Just been reading this forum and found this
"I did fit my fire, then I had a qualified person come in and do the pipe work to it so I knew it was safe".
Just let us know your Gas safe "qualified person" number and we'll report him for contravening the gas regs. It's not allowed for a reason and it's the same as electrical work. Many people don't understand the problems that they can introduce by even doing "small electrical work" All electrical work has to be certificated for a reason and if you are an engineer you would understand the reasons why... Many people have tried to help here and all I can advise is that they shouldn't give advice to unqualified people. Many fatalities are caused by unqualified people, be sensible and get quotes from professional installers.

not with the changes to part P coming in soon. A totally backward step IMHO!

Why would you ever think that you are qualified to hang a fire? are you Gas Safe registered? are you at least Part P qualified?
I guess I know the answer from your attitude. People have been trying to help you here, their intentions are good, your intentions seem rather dangerous.

Gonefishing I think you should re-read all posts. This is someone who on a limited budget wants to improve the environment for us all. By just reading his posts it is obvious he is competent to carry out the part of the job he is doing. The remainder he is either taking advice or getting it certified.
You on the other hand appear to have little or no knowledge of the requirements of part P.

Little update, the front aspect brackets and bars are on. Most of the rear brackets are also on, just waiting for the chimney to come down this weekend to finish up and then it'll be time for the panels

Thanks for your comments, It's ok for you then if he gets it all wrong and isn't qualified to do the work and ends up killing someone. There are many here who have paid hard earned money to do the work properly. If you had any idea of the costs for becoming an installer you wouldn't even comment something so ridiculous. The posts show he is not compotent at all as he is asking! and I'm sure my knowledge of "Part P2 ourstripes yours easily.

Gonefishing - go fishing :59:
I've just read all your (19) posts and haven't found one that doesn't find fault with the topic being considered, additionally you have yet to post something that would actually be helpful to any of the threads...

Chimney has gone. Flued ridge tile in its place. Also got the rest if the brackets on the rear aspect. If the rain holds off tomorrow, I'll be getting the rest of the bars on and then the scaffolding can be moved ready for the panels to go on

Well done, who is inspecting it?
Also your AC switches need to be lockable in the off position, but it is not a requirement to own the padlocks.

 

[Steve_rutland]

I've got a local installer who's been working with me through the install in to do it. Have grabbed a couple of locks anyway, just so everything is there.

I didn't have the cash to do mine only choice for me was to us homesun to do it for free or get in to debt and I am not doing that over solar

 

[Steve_rutland]

Least you'll be making a saving on your electric bill so you're still winning

 

[puddy]

And both of us at home all day to use that free power! I bought a solor-log 200 wifi (datalogger) and set it up using SolarAnalyzer Pro it come in android and windows. I use it on my nexus 7 tablet and can see real time power stats.

 

[Steve_rutland]

I've been looking at data loggers, will look that one you've mentioned up.
