So I've got a gas pipe in my kitchen, but due to a miscommunication on my part it's got the wrong fitting for the cooker I intend to buy. It's got a nut on the end, and is facing upwards, whereas I need a bayonet, and if I understand correctly, those should always face downwards so the rubber...
My mother in law purchased a free standing New World gas cooker 25 years ago when she was 71 years old and it was used for a couple of months. We then we moved her to a new property and defying all the odds she has just died aged 96!
The cooker has stood in a dry garage and looks like new.
The...
Freestanding cooker with 4 gas rings has had the fuse taken from the plug so no electronic ignition for the gas rings. Is the sparker a safety control?does the lack of spark make this at risk or ID?
I have a Falcon 90 range cooker set up for LPG and need to convert to Nat Gas. I have rung numerous suppliers of parts who tell me the cooker is too old and parts obsolete. I am convinced there will someone out there that will have a tool box with replaced nozzles whist doing a conversion to...
I’m doing a cp12
There is a gas cooker which should have a Glass lid.
There is no lid or mechanism present and the safety device has a Metal plate holing it open so the hob works?
Is this AR or NCS?
Hi, we have just moved in to a new house and the boiler seems questionable so we would like it servicing and a quote for a replacement.
I have also bought a second hand (12 month old) gas cooker to see us through until we get the kitchen done so we need this fitting and checking over as well...
Am I the only one who keeps getting asked to fit cookers for pennies?
I get the impression they think it's just sticking the rubber hose into the bayonet and you're done.
One of these days, sooner rather than later, I'll run out of patience and will end up telling them to do it themselves if...
Hello everyone,
As per my recent post regarding my vintage 1940’s-50’s Newhome Gas Cooker, I have finished the partial restoration (photo attached).
I contacted someone and they have informed me that it is against regulations to install a cooker that does not have a flame failure device (FFD)...
Hello everyone,
I am currently restoring a vintage 1940’s-1950’s New Home Gas Cooker before I get a gas safe engineer to come and install it and check it for me.
I have noticed while restoring it, that there seems to be something missing and I cannot put my finger on it and I was wondering...
Hi .Hoping someone can help .Is there such a thing as a double micro-point self sealing valve to plumb in hob and oven without having to use T pieces and ad another micro-point .
Also the hob is over the cooker .Would a metal braided hose be safe too use or does it have to be fixed pipe work ...
Gotta replace a regulator feeding domestic cooker in a house.
The current set up is just a lpg regulator onto orange hose (jubilee clipped) onto an adapter / 15mm copper with lever valve / test point.
Is this within regs? Looks a bit Mickey Mouse, Iv only ever used regulator & twin...
Hi all,
I’ll try and be brief but also bare in mind I am trying to be as clear as possible to explain what I am asking.
So, moving into a house. Want to fit a dishwasher into the space shown. It’s fine it measures 60 wide, no problem. But it isn’t deep enough.
The sole reason is there is a...
Hi all.
I've bought this candy gas oven second hand but unused. The problem is It won't connect with the usual gas hose to the mains. I have shown this to a relative who's a heating engineer and he hasn't seen this before. I also contacted candy and they were worse than useless. On first glance...
Good morning all, Its been a while since I posted but another B of a problem has reared its head. I'm now 4 weeks into problem solving a lock out issue on the cooker burner only. The boiler side works fine. I have currently replaced all the service parts twice!! once by switching with...
Hi guys
This is my 1st time here, I am training a gas engineer and I am a bit confused with one situation, I had different opinions and need the correct answer.
Basically a house with a gas cooker which has 2 missing knobs (broken), no leaks and they need to be pushed down and held to be lit, if...
some advice needed, I could do with some input on a fanned flue outlet being 200 mm away from a cooker hood vent, the vent has flaps which close when not under positive pressure from hood. would this be classed as safe due to the flaps closing when cooker hood not in operation. I respect the...
A plumber attended to work on my boiler. The same evening, or the day after, there was a strong smell of urine in my kitchen which came from water dripping through the cooker hood onto my hob. I called another plumber & went with him up to the loft, and found that someone had sealed with tape...
Hi, I have got a gas cooker for cheap (just got my own place)
I have a friend that is registered and can fit it. But when he went to fit it he was unable to. He doesn’t specialise in cookers but he said the connection on the back of the cooker is nothing like he has done in the past.
His...
Morning all. I have a custard that wants one of these disconnected. I know I cannot do it as I’m only g20 and not LPG. My question is this.
Can he disconnect himself if on a bayonet fitting? Like with G20.
Maybe a silly question but never been asked before.
Thanks in advance?
