Typical gas man !!! , bet he would get all upset if we suggested installing push fit ball-o-fix on gas supply to his boiler !!
come on, it should be a push fit lever valve to avoid pressure loss

Sorry was not here then, but your right BORING !!! (although it does tell you how much notice / information this lot take on board if it is just that sort time ago LOL.)BORING, I thought this question was done to death a few months ago :-/
Check valve is always fitted to the cold main side. If MI state different then you need to also comply with the water regs so need to fit an additional double check on the cold main. So it will cost your more if you follow MI in this instance.
Some chemicals can be dosed via the filling loop so having the check on the heating side wont protect the cold from contamination.
Happy birthday Bod
Sorry to bore you mountain man, but I did try and look back over old posts before I placed mine. Unfortunately I couldn't find the answer I was looking for. Guess what, despite all the replies I have had so far, I still can't decide which way the loop should be fitted.BORING, I thought this question was done to death a few months ago :-/

If the check valve fails in any position there will be a risk of contamination, don't forget some loops only have 1 iso valve attached to the check valve, so much for water regs then.

It is wrong to assume that all members have the time or patience to trawl prior posts in search of an answer. Occasionally topics can be difficult to locate depending on search tags, and don’t forget when you are under pressure you may need a quick answer. Even you are guilty of your perceived monotony. I note you requested help recently on an area which was addressed in 2010 (here are the links). A little searching around the forum may have helped? We are not all experts in all areas which is the reason we come on here; to learn and impart knowledge on others.

aggree the cheap ones can only be fitted that way been using the pts ones they have 2 valvesI'm guilty of fitting them on the heating in the past mainly because the cheaper ones came without an iso and ignorance to be honest! I assumed the check valve had to go onto the heating side because of the directional arrow of flow printed on them. They must go as Chris has said ... On the cold water main
