The central heating pump in our house failed soon after we bought the house. But we didn't realise immediately and spent a few days saying "I knew the underfloor heating doesn't respond quickly, but this is ridiculous, the house is getting colder and colder". Then a few days phoning plumbers who said "we couldn't possibly do anything before the New Year" and/or "we wouldn't do anything that far out of town" and/or "we wouldn't touch underfloor heating". Eventually we found someone who could source a suitable pump in a reasonableish time (at least an almost suitable one - we've just (4 years later) been told it should really have been a bronze one, not steel). We installed a wood burning stove while waiting for it to arrive.
