Finally, before we get right into the tips, you can find out more about our boiler services on the website; including installation, servicing and repairs.Lag the Pipes The boiler's external condensate pipe can freeze when the temperature outside drops below zero. Thus, causing the boiler to cut out as part of the safety precaution. You can prevent this by pouring warm water over the ice on the pipe to cause the ice to melt. Alternatively, there are two other options; insulate the pipes or keeping the heating on low constantly to keep the pipe from freezing up.
