Thanks mate, that was the aim for This video, I just knew it wouldn’t do well with my regulars as it’s a bit boring, back to Normality Thursday mate 🙏🏽
The thing I respect about you and your content is passing on knowledge to apprentices and others who may want to become Qualified 💯 gas engineers. When I first started it was potterton neataheat vokera 20/80 .ariston euro combi. chaffoteaux.sauniers .lynx 1 and 2 potterton puma .envoy surprima. And I remember correctly envoy was one of the first condense boilers available in early 90s. I'm probably wrong but who gives a.....thought
Thank you mate. The whole point of these videos is to help people out with tips or advice and pass on what knowledge I have, because I don’t do all perfect pipes etc. so would never win that competition 😂😂 the lynx though 🤢😂
I’ve always said it there’s one thing u must ALWAYS do on a GAS SAFETY check is a tightness test🙄I’ve never understood why they say u dont have to🤷♂️ I personally have never given a certificate without doing one as its my name on it🤷♂️ imagine if gas board get called a month after YOUVE done a gas safety and find a leak you’d look a right c&nt 😂😂 great vid as usual mate👌
@@Heatking I know what would the landlord who paid u and the Tennant who thinks your there to keep them safe say if they had a gas leak after a check🤯🤯 merry new year to u and yours anyway bud hope it’s a goodun🤞
You're doing a gas safety check, I would say checking the gas pipework for leaks or if the ecv is letting by to be quite important lol, it's strange it's not required.
Very nice and detailed video. Loving the mix up of videos. Also my man rocking that cool hoodie I see you!! 😮 Thank you again for your hard work and here is me wishing you and your family a very happy new year ahead
As Part of the landlords Act, basically you must check the integrity of the gas line. Service is where you dont have to supposedly. But if your carrying out 'work' by checking the WP at the meter by undoing the test nipple point, then you need to do a TT, as LDF is crap when its detcting a 0.3 mbar drop on pipework which we all know isnt allowed. Too many grey areas which really annoys me, as if theres a gas leak, your going to be making good money finding it, so i dont understand why people dont do TT all the time as i do it and charge big money if there is one.
I thought they knocked doing tt as requirement for landlord tickets couple years back , but agreed tt is belt n braces no point in ever skipping for the 5 mins that it takes peace of mind
My gas inspector told me on a visit to never tightness test on a service unless your asked to specifically, he said if you find a leak outside of the tolerance and need to cap off supply, you can be made by gassafe to perform the remedial work at your expense if you were not asked to check for leaks. Could be a sticky one if you turned off supply to a vulnerable person who had no means to pay for the necessary work
I live in the ground floor flat that has a gas boiler,there are 4floors above me,how can you test boiler flue that is in a concrete sharft up to the roof with no access,what would you do? Great channel to watch.
It is 20.9 orrrrr, whatever your analyser shows in fresh outside air. So my analyser in clean air always shows 20.6% so if this was the change when inserted in the flue air sampling point, I’d know there was an issue. Hope that helps frank
@@garethjones4048 arrr fair enough. When I’m sweeping a kebab heat exhanger, let’s say on a Worcester. I just run my probe around whilst monitoring the co and o2 etc.
@@Heatking a few lads I work with do that, but in the MIs there's actually no need to adjust, unless your ratio is above 0.004 , you've confirmed the integrity of the flue and the gas rate is correct. Unless you've carried out a burner clean or changed a component that affects the combustion circuit. That's how I read it anyway.
Non compliant PRV pipework there mate, those mactun's have it printed on them not for PRV use as they melt if PRV goes full retard on them. Happy new year
Didn’t know that Paul! Thank you! I normally use hotuns so I’m not sure why I’ve used this version here, unless it was already on. Cant remember now. Happy new year buddy!!
