Registered gas fitter near spalding

Not shocked at that Baysearcher, just shocked that others have advised people to do it themselves.

This conversation ends here

 

Fair enough just came across a bit hard .

I hear what your saying and yes it's easy for us who can do the manual trades to say do it.

 

To me its like telling someone to do their own brakes, good it they get them right but not fun if they don't work 100℅ . anyone taking advice from a stranger should always use their own judgement/common sense.

 

^^^ this.
Its a half hour job, and thats taking your time and rechecking your connections. Leak test it with detector fluid after installation and if theres no bubbles jobs a good'un!

 

In this age of insurance, blame and claim, libel etc etc... blah blah blah

It's just got to be done right, by experts.

That's all I'm trying to put across.

 

So getting back on track ......

 

Do it.

 

can I have that in writing please.

 

Christ, what a can of worms!!!

If only it was that simple, lol

What about air vents, cabinet casings, co alarms etc

 

The actual pipework IS that simple. The rest has nothing to do with the gas part and a trained monkey could address it, hence my not including it lol

 

its what you don't know that makes it dangerous,I would never recommend someone doing something with gas if they are not qualified,it can be lethal and is also breaking the law ,the law that is there to protect you.

 

I'll bear that in mind next time I change the bottle on the gas barbecue *rolls eyes*

 

that's taking the *******

 

Not really.....exactly the same bottle, and pretty much identical connection. Lol

 

Believe me Luis, it isn't that simple.

Rigid pipe and some types of hose are excepted, but each has a minimum and maximum length, and diameter also is critical depending on the length.
Compression firing can only be used in areas that you can access readily.
Solder joints should be hard soldered.
Jubilee clips are Not Allowed, and neither is rubber hose!!
