    Pipes are frozen, tank is empty, can I use the heating?

    Thanks DavyJones for confirming that and for all the replies. Just had the plumber on and he said as long as the pipes on the boiler aren't frozen it should be fine and he installed it so yipee, I'm off to turn on the heat!! All I need now is water!

    Pipes are frozen, tank is empty, can I use the heating?

    Dirac, thanks for that. We are actually on the mains supply not a pump system so not sure if any of that applies to me. I can't even get in attic to see tank etc as I need a set of ladders and hubby is away!! I'm afraid I'll get in more trouble if I try to go up there!

    Pipes are frozen, tank is empty, can I use the heating?

    Hi there, We are 4 days without water. We reckon the pipes are frozen. The mains went first and then we drained the tank. We now realise this was foolish. Can we still use the oil fired heating?? It's off at the moment but this weather is not improving and I'm getting mixed advice. Thanks in...
