Min Van Stock

[jaydebruyne]

We had a a gas Inspection at the firm once and I was given a minimum van stock list which I've lost..

Had stuff like 2 port valves etc

Anyone heard of this and has a copy?

I have my 1st Inspection on Friday :/

Yeah.. oh ok cool.. 1 less thing to worry about

i'm sure the list was a company stock list to keep you stocked for most eventualities really.

Dunno.. boss only came out with it when he gave us a load of other gas stuff when he was being audited after a complaint. Maybe it is. Who knows. Cheers Steve

Things like

Temp bonding clips
Smoke pellets/ matches
Bubble spray
Closure tape spray

All the stuff you need to carry out basic gas work.

I've got my Oftec coming soon so I'm thinking he's going to pull me up on something, I've just had to buy a fire valve tester as I used a heat gun because that's what my last inspector told me to use but now he has changed.

Need to get some closure plate tape.. everything else you mentioned I have.

I have to say I'm not looking forward to the visit

I would not stress to much the inspection is not about what you have (labels, & tape aside) its about you (the individual) knowing how to be safe and having the correct knowledge and safe procedures carrying out gas work

That's the part that worries me lol I suffer really bad with anxiety and my brain goes blank and I end up with a mouth which refuses to engage with my brain and just talks a load of pooh!!

If you need correction in any area he will tell you its not **** or bust. if you know your stuff you will be ok

I've read others say don't be afraid to consult your books for an answer you don't know, he won't mark you down for doing it.

So had a telephone call from the inspector today.. asked what we were doing on Friday.. said I'll try take him to my last boiler install. He then asked me a load of gas questions over the phone - couldn't remember 2 questions so said to revise and answer them on Friday.

Is that normal for that part to be done over the phone??

Or you reckon he'll ask a load more on Friday?

Sounds like he wants to get sorted quickly on Friday. Lol.
