Had a unbelievable phone call with gas safe today over a illegal boiler went on for about 15 mins which is short version below.
Firstly pass my details gsr number ,name ,where i live etc .
GSR- so what is it i can do for you today
ME- basically putting some radiators in a house gone to the loft space to refill boiler and notice the install was pretty poor , had asked customer for MI's and they have none nor any record of a gas cert . They have only been living here for a couple weeks so we are curious about the boiler .
GSR- is this your house?
ME - no its customers house i have done a couple new rads here
GSR- so you want to register the radiators?
ME- huh? No is the boiler a legal boiler ( i pass customers full details)
GSR- Is this your address?
ME - no its customers , can you check if they have a veissman boiler installed on your data base?
GSR - have you put this in?
ME- NO I'm doing radiators is the boiler legal???
GSR- Whose put this boiler in ,,,,yourself?
ME- NO i have phoned up to check if this boiler has been installed by a GSR engineer and signed off!!!
GSR - When was this boiler put in?
ME- how do i know thats what I'm trying to find out!
THIS GOES ON LIKE THIS FOR ANOTHER 10 MINS OR SO
Eventually we get to the point where she is confused because she has no data of it being signed off,
GSR - are you commissioning the boiler now after your install ?
ME - i never installed it
GSR - but you need to sign your rads off
ME - forget the rads
GSR - who is signing boiler off
ME - im will do measures to keep it safe , meanwhile as I'm not commissioning it what happens as its been installed illegally over this time scale ?
GSR - nothing will happen
Ended up filling out paperwork switching it off , back to customer now
