Gas cooker with no openable window/door to outside

[stratplus]

How do engineers deal with these when the roon is over 10m cubed but a conservatory has been built on the back of the kitchen so there is now no openable window to outside? No where to vent to either.

there is a technical bulletin about this im sure someone will be along with the number

At risked 2 this year. Usually more money/hassle than worth to look at additional ventilation etc.
Just advised on fitting electric cooker instead.

I came across this loads doing letting agency work.

I can't remember 100% but you have to have trickle vents and a gap under the door of a certain size and I think an extractor.

But most of them I AR and put electric in.

It was NCS in the old TB005.

Ncs, the conservatory is considered to have enough ventilation to surface the openable window. I at risked one and went back to change it after a lengthy search to find the answer.

A lot of the ones I came across were kitchens in the middle of the flat so no window what so ever and not just because of a conservatory being built.

I should really read the posts properly and not just scan through them. Lol

quote them for a solenoid on the gas pipe connected to an extractor fan with a pressure proving switch, tell em that'll make it legal and future proofed for any amendments to the gas regs

then quote them for an electric hob, i know which one they take

That tb must be the most unclear one ever. I called gas safe and got 2 different answers

i had one a month ago,AR then the landlord fitted an extractor and planed the bottom of the door off.

I seem to remember a long threadon this a few years back

without logging in to GSR I see the TB005 is here:

And there is a picture near the end with notes about exactly this situation - internal kitchen with conservatory.

ive read it a few times and i always at risk them but it makes absolutley no sense actually a bit like phoning gas safe

 

[Eric withy]

well most gas safe guys read an quote the regs as they required to do so cover there asses but regs are regs they there for the saftey of our costomers
