Any of you guys got the GasChecker App ?

[Mickyplumb]

Anyone gents ??

 

[spanner]

Nope.. wish I had.. maybe one day.. and if you Google gas checker app it gives you all sorts.. appliances App and Gross net rate conversion. And whole house boiler sizing ... try typing it in surly won't be disappointed

 

[Alex Knight]

Just make sure you double check the calculations when you use it, my old plumbing tutor at a college tried a few of them and said they have wrong readings a lot of the time

 

[spanner]

Ok are you a gas safe engineer now
Well you're probably right.. but surly it couldn't be that far off.
Well it'll be the only thing I can suggest

Looks good Spanner, may give that a go. Have you seen the Amtech version ?

I think you have the wrong app Spanner,


Gas checker does not do whole house boiler sizing or appliance App ??

What it does tho is get rid of loads of paperwork and saves trips to letting agents ect. Gas rate as well.

What stops these companies using your data to get your customers details? And get work from them ( like how would you like a new boiler or your boiler is due for a service)

I have just gone "pro" with gas checker.


They do loads of stuff, removes nearly all paper work and the email me a reminder 10 months later to say it is about to expire and if you load up the customers email it we contact them as well to say time for a service!!
Has a gas rate app as well that works great, as well I do do the maths ever now and the to check!!
They have just brought an invoicing part too which i'm working out if it will help me! probably will with some of the breakdowns!

still getting used to it but I will be renewing when the time comes!!

 

[Kev the gas]

Be aware they charge to contact the customer by email, can't remember how much.

The invoicing email works great.

How much do you guys pay, it's a monthly subscription isn't it ?

 

[Kev the gas]

Gas checker Pro is around £20/25 a year, the price rose slightly after I joined in July.

 

[gasmanrob]

Purchased 2 days ago with the vat just under £30. I like it landlords is a doddle bit of getting used to burin the swing of it now. Agents response so far is positive everything is legible for a change. I do like the service check list on it as customer gets something to go on and it all looks a little bit more professional. Everything is moving that way now.

Gas checker is ace. Been using it over a year now and starting to get annual reminders coming through now. Really organised now which takes some doing

 

[Kev the gas]

Do they charge you for the reminders ?

 

[Riley]

Hmmm not sure. I'll have to check that !!!

 

[spanner]

you don't need Any Apps.. all you need to do is work out the net from gross minus 7 and multiply by 5.
Er.. well that's if we're talking about the same thing..

 

[spanner]

And if I didn't then that's the answer and hope you'll help me out with fluing techniques...

 

[Riley]

Spanner. Think we're talkin at crossed purposes mate. I think the gas checker we're talking about is one that does all your gas certs electrically

 

[spanner]

OmgG.. I'm miles away... okay is this the one that works out required ventilation for multiple appliances... anyway sorry to interrupt I'll need to read previous pages... and it's a good night from me..

 

[Riley]

:big grin:

 

[Mickyplumb]

Sounds like an ace app. Anyone got the amtech ?

 

[spanner]

Nope. How's the amtech and where on earth would you get it done.. is this a gas safe module mick.. or haven't I got that far enough yet..!!

 

[Mickyplumb]

I get e mails from them every so often, must have the GSR database or something.
Been around for years, the software is a couple of hundred quid I think. A guy work with years ago had it, was great to see in action.

Does gas checker have a drop down menu ? I.e, put in Potterton and the models drop down from there, Profile, Suprima and even Flamingo !!

 

[Riley]

Yes most makes and models are on there

 

[spanner]

Well I'm just going over the gas range calculator and heat input rates..
But for a few bottles that's a bit extortionate mate.. Flipping flip
