I was talking to somebody today who was bemoaning the fact that, as a residential property landlord, he had this year changed the CORGI who performed the annual gas safety inspection on a flat he lets out, and as a result, found himself with a whole lot of extra work needing doing.
Apparently the installation got condemned because the gas feed pipe was of too narrow bore for the demand; and to gain the certificate, he had to have it replaced with bigger-bore stuff. The theory being that inadequate gas supply could lead to CO formation I suppose? I don't know what gas appliances are in the property.
Does this sound plausible? I thought that use of too narrow a supply pipe just meant your appliances worked at less efficiency, not that it was a safety issue?
So - just wondering which CORGI was at fault - the original one who apparently failed to spot a potentially lethal error for several years, or the new CORGI for his fraudulently insisting on unecessary work?!
