    What i do now is. For me to do a cp12 now the property must have only a boiler thats all one appliance only, no fires no cookers no wall heaters. And the landlord pays for a service on the boiler aswell. And i charge i think a very reasonable 95 quid

    When carrying out a flue flow test I always have a cup of water with me, if for some reason the smoke pellet starts to come back into the room I can extinguish the pellet and reduce the amount of smoke in the room.

    Thank you Tom for another good video, however, I am Jerry and I do not totally agree with you on the FSD issue on a cooker. I am aware fo what it stated in TB0015, however on the list of where it applies it mention "multi-tenancy" and "multi-owner occupancy". As a gas engineer I insist on all cookers/hobs having FSD as standard regardless of age of appliance or date of installation. My reasoning for this is, i don't know what the landlord might decide to do with their tenancy strategy, the landlord/landlady/agent may decide to rent per room as this brings in more rental income for them and reduce the cost for those using/sharing the facilities. That is multi-tenancy so, hey, does this then trigger the new standard? So I think it is prudent to stick to a simple rule that instill safety and safe practices, as you cannot predict the action of others. In this case I think FSD as standard regardless.

    Hi, Derek, thank you very much for making this video, really informative, just want to be clear on dates, if the previous certificate expires in one month time do you add that one month on new certificate and make it 13 months valid time?
    Second question, I work for council, council only provide boiler, tenants buy there own cookers or fire, what happens in this case, do
    we have to check cookers and fires like you did or just visual inspection, may I know where I can find this information.

      Like I say in the video you have 2 months grace so the report can be 2 months early and still keep the same expiry dates and if the cooker and fire are the tenants you will still need to visually inspect the tenants appliances you can find the information in appendix 5 of igem/g/11

    I thought the same as you, but you can actually do a report without having cookers,fires etc. You just can't carry out any repairs or rectify problems.

    • @tomkatgastraining
      @tomkatgastraining  Год назад

      You can’t carry out a landlords report on appliances you are not competent to work on. It’s not that you can’t repair them it’s you are not qualified to work/ test safe operation of them. So the landlords report would be void if you worked on the appliances not qualified for. You could also be breaking the regulations.

      So looks like every service will put back the current certificate 3 months each year so you can never rely on setting a time of year for it to be done. After two years you are back with a winter service.

      Nice video.
      Haven't used paper CP12 for at least 10+ years.
      Normally copies are unreadable after 2 years.
      Also as you have shown that your faults etc look messy and it's always a case of scribbling additional notes which you are limited to do due to space on certificate.
      I use digital software by gas engineers software. Far superior and professional than the cheap paper version.
      You get quality technical support.
      Certificates/invoices/ estimates are always updated as and when required.
      Best thing is customer gets minimum 14 notice of certificate due. Plus if carried out within 2 month period the certificate gets automatically adjusted 👌
      Each to there own but certificate gets emailed as soon as your ready with attached invoice.
      OK that aside.
      Derek you try and run a vaillant /Worcester Bosch for minimum of 15 mins on your analyser just not gonna happen in my experience.
      I agree with other comments about £30 charges. It's for the engineer to explain to the Landlord that what he's going to get and especially if any faults are there will be notified and not ignored by those on the in/out style services.
      Great to see you taking new fellas along with you so they learn on site experience but I presume that's at there cost 😉😂

    To any would be gas engineers watching this, blowing out the flame to test the safety device of an appliance is not the correct way to carry out this test. You should be turning off the appliance and waiting for the audible click within the specified time frame. This eliminates an unknown volume of gas entering the room which could be an unknown size and an unventilated space.

    • @tomkatgastraining

      Of course you are, it doesn’t matter how the flame is extinguished, the safety device should still isolate the gas supply once the flame has gone. The difference is, if you turn off the control knob to the appliance you aren’t letting unburnt gas flow out hoping the device will activate in the correct time frame. Once the gas valve has closed/you’ve heard the click you can turn the control knob back on and no gas should be coming out of the injector. I’m struggling to see how you can’t understand this, it’s a basic test.
