Tenements and commuter estates
Falkirk's position between Glasgow and Edinburgh has made Larbert, Stenhousemuir and the Braes villages popular with commuters, and many of their 1990s and 2000s homes have system boilers with cylinders or early condensing combis now reaching the end of their working lives. Around Grangemouth, older council-built semis and four-in-a-block flats are more typical, each flat with its own boiler and often a flue on a shared gable wall.
Older tenement flats near the centre have combis in kitchens with flues through thick walls. Newer estates in Larbert and Polmont have family homes on their first or second boiler.
With a long Scottish heating season, annual servicing helps keep boilers reliable.

Heating homes in Scotland
Scotland's longer, colder heating season puts boilers under more strain than in most of the UK. In the cities, tenement and four-in-a-block flats often have the boiler in a kitchen or cupboard with limited flue options, and large stone villas can have big, older systems. Many rural and island homes are off the gas grid altogether. Gas work in Scotland must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer, as elsewhere in the UK.
Whatever the job, anyone working on a gas boiler, gas fire or gas supply must be on the Gas Safe Register – ask to see their ID card and check the back for the work they're qualified to do. How to check an engineer.
