A quick google says they are ok. Surprised that's all.

Had plenty of ballofix-type valves leak with water let alone gas. I'd use a proper lever gas valve anyday.

the only iso valve on the gas line (closest the boiler eg left one) is not allowed but the test point is for working standing pressures (right/ lowest on the gas pipe)

 

[plumben]

Yeah ISO on the gas pipe above an isolatable test point, hopefully I'll be ripping it all out tomorrow and sticking a new boiler in anyway

I do work with a gas safe guy though for all of the gas work I do, Intact I basically do all of his gas work

A leak I was called to after a plumber repaired it 2 weeks ago

He had just resoldered the reducer without removing and cleaning etc and when he couldn't stop the drip he simply left a deep sandwich box underneath it (gatepost guarantee) which took 2 weels to fill and overflow through the ceiling again
Also in the next joist was this

Whilst draining down I managed to give his car a wash at the same time (ends of hoses jumping around due to air in system)

Cut out the 28mm tee and replaced, also got rid of the flexis and rigid piped it
Was only supposed to be a leak on a rad ffs

 

[Ch4 plumbing]

Bet he loved the inhibitor on the paint work!

Some people are just to lazy to do what they are paid for, did you keep the plastic tub lol

 

[jonnyswamp]

Yeah, it was a probly a M&S one, not your usual takeaway container

Some from the last couple of weeks

Also had a cylinder that had been connected to mains water pressure bypassing the tank in the loft.

Plus a flexicom with no condense connected that had been leaking for a good while under kitchen units
