[bennygas]

Ah I see. Looks ace though.

 

[missplumb]

it took an hour for the boiler to heat the 15000 litre buffer. Rural Energy handed it over today and cleared out so will get some better pics tomorrow

 

[bennygas]

That's quick! Class.

 

[aligorgon]

nice bit of asbestos ... apparently its ok as long as you don't scratch it.... funnily enough the health and safety bigwigs never seem to come down here....

 

[aligorgon]

i know lol have to walk all over it at the back to do a fga...

 

[Dotty]

Refuse to do it

Your life isn't worth a cheap boiler

I agree, every time you step on it you're disturbing it and putting yourself at the risk of exposure.

 

[aligorgon]

i agree too but at the time I was working for Norland honestly the worst company i have ever worked for and didn't have much choice in the matter.

after i refused to do a 18 hr day after a 14hr day with a 6 hr rest between whilst on call too (none of this work was a call out) i was summoned down to luton for a meeting and mutually walked. even though their working policy states that engineers working on a mobile basis MUST NOT work and drive more than 12 hrs day.

I pointed this out and was told it was advisory... when i started laughing and said so your claiming MUST NOT is advisory i was asked to leave... haha

 

[aligorgon]

oh and just to add these boilers were in a school in bridlington i had 8 different schools there and about 40 boilers between them the majority of which were those MHS Strata 1's all giving out around 18k ppm of CO when i arrived, how those things ever got through testing i will never know...

you can spend hrs getting them burning correctly on both burners throughout the range, them come back a week later stick your fga probe in and they are way out of scope again.

I was on my own and had 3 wks to do them all including any remedials on boilers, pressurisation units etc....

A bit of welding today. 1 man point if you can guess the pipe size from the number of bolt holes

You can get flanges in various configurations or as blanks to drill as you like

 

[on31ll]
