Post new thread

Discuss What we all working on this week ? in the Plumbing Jobs | The Job-board area at PlumbersForums.net

Moisture resistant where there is shower boards going 12.5mm standard board else where , hardi going on the floor then tiling it , tiled skirting , shower bath new shower, new toilet basin & pedestal towel rail ect .
 
We're running an unvented certification (G3) course today. I'm doing the practical side of it. I've got a shocker of an install setup and they've got to come and inspect it, decide what's non-compliant and come up with solutions.

I'll do a little bit on common faults and also a recap on servicing procedures whilst they are here too.

A nice way to end the week. I really do enjoy helping to run this particular session! There's even a chance we might have an early finish. I've got a new drone and I'm itching to get out on the coast and give it a fly whilst the air is so calm here at the moment. 13 mph winds, well within the craft's capabilities and safety limits. A half past three finish will allow me to get out there for a fly before we lose the light.

what model stig dji?
 
Yes, a DJI Mavic Mini. This week I've just been doing some indoor flight and getting the hang of it all.

Check out the reviews as this little beauty is surprisingly capable despite it's 249 gram weight. A weight also designed to keep it from needing CAA registration or public liability insurance, in my jurisdiction at least. That said for peace of mind I have joined the British Model Flying Association and taken out 25 million quids worth of public liability on it.

I think it's best to go above and beyond the basic requirements for things like this. I've also memorised all the laws and regulations relating to where I can and cannot fly, height restrictions, airport proximity and all that important stuff.
 
Anyone else working today? Don’t normally work weekends but had to work the last 3

yes mate but not installed correctly for my liking (tilers installed it)

its all plastic so install isnt the best

Could you add a direct unvented?

I could either as a buffer or via a plan but it’s for a rental so you can guess what’s the outcome is

unit was ÂŁ999 so not cheap build quality is crap
