Important: Fault codes are a guide only and do not replace proper diagnosis. Do not remove boiler covers or attempt gas, combustion, flue, electrical or internal boiler repairs yourself.

What does a gas leak smell like?

Natural gas is odourless, but an odourant is added so leaks are easier to detect. It is commonly described as a strong sulphur or rotten-egg smell. Carbon monoxide is different: it has no smell, colour or taste, so a working carbon monoxide alarm is important around fuel-burning appliances.
