The warning follows a Health and Safety Executive investigation into the deaths of two Newtownabbey teenagers at an apartment in Castlerock last week.

The HSE is advising anyone who had work done by George Brown, trading as George Brown of 'The Calor Shop' in Coleraine, to switch off all gas appliances.

'The Calor Shop' is an entirely separate legal entity to Calor Gas (NI) Limited.

The Health and Safety Executive set up a helpline for people concerned. The number to call is 0800 0320 121.

The HSENI said it had had a "strong response" to its emergency helpline number.
