About Hockerill
Older Stortford district with Victorian and Edwardian terraces — flue routing requires careful planning.
Strong mix — Victorian terraces in the old centre, post-war housing in Thorley, and large new-build estates expanding north.
- New-build combi boilers approaching first major service interval
- Victorian terrace flue routing constraints
- Hard water from the chalk aquifer accelerates scale build-up in heat exchangers
