hear about particularly when you work in this industry. My heart goes out to the parents, it truly is a tragedy and quite deeply upsetting. We understand the potentially dire health and safety risks involved with boilers and all gas appliances. It is a devastating shame that such a preventable event was not paid adequate attention to in time. It makes you wonder what safety standards were in place that could have prevented it from happening. It's something we have been conscious of in the past, so we made sure we were Gas Safe registered and possessed all the necessary accreditations to assure our clients of our proficiency in this area. All our work is carried out to the highest standards of safety and professionalism. We thinks it makes a huge difference to use a company with a more personal touch in this respect and we leave our customers fully confident to contact us with any concerns should they arise, which they rarely do. Again, it is a very tragic case and I hope that this enables people to think a little deeper before selecting companies to obtain these services.'

London, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/19/2015 -- The importance of having an efficient boiler has been made evident by the recent news regarding the installation of a new boiler at PluscardenAbbey, near Elgin, Scotland at the end of 2012. The Abbey is a monastery, the oldest occupied in Britain, with 22 Benedictine monks in residence. Before the new boiler installation, the previous gas-run system was costing about £40,000 a year. It has been replaced with a new biomass boiler which is now making about £17,000 for the order, saving significantly on previous costs.

The news highlights therefore the importance of having an efficient boiler and how much money can potentially be saved. Highlighting the success of effective heating systems, even in an ancient structure, emphasizes how boiler technology can be adapted for a wide variety of circumstances. It certainly has brought much benefit to the monastery, as well as saving money which can be invested in other areas, such as the restoration of the building. In parallelism, a domestic family can potentially make significant savings when opting for a more efficient model of boiler according to their circumstances.

Speedy Gas are leading providers of boiler installation and related services, as well as being frequent commentators in the industry. They have been quick to comment in light of the latest news.

"The story from the monastery in Elgin highlights how having a better boiler can make massive savings," A spokesperson said " although you may have an annual service for your boiler and believe this is sufficient, your old model will eventually reach a point where it may be costing you much more than is viable.

At Speedy Gas, we will be able to recommend the most efficient boiler for your circumstances, and in the long-term. By investing in a modern, sustainable boiler like the example in Elgin, this will allow you to save in bills and related costs over time. It is worth considering."

London, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/29/2015 -- Recent figures released by All Voices, have shown that opting for a more efficient boiler option, such as a condensing boiler, can offer up to 20% more efficiency.

This greater efficiency not only includes cutting down the amount of natural resources in use, but also benefiting the customer directly, in potentially pushing down energy bills.

Therefore, it does appear that efficiency is key when it comes to a boiler choice. Maintaining a boiler can be an oft-neglected area, though it is recommended that for safety as well as efficiency, boilers are safety checked every year.

There are many efficient boiler types available depending on individual needs – including combiboilers and valiant boilers which can be incorporated into even the most enclosed spaces.

Speedy Gas are a London-based plumbing and boiler installation service, also specialising in central heating. They are frequent commentators regarding news and changes in the industry.

"The figures show that making the right boiler choice really can be a move for positive sustainability in any household," a spokesperson said. "The options available to be more efficient in regards to a boiler are ever-increasing. That is why we strive as a company to present our customers with an array of options – allowing them to make a choice which best suits their property, heating and hot water needs.

"A boiler is an essential household component, as they run a number of dependent systems including heating and hot water. That is why it is important that more people are not only aware of their role, but also their potential for lowering household carbon footprints. By making an energy efficient choice today, you are potentially making both a positive contribution to your own wallet and the environment – a real long-term good."

London, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/02/2015 -- Speedy Gas, a provider of boilers and plumbing services in London, have reacted to the announcement that GPs could be allowed to prescribe boilers and insulation to patients in a state of fuel poverty.

Ed Davey, Energy and Climate Change Secretary, is believed to be set to announce to the public a £3m purse to be used to create a new scheme in England.

The scheme would see NHS doctors given the power to prescribe boilers and insulations 'on prescription', helping patients who are fuel-poor and whose diseases are being aggravated by the fact they're living in cold homes.

It's believed that cold weather costs the NHS something to the tune of £1.5bn a year, making worse a number of conditions, including lung diseases, asthma, and even some mental health conditions. Additionally, statistics suggest that roughly 10,000 people in the UK die each year in winter as a consequence of cold homes.

Davey explained: "Talking to GPs and other health professionals, they get frankly fed up when they're just dealing with the symptoms and not the root causes. This all costs money, huge amounts of money, dealing with the blooming symptoms. I want to deal with the root causes. Why hasn't this been done before? I am absolutely furious that people have not done this before.

"For me, this is a no brainer. But I want to create the evidence from the research and from the pilots to show this is a complete no brainer."

Speedy Gas, a company in the UK who offer boiler related services, say such a scheme could help to protect some of the country's most vulnerable – especially in winter months.

A representative for the London-based company said: "We've all heard in recent years about the rising number of people in fuel poverty so it's good to see the government act on the issue and help people who don't have the money stay heated at home. If ill people are costing the NHS so much each year because they don't have the necessary heating in their home, it only makes sense to provide them with boilers and other solutions.

"A well heated home in the winter months has a number of health benefits. As a boiler installation specialist we know first-hand the importance of staying warm when it's freezing cold outside and we look forward to seeing this scheme progress."

London, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/02/2015 -- Recent results show that the Markit/CIPS Purchasing managers index (PMI) has risen to 60.1, a whole point rise and thus the highest level since October. Any score above 50 is indicatory of growth.

Key areas of this growth have been essentially within the commercial, housing and civil engineering sectors – emphasizing engineering as a contributor of key positivity. Involved in this sector are the plumbing and installation company Speedy Gas.

A similar PMI survey, released on Monday, also suggested that growth in manufacturing had reached a seven-month high. In this light, February has seen much growth in a number of key supply and service industries – which therefore shows positivity for the spring. Furthermore, it offers a point of progress as the country builds towards The General Election.

However, although these results appear positive externally, the growth with engineering and related services also means a growth in competition. For example, it may seem increasingly difficult for customers to make a section considering the confusing range of different options available.

Speedy Gas, who conduct a team of fully experienced heating engineers, were quick to comment on the recent results.

"That we are part of an accelerating industry is a fantastic thing," a spokesperson said. "But what is ultimately always our number one priority is customer satisfaction. With the rise of the engineering industry, it obviously takes more to be the top of the game; and in our eyes, this involves putting people first. Some engineering firms may attempt to conceal bad or limited service behind low prices, but we strive to offer both affordability as well asaccessibility. These are two factors often difficult to obtain in London, but as experienced plumbers, planners and engineers ourselves, we have the in-depth knowledge to continue to be a productive part of growth.

"Engineering really is the way forward. We know that knowledge of such a wide field is therefore essential – thus why our team are qualified to work on a range of hot water systems. Diversity and addressing it are two of our key drives."
