    Tightness testing on gas installations

    Haven't read everyone's replies but I'll stick my 2p in anyway. New installation you shouldn't have any drop on pipework. If I was to be doing a service for instance on an existing installation and I've got a 2mb drop on say an e6 meter before and after service then it's simply noted on the...

    Worcester 280 rsf Luke warm water

    Worcester 280 rsf Luke warm water

    Old school 1/2 inch pipe

    Usually just file out the inner edge of the nut and a good brass olive will fit over the pipe

    Bonding present and before and tees, but not within 600mm from meter.

    No bonding at all is just NCS right? So just note it and advise

    Price to fit heating system from scratch.

    Plumb centre charged me £28 for a vaillant pressure sensor about 5 years ago. Never stepped foot in another plumb centre since!

    Optimistic Shaun... Either boiler off the wall, which is easier or take vitrutally every internal component out to get access. :eek::eek: terrible design.

    Draining down with this type off drain off.

    Don't have a wet vac. Never will. Another thing taking up unnecessary space in van.
