Cheers. I'll advise her to get someone out. I haven't been to the house whilst she's had the problem - so I'll have a look to see if there's anything I can see that's obvious. I'd doubt it is CO though, as the boiler is in the kitchen and the stronger smell is upstairs in the airing cupboard where the tank is. But a detector is a good idea anyway like you said.
CO, is a colourless, odourless, tasteless yet highly toxic gas. Its molecules consist of one carbon atom well you know all that anyway.......
