The problem

At 12:30am we got a call from a 100-bed care home in Farnworth. The plant room's pressurisation unit had failed. It had flooded the plant room and was knocking out the hot water and heating for the whole home.

What we did

Our engineer went straight to site. We made the unit electrically safe, isolated it from the water supply and stopped the flood, so the plant room was safe and no more water was coming in.

Why it matters

"This is why it's important you have a 24 hour, 7 day a week gas engineering company looking after your care home. Otherwise, who would have fixed it?" Andy Foster, AAC Gas
