So your special nose can also detect the odour of CO2 and H2O?

Please don't talk him into getting a detector. It would be a win-win all round if he died.

He won't. I don't do safety. Poofters do safety.

Good for you. You can die safe in the knowledge that you were not a poofter.

Unlikely. The ex-lootenant's posts seem to have been written by a simple minded AI ritten by a 14 year old script kiddy. As such, the only things that can kill it are hardware failure or a power cut.
Talking of which, it must have been installed in a faster computer recently, as it's posting a lot more.

I don't worry about remote possibilities, unlike big girls blouses like yourself.

Gas is flavoured. You can still smell that scent after it's burnt. Go stick your nose near the vent of your boiler.

I mean the OUTSIDE vent. Can you not smell burning gas?

If it is burning properly and cleanly then you shouldn't be able to. You can't smell CO which is what makes it so deadly in a confined space.

If it's producing CO then there will be other gases you can smell.
Anyway I can smell a brand new boiler running, my neighbour's for example. I've never encountered a gas appliance I can't smell. Nothing is 100% clean and only makes CO2 and H2O. If it was that good there would be no CO.

A small but statistically significant percentage of people can't smell the stenchant until it gets to a high concentration.
And, as has been said, if your boiler is working correctly, then the stenchant is completely decomposed by the heat, so if you can smell it in your boiler exhaust, your boiler is broken.
The only time I can smell the exhaust of my propane burning, non-sealed water heater is when the gas bottle is nearly empty, and for about a week, the concentration of the stenchant in the gas is sufficiently high for some of it to survive the heat of the pilot light. It's a very handy arning that I need to buy a new bottle of gas *now*.

Oh poor them....
As is everyone else's then.
And if it's working correctly there will be no CO.
Isn't it easier to have a spare bottle and switch it over? That's what my uncle does with his static caravan.

A lack of experience coupled with naive self-delusion.
Like why teenagers are all really skilful drivers.
