I called corgi to find out what the situation would be regarding
fitting a non sedbuk compliant boiler which was bought befor April
1st.I told him a corgi reg plumber would be fitting it. He assumed I
was a diyer and told me, basical, that he had no information for me
and that I had to contact the government.

Where do diyers or corgi reg plumbers stand if the boiler was bought
before April 1st but installed after that date?

The law makes no provision for that, as far as I can find.

Basically, your choices would be to find a CORGI willing to take on
the situation, or to install yourself and then go to the local
authority and get it all normalised.

There could be other variants, but since the whole area is muddled
with politics and crap, you won't find a definitive answer that is
consistent across fitters and geography.

Basically your fitter threw up his hands in despair as well. A
Marquis of Queensbury option with Prescott is going to be as accurate
an answer as anything else I'm afraid.

You can attempt to find a clear legal path and will almost certainly
fail, or you can find a pragmatic solution that will get you the right
bits of paper if that's your objective.

The best solution is to figure out what your end goal is and then
press the right buttons to achieve it.

Sorry to be cynical, but that's about the situation......

We should write a note to John Prescott, accusing him of posing as a
somdomite ?

I was thinking for in terms of pugilism.

I wasn't aware of the other proclivities of the Marquis of Queensbury.

Perhaps I was thinking of the one from Sade instead.....

Isn't it, though? ;-) Perhaps we have a Part-P Revengeseeker on the
staff at Google; but more likely it's because of the popularity or
otherwise high-ranking of the blog at thecep.org.uk, which links to that
page on many of its page under the epithet in question.

Google's "reverse search", in this case asking it for
"link:http://www.number-10.gov.uk/output/Page1376.asp", can help in
illuminating what I think is still one of the main inputs to Google's
page-ranking algorithm...

Where do diyers or corgi reg plumbers stand if the boiler was bought

They need to either manage to comply with one of the get outs from using a
condensing boiler or tell lies about the actual date of installation

Ok and thanks for the reply Andy H.
I have spoken to someone else and ,according to them, if the quote has
been written and agreed before April the first then they have 3 months
to have it fitted. I have also heard from another source that
"boilers( non compliant) are selling like hot cakes". The heating
engineer had bought two.

I haven't found any official guideline on that, but it might exist.

More to the point, if the fitter is willing to sign it off on that
basis and everybody is happy excluding officialdom, then there is not
going to be an issue.

That's inevitable. The same will happen when tobacco is made an
illegal drug.
