I think we are agreeing that there is a problem with combustion and ventilation. I am confused about the word "leak". I do not believe that there is raw natural gas in the house but rather exhaust coming in. Totally agree we need do get fixed asap, find venting problem and ensure combustion...

Thank you! I am pushing the issue with my HVAC guys and insisting on a combustion analysis. Is there any other cause for the exhaust entering the house besides poor ventilation? Could it be a problem with the boiler itself such as a timing mismatch between the flame and the release of gas...
