Touché
I do not mate. It was auto correctBlimey , I didnt know you knew any French !
All I know about them is they make shi* cars
I hope he isn’t. There should be a policy on here that states, if you are found to be tinkering with gas appliance and you are not qualified this web forum will report you.Thats very interesting . I'll bear that in mind when he's posting on the sparks forum.
My guess is that he's tinkering with a boiler in one of his properties with tenants in
Scary stuff all round.
Then you should know better. Think that’s enough said.Just to set the record straight, yes I am a spark and part of a competent person scheme. I am also a landlord, Advanced PADI diver and swam 800 meters at school and have a badge to prove it!
What relevance this has is beyond me. Please keep this professional.
It was my own boiler, all my tenants boilers are serviced and have gas safety certificates issued yearly as required.
Back to the matter in hand, I will reply further over the weekend when I have more time.

who is going to stop him doing what he wants with it ?
I can see where the guy is coming from, but in all honesty who is going to report him ? His house his boiler we know the law, and he has done wrong, But how meny others do the same thing ? it will never stop as long as all the information that is required is easily available, parts for gas appliance's can be bought over the counter by anyone, the same as test equipment, you can even hire it! All the Merchants, DIY Stores , online shopping will all sell any Gas Appliance or spare part you need with no questions asked, So as long as this go's on DIY work on gas will not stop ! and people look at what they are spending and as long as they can save a £1. they will keep on doing it.
This go's back to my first reply ! Its in his house its his own personal property, who is going to stop him doing what he wants with it ? you can attach this argument to anything, take your car/van for example you tinker with the engine or whatever, something happens to you get prosecuted for NOT being competent because you haven't done a mechanics course, your reply I didn't know anyway its my car I can do what I want to it, I can buy the parts & tools so what's to stop me !!
You will never stop people tinkering around with there own goods its human nature, we have all done things at home etc. moved a switch/plug worked on the car, did we call in a sparks or a mechanic ? answer NO so maybe we are just as much to blame.
Not unless the suppliers sell to GSR’s only.JTS Plumbing, sad but so true mate. It will never stop no mater how much we bleat on about it.
I'm wondering what he will progress tio next? Tinkering with your own home is one thing, but rental properties he owns is another Matter.
Jump to the sparks forum and take a view at his threads on there...
WTF.
Bloke illegally messes with boiler.
Bloke brags about it.
Bloke gets shut down.
Bloke opens another thread asking for justification of closing of first thread.
FFS. Is the forum going to grow a pair and tell the Muppet to jog on.
It's quite simple.
He's not competent and It's therefore illegal.
