Excuse my ignorance, Local Building Control?

Oh yea sure but as you register the warranty with Glowworm, they register it with Gas Safe for you. Quite handy as it's all done via an app on my phone that scans the barcode on the boiler.

Thanks Rick. I was thinking that might be the case after Dan said he has both options on his gas safe page. What's all this warrant business though??

Thanks Dan / Rick. Situation is... I have G3 and all the relevant gas qualifications but I work for a company so don't have my own personal GS number so I'm not used to registering procedures etc.... My Dad however, runs his own plumbing/heating company but in all honesty he's an old school...

Who do I need to phone to sort it out? I've done this stuff for years but always worked for a large company so never had to worry about registrations before. Thanks.

I've heard something like this too, it's too late now though. Just trying to figure out whos hoops I need to jump through to sort it :roll:

Evening! I've recently installed an unvented cylinder but I'm not sure how to go about registering it. The boiler has already been registered via Glowworm when I did the warranty, no problems there. On the Gas Safe website there's only an option to register "vented" cylinders, which...

I never bother venting the pump anyways, just run the heating until it clears.

The warm air in the void can lead to condensation so it needs to breath.

Just tell her how much money you're saving 8)

Before you buy, take off the white case (not the combustion case) run the tap and get the boiler into it's fault condition then check that the pin isn't making the switch correctly. This way you can be 100% positive it's the diaphragm.

The bottom of the cylinder is concaved so if you mount it directly onto chipboard there will be a void. This area needs to breath or over time the wood can rot. Chipboard will be especially vulnerable.

Sounds to me like it only needs the diaphragm as it is part worn, I wouldn't bother touching the rest of the diverter valve. Not to do any of my colleagues out of a job but...

It's around 2 weeks old but I'm not going to get around to tiling it for 4-5 weeks yet. Thanks to both for the help.

Hi all! Hope you can help. I'm in the middle of replacing my bathroom and I've now got to the tiling stage which is the only part I'm new too. I have a mix of surfaces in the room and I'd like to be sure of exactly what I need to do with them before tiling. There's plasterboard, walls with...

Ex tsm, micky? Bet you've heard that before :wink:

Louvre doors are fine so long as the gaps are between 5 and 10mm wide and the total free air is at least the same as the total high/low vent requirements.

I wouldn't bother updating the vents personally, they're only for cooling purposes and not combustion.

The BG guy has been a bit keen here, defo not At Risk! Also, the spur issue shouldn't be on that letter because it's not a gas regulation.
