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.

Had a property many years ago with two supplies, one MP at the front, one LP at the rear. Meter at the front was half buried in the tarmac (no box), old supply at the rear which came across the fields had no meter but was still live to the valve and service pipe was only about 3" below ground. Builder was trying to lay new paths and wanted old service pipe disconnected so phoned up supplier and was told to apply for disconnection (about 6 weeks!!!). Old gas pipe very rusty and not surprisingly found that it was leaking (once given a couple of taps with a spade). Called it in as a leak and 2 hours later it was all disconn'd and everybody happy :grin:
 
So went on a "possible stat" fault. Left with a capped off and fecked off. Keston c25!!!! Heating about 50,000 sq foot. He's now going to be looking about £12k

Yes through chimney and out of asbestos terminal. At a guess 25m effective length and cannot locate air intake at all.
 
A customer complained about some rads would come on when there’s HW demand. I wonder way!? And it’s not a by-bass going through the floor.

Love the ptfe on the outside of the thread on the 3 port valve, decorator put serious effort in with the aluminium paint though
