Were you Corgi registered when you fitted the last one?
If not, how did you decide that you were competent?

Non sequitur. Corgi registered does not equal competence. Corgi
registration just mean that you had paid your registration fee.

And have a certain minimum level of experience surely.

I doubt that GasSafe is much different.

Though what is certain is that if the installation blows the house to
tiny bits your insurance will not pay out if it was a DIY bodge job. A
house not far from here was spectacularly destroyed this way by a dodgy
DIY gas CH installation. The burnt out blackened shell stood by the
roadside as testament to this folly for years afterwards.


I smelt gas when I commissioned the last gas boiler I installed. It was
the night of the IRA bomb in Guildford so I was reminded by my radio of
the possible consequences.

I eventually found a leak on the new Ideal Standard wall mounted boiler
that I had bought.
