[GQuigley67]

you mean CPA1 ?? yeah, everyone has, you havent got long left to get it

 

[evogt]

Yep CPA1, got it in January. Is it a days course?

 

[GQuigley67]

its nothing to worry about no chance of failure and its pretty simple to understand, you can get charts which help you better understand the readings for deciding when a boiler needs serviced or if something is wrong

an article on this in this months Gas Installer reckons abour 25% are still to do it, you have until 01-04-12 to have it (unless your CEN1 and/or HTR1 expires before then, meaning these tickets will be suspended till you have CPA1, you will still be able to do cookers but in the end its best to get it done and keep the other tickets, DONT phone a centre the week before it trying to get done,

Ive still to do mine, but my domestic tickets are up in Jan so Ill be doing it then. Ive been using a FGA for years when I was doing commercial work.Interesting to note that I now have to do CENWAT as an initial assessment as well. Its all money money money!! and no thats not the ABBA version!
