Non British Gas advice please re Boiler Pressure Relief Pipe

[Blooflame]

Nickso - BG term internal termination of PRVs AR. No-one else does, certainly not in industry unsafe sits and not in gsiur.

Here's the deal pablo, the prv is a safety device full stop. I've ID'd a chb because it wouldn't blow the pressure out, which was the correct thing to do. You must remember it's a safety device, play safe!!

Yep that well trained they dont know the difference between water regs and gas regs .
Suggest you actually read the books and dont go by what you are told in team briefs

 

[DeltaT2]

Ask BG to point out the bit in the GSIUR that talks about PRV terminations. You can't use the Unsafe Situation Procedure for Building Regulation or Water Regulation infringements regardless of how dangerous someone thinks it is/isn't.
I wonder what a BG engineer would do to an unvented with capped tprv? maybe slap an ID sticker on it? cap the water supply

What exactly would you know? you're a fool, you've just proved it with a childish statement right there. Funny how you seem to quote the regs but conveniently forget it's a safety device...you do know that don't you?
You can't just go round carte blanc making wild statements against the best trained engineers in the country.

Get a grip son, best trained engineers in the country???! Fecking best parts changers in the country, that spend their days with their probe up some old dear flue!! You are having a laff mate??

Just because one is highly trained doesn't necessarily mean one is any good

Man Utd proved that today

Think you'll find that your wrong on that as well.

A chb that won't blow water out the prv is the same as a chb with effectively no PRV(on a sealed system of course)......unsafe sits is AT RISK

Unfortunately for the decent folk like nickso,petit etc it's BG muppets like this one wrongly turning things off that give you guys a bad name at BG.

Maybe the best trained engineer should go for more training.

Im assuming you dont know im BG too.

Safety device or not is irrelevant, ID, AR etc are for gas. PRVs are not part of the gas train. They can only be fitted not to MI's. Im fully aware what the powers at BG want us to do and i play the game as i have a mortgage to pay.


Your also seem blissfully unaware that mickyg was BG and a TSM. He probably knows more on the ways of BG than most here.

 

[cantaloup63]

So, briefly returning to simple English for the op who has probably decided to get someone in to do the work anyway, has anyone actually got any further advice for her other than sporadically stated?

 

[petit_pablo]

For the op - If your bothered by it, have it re-run in copper.

Interesting reading on a Monday morning, I didn't realise it would cause such a debate and even more confusion for me

.

And BG shares to look after Do you ever work after 4pm on a daily basis

 

[Nige F]

The engineer was covering for the clearly blind engineers that have visitedpreviously, this doesn't really matter one way or another to you, you should never actually have come on contract with that status. If you're not happy you should find an alternative company.

Is that official BG speak . I`ll remember that when a gasman comes on contract to my boiler - I`ll check his status , and his white stick

You know I had to think about your comment........
You BG CPS have such a razor sharp wit.
In fairness, there's good & bad guys everywhere, and a large company like BG is going to promote only the good guys. So if you've been there 20 years & you're still sticking your probe up flues all day, you must be a bit of a thiicko............
