ID condensate pipe??

[SimonJohns]

LOL!! Yes please Simon.

Can we put this to bed now?

 

[AlexGas]

Can I point, tamz, that we should stick to MI first. If there are no specific instructions in the MI – stick to the BS.

 

[tamz]

Half the problem is no one uses any common sense anymore. Believe it or not, we are still allowed to use "engineering judgement"

CDI Classic
Here we have to ensure that the condensate drain pipe is connected “down stream” of the waste trap.

Or just make a 75mm trap under boiler. Most installers would.

 

[AlexGas]

Defo!

why would you cut someone off over a condensate pipe ??
The time it would take to cut off appliance and explain to the cust would surely be the same amount of time to correct a little bit of plastic would only take 5 mins lol

 

[kirkgas]

That's where I've seen it & I think it's ID.

Why don't you send someone who is time served to look at it, and get their expert opinion haha

 

[kirkgas]

I think it's ID as the integral trap could have no water in it.

By saying "could" you have answered your own question, you want to book in for some update training?

 

[kirkgas]

It would be interesting to hear Gas Safe's take on it.

Ask them, then come back on and apologise to your uncle tamz

 

[kirkgas]

Dickie, why don't you get on of the short course cowboys to put the kettle down and help you do the jobs, ID?????? You having a laugh? This is what I put up with on a daily basis with time served experts in for re-assessment

To my uncertain knowledge mate: it's only BG that cut anyone off.

 

[hammers4spanner]

Bg will do whatever they want imho right or wrong

 

[Mickplumb]

Yes please its all :nono: anyway

 

[Dotty]

In an ID situation you are supposed to isolate and make safe the appliance with the owner or occupier's permission.

If that permission isn't given then the carrier must be informed so that they can take the necessary action.

Oh well look on the bright side then Kirky: at least their course fees are coming out of their own pocket & not the British Tax payers.

Apologise??!! What's that???

Now you are joking, Cat 2 AND Cat 3 courses are funded through the Dept of Works & Pensions ( the broo to me and you) can't get the courses booked quickly enough there simply aren't enough spaces for all the people wanting on the course, any chance you could take 5-6 to build their portfolio's

Doya think any of them can make tea??

Once in the trap its liquid not gas

Still a product of combustion though. GSIUR refer to products of combustion. But it's not really the point, think we all know u wont die from water vapour inhalation ( acute not accumulated) but to ID appliance because a perfectly safe installation discharges into wash trap??? OTT. Some installers run 21.5 outside and put 21.5 elbow into open end of 32mm instead of using 32mm elbow and socket reducer. If the open end is within 300mm of air vent or window ........... After all the condensate pipe is a means of discharging the products of combustion to atmosphere? (Flue) What if its bossed in to a SVP which terminates less than 1.5m below velux?

 

[SimonJohns]

I give up

After what emitrude has just said I'm starting to wonder if the heat from the rads should be put to atmosphere as that is a product of combustion

FFS!

I can't read this thread anymore

Eh, Tetley.

I'm being scarcastic as per my post earlier. If u called transco out because custard refused to allow you to disconnect u would probably get laughed at.

..:disappointed:..this has all got a tad heated!..:rolleyes2:..
But just to backtrack, what is a condense pipe..:ihih:

 

[Rickster123]

Yes!!! A technical knockout!!

That did make me chuckle!

 

[SimonG]

Just a shame all this is on the public forum.
