Pipe and pump sizing

[Pawel Halarczyk]

Almost everyone on here would have been paid duck all for donkey work in order to get their qualifications, it's called an apprenticeship. It's no excuse to break the law.

How many years of apprenticeships there is 25 in total ?

Pawel, just trust the engineers on here mate. Follow the rules and get more knowledge and you will see things becoming much easier. The majority of people on here are highly trained and have huge background of plumbing. The engineers did not just spent their hard earned money for endless trainings but also for the knowledge to become a great engineer. A lot of people on here have over 20-40 years experience. I would say stick around here and try to pick other brains knowledge. If you feel ready then please be my guest and go ahead but you may end up having an installation issue and that could cost you money to fix that and not only that but perhaps a customer or more.

People on here will be more concerned than upset. We've seen bad gas work and we know the consequences of it. I'm not saying your gas work is bad or dangerous but you don't hold the qualification so it's irrelevant. If you really want to go self employed then speak to your local assessment centre about what you require to get your acs. Building a portfolio of gas work shouldn't be too difficult. There's always someone who will be willing to help and if it mean getting paid peanuts, if it gets you qualified then it's worth it.

But how do you want to install a system but not being able to design it? That’s the most important when going self employed. You will need to know what to suggest your customers the right system and make that work otherwise you won’t be long in the game. It is a really hard to be self employed it is not everyone’s thing to be fair.

You don't need level 3, it helps but it's not needed, I haven't got level 3😳

 

[BYP]

I was under the impression that you did, have things suddenly changed or does it vary from course to course? We didn’t really cover anything gas related until level 3
