Early duo techs had inner metal flues. No excuse for that mess though.

 

[Ermintrude]

Looks like it's twin port to me ? Two turrets?

Honest! It was delivered, I queried it. All the part numbers were correct.

On the cracked turret photo it looked to me like the access pnl had been supplemented with a secondary air supply, like some one had used a twin flue off an old alpha?

Why o why with a nice finish would somebody do that. They want stringing up by the nads.

 

[Ch4 plumbing]

Must be DIY, what customer would except that tosh!!

 

[Ermintrude]

Poke a needle into the hose and leave

 

[Rich8]

That's what I was thinking outstanding work

 

[townfanjon]

well what can you say !!!!!!!!!!!

I suppose it could be worse, the hoses could come out of the ceiling.

 

[bright spark]

That's a beautiful piece of work. Hope that lad wasn't involve in any gas work in the house.
i like the idea with the pin though hehe!

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

Some overpaid cretin. Cant stand them. Normally full of gravel water soil or all of the above.

That's the wrong regulator me thinks

 

[Ermintrude]

Or if it's a block of flats steal one out of a meter your not working on and call it in as an escape

Almost exactly 1 year ago I reported this to the supplier while doing a LSC at a nearby property. Since then the tenant of the nearby property has also reported it to the supplier as well as the owner of the nearby property.

Yet still, it remains. No doubt being repeatedly driven over ever day. It is by the entrance to a car port below a coach house.

 

[IND_Nick]

Saw this on a landlords check, it is still not the worse I've seen, ha.

 

[Whyme]

@ LPC The gas supplier wont move it. the cust will have to get a box on the wall and pay to connect...I'll bet good money on that..I know suppliers are daft but that must have been on a grass part originally and tarmacked over. doubt they ever fit sunken boxes on drives..

Nope, there from new. Houses are only ~15 years old. The ECV lever has been bent and is crushing the anaconda. Everything is rusted to buggery.
Meter is in the direct path of the [tight] entrance to a car port space.

Maybe plans were changed as that would never have been signed off! Best bet would be to see if Transporter will move it to a wall box - still a risk of it getting ****ted though!
