I'm wondering if it is compulsory to be Oftec registered yet to install/service oil boilers? All the answers I've found to this question date back a few years so i'm wondering if things have changed in recent years.
I'm just in the process of paying £1000's out on another course at the moment so can't afford to do Oftec right now. We install many oil boilers a year then get an Oftec registered engineer in to commission and sign it off.
I own the up to date Oftec books, always watch the registered engineer closely and know lots about commissioning/servicing already from many years of experience. So i'm thinking of buying a FGA to set boilers up then getting him to check and sign it off up until I get Oftec registered. I'd also like to start servicing some boilers myself, and from what I've read that is legal for me to do right now........unless the rules have changed?
