just had chaffoteaux maury combi-boiler fitted up in spare bedroom on existing pipework. radiators are only warm when boiler on 'max'.friend of friend whos corgi gas reg. said they are cowboys who have done job and feels sorry for me.
plastic small pipes lead out from top of boiler when should be copper. he said also too small a pipe to distribute hot water round house. said rads wil never get hot. also flue not sealed on top of boiler.
also terrible condensation on pipework from boiler, goes under floorboards where again plastic pipework is and runs down thru ceiling to kitchen below where it collects behind sink units. had the boiler fitter back and insists not a leak-says condensation.
have challenged boiler fitter re other faults and he said he would be back when new back panel arrives for gas fire from manufacturer but has refused to fit bigger bore copper pipes on boiler as reckons plastic legal.
also new gas fire he fitted has been condemned by my mate. back panel has cracked and again got terrible condensation in dining room. black mould on walls. mate says new gasfire not sealed at all, hence marble getting hot+cracked. told me not to use it. old pipes are not sealed and blow fumes into lounge.
to cap it all boiler fitter never signed the benchmark and left me high and dry. i am gutted. could i get corgi inspectors in to inspect this work-how do i go about it?
am worried.
