@@Tommy6gs Thanks for your support….I know I speak slowly, it’s deliberate. So many students complain that teachers talk too quickly! Great to hear that you’ve found a speed that suits you😀👍 Hope that the video helped…
Hi Mr, thank you so much, ive passed my Acs on Friday. Last time I failed paper 2 legislation, after that I found your channel, your videos really helped me to know how to navigate the book at Acs last week. I only had one Oral in legislation paper. Thanks again. I appreciate your previous tips and advice in replying to my previous comments.
@@passyourgas 100% helped me in legislation and how to be prepared for practical. I need your advice please, I'm a family guy, the company I went out with building the portfolio, they've offered me a job, they said they'll be there for me and help me gaining more experience, they also provide me van and fuel card. Been told I can use for personal use, so I'm currently a plumber I can use for my other work. In your experience Do you think I take the offer? Thanks
Thank you! I passed my ACS at Brookehouse last Thursday....these videos you have made have helped me over the past year while I have been preparing for the exam.
I understand now…right, you sleeve the pipe through the floor/ceiling…then, seal the sleeve to the brickwork gap using fire resistant mastic Then you seal off the sleeve AT ONE END ONLY between the sleeve and the pipework (this is to stop any leak in the pipework within the sleeve placing gas on two separate floors) My advice would be to seal it at the bottom end…my viper page for this is K18 and the paragraph is called Pipe Sleeving …
I find a lot of grey areas in the gas industry- so as an example I’m doing a new gas run in a loft space . But the way the joists run (Horizontally) is the same way my gas pipe needs to go , therefore noticing is not and option, Can it be clipped to the top of a joist
Hi Charlie, thanks for the question. You can run pipes on top of joists if there’s enough space between the joist and the flooring or whatever else is above it…the notching and drilling rules are only applicable if you have to negotiate a joist running across your pipework. Hope that helps…
@@passyourgas another one you could hopefully help me with.. so I'm looking to do a new gas run in-between floors on a property I'm working in. The builder is trying to make as little mess as possible. (keep the cost down) normally I would be run behind plaster board or chase it within the wall.. however this time they have requested to run in between floors clipped to the wall. (in the corner) reading through volume 2 of the viper book I can't seem to find anything which says its against the rules as long as its sleeved both ends. equally I can't seem to find anything to confirm its ok !
All your videos really helping me out in this stage where I'm preparing for my Acs. Thank you so much. Can I ask when you said visit your website the link is in the description below the video? I didn't find any link, you meant your RU-vid chennal or there a website you have I can visit?
@@passyourgas no worries Mr, no everyone have teaching quality and easily learn from, but Your teaching skills is amazing pal. What training centre do you teach at? I'm thinking about heat pump course after passed my acs. At the moment I'm trying to bring food on the table for the family and beside trying to make time to read and practise so I can do it and end all the stress. It's just English being my Third language, slows me down.
Hi Miran, I don’t teach at college any more, I’m retired. I do the channel just to help people like you who want a better life for their families. Keep studying, once you get your gas ticket you become a member of an exclusive club and you’ll be able to earn good money and improve the lives of your family. I wish you luck and blessings.
@@passyourgas that's very nice of you doing this to help people like me and share your knowledge and experiences with us, not every retired tutor or gas engineer would do that, I very much appreciate what you and thanks. I'll keep you advice in mind thanks. Yes why I do this so I can build a better future for myself and especially the family. I've been through lots of difficult time from young ages, it's only since I live in the UK I can concentrate on studying and gaining qualifications, isn't easy, but I do my best. I find this Acs too difficult, I just can't wait to pass it all, of course it required lots studying.
Thank you That's what exactly happened to me, I failed the regulation part, I couldn't find the answers.. Thanks again, this gave me an idea for next time.
@@passyourgas I'm looking forward to it. My acs in next 6 weeks, I really need to work hard and pass this time. I'm keep watching your videos. Thank you so much
Hello Amer, What control valve are you asking about? Is it the Emergency Control Valve that sits just before the meter? If so, what would you like to know about it? Thanks.
