HALL of SHAME PHOTo`s

[Barry98]

I know we all come across them but thought we could stick them all in one thread for everyone to see.

my first of many , was in a church hall and this was someones idea of capping the gas off.

I have only been on the forum for 2 minutes, and I am lost for words on the pictures in 'the Hall of Shame'. When the installer and gas engineer mags come through the letter box their 'hall of shame' type pics are the first I look for, even herin doors looks out for them. Although entertaining some are rather worrying.

Keep em comeing

You're right. You could feel the weep from the other side of the plant room.

 

[Mike Jackson]

Yeah, how was the boiler working?

 

[Wet dream]

Some how been working like that for last year or so. Got usual reply what's wrong with it been working ok for ages.

By way was doing something else at house when I spotted it. Thought I was looking for work when I pointed it out !!

 

[Wet dream]

Boiler was a green star 25si

 

[Leo21]

I would love to know how that was still firing, must of been getting its combustion air from inside premises somehow!

 

[TomLane]

what a waste of a perfectly good washing up bowl.

nothing a bit of araldite & a plastic bag won't fix!

 

[GasmanxxxR1]

Why did he put the bowl round it, to what purpose.

[stani]

Halstead 35 HE

He said it was because guttering was leaking above. Guy was a out and out pleb

To right! I know let's **** up the boiler and not fix the leek. What a plank.

 

[BN9Pete]

The customer reported a funny smell from the kitchen sink!

 

[Destroyer2813]

Under the stairs at my new house

 

[BN9Pete]

Sorry this is sideways!
I no longer do boiler changes but saw this at a property where I was changing some kitchen taps.
Is this good or bad?

 

[Destroyer2813]

Is this good or bad ?. Do you really need to ask that question

 

[Ermintrude]

Is this bad or really really bad? Disgrace! Isar?

 

[BN9Pete]

Is this good or bad ?. Do you really need to ask that question

I know it was a silly question but I'm guessing this was put in by a Gas Safe reg installer, It
does not look good to me I know that, and as I said I no longer do this type of work.
