Yeah of course, as with anything. Difference between a BBU and a current boiler being, you can usually rescue a bbu/of boiler from a life of neglect with a good service.

isnt the ability to do room co monitoring a separate gas ticket on its own, as when I asked when I did cpa 1, we were told it wasnt part of the training and leave well alone. After all your going into a dangerous situ and you dont want to be stood there testing. However you keep getting calls to co alarms going off and what to do, apart fm open all the doors and windows and test appliances then room air and ambient outside to find the problem
Don't confuse CMDDA1 (haha I can never remember the right code for for it) with CPA as they are different, but measuring room CO is required as part of CPA and is covered in the notes, and is something to be considered when called to a CO alarm activation, CMDDA1 is a full fumes investigation procedure, I actually keep meaning to find the time to do CMDDA1 just to enhance my understanding
when you do , post a precis of it all please. My cpa1 was somewhat basic and not worth the cost of a day off work and the cost of the course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! had to go out and buy some manuals to find out what should have been taught
i completely agree didnt realy teach me anything as i already new or had access to the action levels for various appliances i was hoping it would have shown me more from what faults could cause readings etcand how the readings relate to each otherwhen you do , post a precis of it all please.

i still dont understand why boilers are set up on co2 readings rather than the ratio or monoxide readings when its the ratio thats important for servicing and its the monoxide thats deadly can anyone recomend any reading matter that might enlighten me
Obviously you are asking this inrelation to being a gas-man called to a possible CO incident so advice by Kirk and others applies and I don't know the answer.I want to know what are the tolerances for room CO and where can I find this literature in british standards or building regs so I can have a read and understand it my self.
Standard BS EN 50291-1: 2010 time & level to trigger alarm50ppm for more than 1 hour and less than 90 minutes
100ppm between 10 to 40 minutes
300ppm for less than 3 minutes
Workplace Air Quality Standards
There are higher workplace standards for healthy adults, people may be exposed to higher
levels in the normal course of their work, for example toll booth operators and indoor car
park attendants.
In the UK workplace standard defined by the HSE (EH40, 2005):
Ÿ long term exposure limit over 8 hours is 30ppm
Ÿ short term exposure limit of 200ppm for 15 minutes
How much are you paying for GID11
