Sorry, just clocked they had fitted a new boiler to a leaking carcass.

Is it existing pipework? or new installation?

existing with a new boiler

Leave it as is, no further action required. Unless you want to give the landlord some grief!

Surely the rule is new appliance, being the only appliance in the house no drop is allowed. Get them back.

i agree no drop permissible,if its a new boiler no drop allowed on carcass,and anyway if other appliances fitted once isolated there must be no drop

I/1b states that the drop must not increase on existing installation. It's existing and upon commencing the installation was compliant and therefore legal and acceptable to be the same way when they finished. But me personally I don't like any drop any of the time

Yes the installer should have repaired, but as you go in its no smell and 1mbar drop. Pass as it's now an existing installation.
