The plumber put a new clip around the flue & removed the remnant of the old clip & pin. I now realise the flue by itself is solid as a rock & can support itself without any clip, no movement whatsoever.

Still haven't heard back from plumber or his boss about replacing the clip to hold flue. What would be situation if there is no current Gas Safety Certificate ?? Thanks

Are we talking about the same thing ?? That seems a very expensive clip to hold the flue.

Is that all !! :) .

In recent years, couple of times plumbers have come in, ummd & aahd looking at the flue, phoned another plumber & put it through as NCS.

Only in last couple of years the flue has been put down to Not to Current Standards, it's been like that since 1995. The boiler is in the outbuilding to left of flue. In 1st picture the flue continues to left for about a foot before turning into this outbuilding. My backdoor is a foot...

I would have thought you have to issue Pass or Fail certificate, something, so it's all recorded, like MOT. I saw him checking the flue, heard him say it was solid, although circular clip has rusted & broken, but still solid where flue connects to remainder of clip on the flue. The same...

He said it was a Warning, is that the same as a Fail ??

Just had a Gas Safety Inspection on boiler on last day of current Gas Safety Certificate. Plumber didn't issue new gas safety certificate, is going to give Warning that flue fixing needs to be replaced, it's rusted & breaking up, but still solid with no movement, so I assume I don't have...

It's happened before & it's a common fault. What else do you suggest ??

Can you get access to the Venturi this way, from outside through exhaust outlet pipe ?? .
