I am not Gas Safe. Therefore I don't touch boilers apart from topping up after drain downs. Hence I don't know whether I am allowed to do anything else. Doesn't tend to come up but oddly enough it just did. Twice. Excuse the lack of knowledge of what the bits are but as I said, it aint my area, so I'm guessing.
Two different jobs. Two different combis. Both Alphas.
First one is just a weep on a soldered joint. I'm thinking either cold in or cold/hot out. Questions:
1) Am I allowed to sort it?
2) If so, do I need to order the right bit? Because it looks like I could just do it with a bent tap con and some pipe.
Second one is...I think - not sure what the correct name is - the warning pipe? I'm guessing it's the one you run outside and then bend back towards the wall. Guy who installed it didn't finish job for some reason. Customer was warned by a friend about it.
So same questions:
1) Am I allowed to do it?
2) If I am, what should/shouldn't be done (rules/regs/minimum distances/whathaveyou)?
More than happy to leave both well alone if not a good idea / not allowed.
Thanks
