    I have a Vokera Compact A combi boiler. All the clearance distances around it required by the manufacturer for servicing are good.

    Bro has a system boiler which he'd like to replace with a combi. He's on the 5th floor of a building and the gas metres are at ground level.

    Tightness Test Query

    Scenario: Service/Cp12. Tightness test, E6 meter with boiler and cooker. 1 mb drop found over 2 mins no smell of gas. Acceptable drop. Disconnected cooker, re-tested. 2 mins no drop. Would you turn cooker off? Or re-connect and just record the drop on the CP12 in the TT section.
