[stevetheplumber]

Last one i had like that turned into a 12month legal battle as the council had actually signed of the extension 6 months earlier

The boiler owner. You cannot terminate a flue within 600mm of a boundary

Those pics are off different boilers I think.

That's correct. Approximately 25 miles apart! Lol!

aparantly the boiler has been like it for 4 years and it was all working ok, got southern gas out to replace guvoner as wp at meter was low, i put boiler down as ar, after southern gas had been just for the teermination, i looked into getting a plume kit which ideal aparantly make but was told it is obselite, dont think the customer will do anything about it but at least i have covered myself

No plastic within 1 metre of boiler......yeah right more like no copper anywhere near boiler

A diy boiler decommissioning....

Yep that's the old balanced flue blocked with cardboard held on with filler. And a circle of card in the centre. Gas pipe is also seen isolated only with isolated valve. This was in a takeaway.

Mmm nice clean kitchen taps.....

Dirty eh? Guess what... Same takeaway.....
Would you like something to eat? No bloody chance i.ve just reinstated hot water supply to the kitchen after 4 weeks. They only rang me after a health inspection.

I'm guesing the suply cable is plugged into a socket below and there isn't any part 'L' observed ... TRV's, room stat programmer that sort of thing 🙂

I hope you've learned something since your 'training' days REDSAW? :lol:

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

i recon on the main its prv into the conden pipe,cant see the valiant picture fully though

 

[REDSAW]

forget the vailant pic, dont know how it got there.
there are no room stat, the lead is un-fixed and the condense paired to the prv goes 6meters to outside drain pipe with a 22mm speedfit on, straight through a little girls bedroom!.

 

[REDSAW]

put this up before, tenant calls for l.l. cert and found as is....

also, cooker point in middle of room un-supported for 2 meters.

this one of the meter cupboard is in a warden aided complex disabled bungalow.. there all the same council stuff.



this is one her dad did 15 years ago and didnt finish it, she says he was corgi.
and this is previous boiler.