Thanks for that. I’ve done videos on those controls, just look at the list of my videos and you will see them, thermostats, multifunction valves, liquid and vapour phials, fsd’s are all in there…if you can’t find them let me know….thanks..
Another fantastic video, this something I'm nervous about due to English my second language somtimes I need to read things twice or more to understand and that's slows me down, . And this part is to write down the answer makes it twice default. Hope you do more videos and show us examples of how to write a clean short answer to satify the assessor. Thank you
Brilliant video, thanks for that and we'll explanation. I need more about how the references work, please in which other videos of gas ligeslations explaines references in details? Ligeslations I was struggle on the paper exam.
You're videos are fantastic, and your teaching quality absolutely amazing. Please don't stop, people like me doing gas course needs your videos. Looking forward for more videos. I have watched the ligeslations videos says part 1, but couldn't find part 2. Please update us with more videos. Thanks
Thanks Miran. I’ve just started teaching again after a year off so I’ll be posting more stuff very soon…if there’s anything you want just let me know and I’ll make a video to help you out. Good Luck with the course..
@@passyourgas Hi Mr, I'm glad you're OK and starting again with videos. Ive to say the way you're going through things calmly and explaining things so perfectly, anyone student of yours can pass their Acs. I recently failed my Acs, I was struggling with paper exams especially in legislation. Now I'm thinking rebook my acs for June, I really need help your tips and advice are appreciated please
Hi, great vid. Although I understood that if the situation isn’t made safe, you need to label an AR situation as well as an ID situation as well as ask the customer for permission to turn it off. Only difference is that if they don’t give you permission, you don’t notify the ESP and then go on your merry way. Is that not the case?
Riddor, I reported and it can be a housing accociation and gas safe has nothing to do about it. Phone gas safe and they say write a letter to the person who had the gas issue and it goes nowhere. I reported a landlord and nothing happens.
Passed my theory, got my practical tomorrow got to say thanks for these videos. Along with the diagrams the explanations are the best on RU-vid. Thanks
Hi thanks for the vid. So during the ACS if you make a mistake at of the tests / assessments over the 5 days is it an instant fail ?? Or do you they multiple chances at correcting it
The room size of 30m3 is too small for 3.7kW flueless fire (3.7kW x 22.22 = 41.1m3) At Risk situation. But video is very helpful. Thank you. Love your channel.
EXCELLENT video!!! But what does the '45w/m3 of heated space' mean? It's beneath 'MAX HEAT INPUT NET' heading. I took that to mean you can't have a flueless fixed space heater which exceeds 45 watts of net heat input per m3 of the room but that can't be right. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi, thanks for commenting. It means that you’re only allowed to have 45 watts of heat for every metre cubed of space in the room…so if you were fitting a 4.5kw heater (4500w) it would be illegal to fit it in a room less than 10m3. It’s to stop you fitting a fire that’s too powerful for the room..I hope that helps 🙏😁
@@passyourgas Thank you for the reply! But 45watts x 10 = 450watts. So does that not mean an appliance over 450watt is illegal in a 10 M3 room. That is what's confusing me, sorry. Only 45 watts for every M3 seems extremely low to me. Sorry again, where am I going wrong here. 😂
Sorry..typo! Should read 100m3 room. A 10m3 would be approximately 2mx2mx2m so that’s tiny..you’ve got to remember that this was all put in place because landlords were putting standard 7kw in tiny student flats. As you know the poc’s from unventilated appliances go back into the room and there comes a point where the fire is so big and the room so small that it will overcome any reasonable amount of ventilation..that point is 45w per m3. I hope that clears things up…if not let me know…however don’t get too hung up on it, you won’t get tested on it!😁 Just remember it if you have to fit a fire!
@@passyourgas Ah I see. I think I also was overestimating the size of a 10m3 room as well. Thank you so much for your help mate. This is the best gas RU-vid channel I've found by a mile 😁😁 Cheers again!!!
Excellent video! But do we get a copy of the regulations in the exam or are we just meant to find this in viper books? The regualations section in my viper book does not answer your practise question..
