CORGI out of the Equation to be fair. . .


Hello DjClubber,

You obviously don`t know that Gas Safe employed any of the CORGI Technical Advisers that wanted to continue working as Gas Register Technical Advisers.

I believe that most of them transferred to Gas Safe - no doubt influenced by the fact that the new Gas Safe offices were also in Basingstoke.

In fact they took on a lot of the CORGI Staff that wanted to stay employed by the new organisation running UK Gas Register.

The Gas Technical Advisers were no longer of any use to CORGI but were vital to Gas Safe so employing them enabled a `handover` style continuation of the Gas Technical Advice service to Gas Safe.

It would have been quite likely that the CORGI Technical Adviser that I mentioned had given me what I considered to be incorrect advice was / is employed by Gas Safe.

As CORGI is still operating as a Company they obviously kept quite a number of the Administrating staff but not Gas specific staff.

To echo others. Filter isn't in the ideal place, but better there than not at all. Water tank looks like the old tank feeding the heating so it is no longer in use. How does the big tank look? That's the one that he should have cleaned. It doesn't look like the neatest install ever but you might be gunning for this guy when he is in the right. I would suggest maybe paying someone an hour's labour to come out and check over the system before you take anymore action. Depending on where you are £50-£100 might be a small price to pay to give you peace of mind and potentially causing you both a headache when it could be avoided. To be fair, I'd have the hump if someone employed another gas engineer days after I'd been there, that or if be questioning where I went wrong!
