Hi guys
Im busy putting together my portfolio to gain ACS entry, and would like to run this situation by you experienced engineers
We recently serviced a Gas fire (valor madiera GC 32 810 67), this appliance has been working for 30+- years, it is serviced yearly.
we are not able to get the operating pressure above 15mbar but the badge states it needs 17.1 mbar (+- 1mbar)
now according to the gas books , this is not allowable because it is outside the limits.
the appliance seems to be working fine, flue flow test was a pass, spillage test was a pass and flame picture is good, but with this model it has a decorative burner designed to give a yellow flame also.
there is a CO detector in the room also.
the Gas engineer i am working with is happy that this appliance is working fine ( better than operating pressure being to high)
If i use this in my portfolio would i have to have remedy the operating pressure problem ?
Standing pressure is 23 mbar ( yes i know it means nothing)
cheers guys
