That's how it was explained to me Mark, unless its changed, also have to be oftec to install an oil tank or line toofollowing on from this thread is this true you cant install or commission oil if your not oftec but you can service a oil boiler if your deemed competent by obtaining the relevant qualifications? in short oftec to fit or commission but not oftec to service
Don't think they can install tanks or lines Simon?You can install, service and repair with no qualification. You only have to be oftec to commission.
Bit of a joke really, the only trouble is that I'm not laughing.
Don't think they can install tanks or lines Simon?
I agree joke, how would they now about bundling, or min distance from windows, property etc? Needs a shake up IMHO, and I don't do oil, although have done in the past on both domestic and commercial burnersAye, oil tank installation is notifiable. But if there's already one there!
Here...... LP someone in Devon has been nailed for advertising as Heatas approved and has been taken To Barnstaple mag court....search for installer on line it's all there......sad thing is british standards lay down that you need to have the quals and be registered with a governing body (oftec) to carry out any work on oils systems, just as they do for gas and solid fuels but for some reason they have only actual regulations for gas enforced. BUT, if you are prosecuted, they will refer to the british standards for advice as they do with motoring offenses and the highway code (which isnt laid down in law) in order to prove a case of criminal negligense if they see fit. so all the nasty bits are out there ready to get you, and your insurers will be looking at this as well if you arent oftec and you cock up.
