How Did The Beast From The East Affect The Nation's Boilers?

It might have taken until the beginning of March, but the UK finally got its annual dose of winter snow thanks to a combination of the Beast From The East and Storm Emma creating havoc throughout the country.

At Fixflo, we’re uniquely placed to see exactly what the effect of all that snow was on homes from Scotland to Cornwall. We thought it would be easier to show you, rather than explain, so we’ve produced an infographic drawing on publicly-available Met Office data and our own in-system data.

  • We were able to help tenants solve around 1,500 issues via our in-system advice on 1st March, thus ensuring freed-up capacity for busy property managers
  • With temperatures at their coldest on 28th February, there were 1,800 boiler issues subsequently reported using the Fixflo system on both 1st and 2nd March
