Antrim & Newtownabbey is a commuter belt on the northern edge of Belfast, home to around 145,000 people across towns like Newtownabbey, Antrim and Ballyclare. The district mixes large post-war and modern commuter estates around Newtownabbey and Glengormley, older town-centre stock in Antrim, and dispersed rural housing toward Lough Neagh.
For an oil boiler engineer that usually means oil boiler installs, servicing and tank work. Newtownabbey sits on the Phoenix gas network and Antrim town is on the firmus network, but rural parts of the district remain largely oil-heated, in line with the NI pattern of roughly two-thirds of homes on oil.
