Re: daewoo carbons
Could that model number be DWD-G1241S?
If it is then Connect only shows the motor as DAE36189L4H00 but no separate carbons.
Re: Gas Safety Question
Sounds like you’ve taken reasonable steps to seek advice on the situation and acted within your remit.
You Informed the person responsible for the property of the unsafe situation and they have then carried out remedial work to correct it using a qualified person.
I’m sure someone will correct me if I’m wrong on this but It seems as if you have followed correct procedure.

Yup it’s actually one of the examples they give on the GasSafe course as RIDDOR reportable.
Re: Is a licence required for refrigeration system work?
Cheers.
What if they’re clearly labeled as R600a?Re: Is a licence required for refrigeration system work?
Sorry to dig up an old thread but are the requirements stated here still the same?
I’ve been offered work on domestic refrigerants on the none gassing side, mainly stats, pcbs, ice makers etc and would be greatfull of advice as to if I’m ok doing this without an F-gas certificate?
Thanks.

You can test a flueless cooker (the CO/CO2 ratio pass ratio is 0.008 for an oven 0.010 for a grill unless manufactures instruction state different) but I’ve never needed to as long as the flame picture looks fine.
The only reason I questioned it was the report of possible Carbon Monoxide.
My comment was in relation to the requirements of CPA1.
🙂 No problem.

lee8 wrote:How can you flue test a flueless appliance, simply you cannot and there is no requirement for CPA1 unless you are working on flued appliances ie you hold CEN1 (boilers), HTR1 (space heaters), CENWAT (Water heaters).
Come on guys, work it out, this is becoming embarrassing.

Re: Cpa1 gas
We had a flueless cooker today that had been condemned by the council for failing a gas analyser test on the oven after the customer complained of headaches (but not when the cooker was in use :rolls: ).
I checked with the manufacturer and Gas Safe tech to find out what the rules were for recommissioning after the burner had been changed as I’ve never had to flue analyse a cooker outside the classroom before and we don’t touch boilers. They said basically that it’s a grey area as the appliance was disconnected for suspected carbon monoxide and yet there is no requirement to flue test this cooker as in the words of Gas Safe the test results would more often than not be horrendous.
At least if they set out the rules it would eradicate any confusion.

How would someone prove that they hadn’t touched the gas system if the cookers spread over half of Kent?
Not worth the risk.
Cookers spread over half of Kent? Nuclear fall-out from Dungeness from a guy repairing the cooker in the staff canteen!
:eeek:
