safe
A safe (also called a strongbox or coffer) is a secure lockable box used for securing valuable objects against theft or fire. A safe is usually a hollow cuboid or cylinder, with one face being removable or hinged to form a door. The body and door may be cast from metal (such as steel) or formed out of plastic through blow molding. Bank teller safes typically are secured to the counter, have a slit opening for dropping valuables into the safe without opening it, and a time-delay combination lock to foil thieves. One significant distinction between types of safes is whether the safe is secured to a wall or structure or if it can be moved around. A less secure version (only suitable for petty cash) is usually called a cash-box.
Afternoon everyone.
Could somebody state the regulation number that dictates denso tape is no longer suitable for protecting gas pipe as it could mask a potential leak? Appreciate it, thanks.

Ideally, I want to cut these redundant pipes out. I’m pretty sure this is hair felt insulation but I’m a sparky by trade so not familiar with pipe lagging. I do know pipe lagging often contained asbestos and as the house was built in 1890 and sporadically worked on ever since… could do with some...

I was wondering if it’s possible to register a business with gas safe if you don’t have any engineers and the owner of the business isn’t qualified?
I believe a new company around my way have done that. Looks like they’re advertising for engineers and seem to be heavily advertising for boiler...

Hello to the forum, I just thought I would share this response from GAs-safe.. I had occasion to suspect that an install was dangerous by a non qualified engineer in a commercial kitchen where people are working so I alerted gas safe to the fact , I guess that was a mistake but the reply is...
Hello We're having the gas meter removed and a new one will be fitted in a few months after some alterations to the house is finished.
We need to take the boiler and everything else out also.
So is it safe to take the boiler and other gas things out or will there still be gas in there?
Question for the plumbers turned gas engineers.
Do you still carry out plumbing repairs, bathroom installations, etc. I still do but getting fed up of being stuck on a bathroom job and losing the gas work as I'm fully booked. Been gas safe for around 5 years now.
Took someone on to do the...

Good Sunday to you all,
Quick question, as manufacturer still haven’t replied to my email a week later.
I’m looking to install Adey’s ElectroScale scale reducer under the kitchen sink, as it’s compression fitting, straight after stopcock, as I don’t have a water meter, so it can protect entire...
Hi All

All rads are also old type/no fins and feed to them...

Hi Guys,
We have a leaky kitchen mixer tap here which seems to be being caused by the plastic mixer valve/cartridge.
I had a search for the serial number but couldn't find anything matching so I thought I would take the valve apart, clean it and grease it up to see if that sorts it out.
As it...

Hi all. Hope you are all good and are doing ok with work due to lockdown, self isolating etc.
What instruments did people purchase to comply with this bulletin?
I only paid £160 for a fluke 116 last year and now need to spend a lot more due to this bulletin.
Cheers all.
