[p the plumber]

Hi, does any one know where to put probe for a free standing cooker when analysis poc, i think it may be in the stream above flame in the oven? maybe the same for burner rings too? -Thanks

Surely they went through this when you took your CPA1???

yes plenty people will know, but TBH if you dont i honestly dont think you should be taking readings without knowing exactly what you are doing and where to do it, i know people say CPA1 is a waste of money, but it does teach people the basics, i assume you havent done it, if i gave you the position etc would you be able to interpret exactly what i meant, would you use the right probe and do you have the target readings and full procedure (pots of water, max readings within set times etc etc etc)

Should have known better to expect a simple and concise answer, let me elaborate, my CPA exam is tomorrow, i have been fine with flueless fires, open flued appliances but the assessor is not very helpful so i thoiught i would do some home work and use my initative, rather than guess i thought i would ask someone who knows in case there something ii was missing thats all!! you guys need to get over yourselves, try being helpful its almost as enjoyable as kicking off! so any input that is helpful would be appriciated.

any time i require a simple and concise answer i give the person i'm asking all the info
now i have the full picture and you aint gonna kill yourself or my granny i will help,
it actually depends on the exact cooker (which doesnt help us when we always say check MI's, as you know FGA doesnt feature in the MI) i am having a go at your instructor rather than you here, but if the exam is tomorrow you should be well practiced, some have a slot for the oven POC's between the 2 back hotplates (which is why you need your pots of water as the rings can be on and will effect POC's exiting the oven) the bent probe will be needed for this and the high level grill, remember the target figures re ppm's and time for test, it will rise but if it doesnt exceed 30ppm then drops you can stop the test, if it rises above 30ppm there is another figure and time to consider, and if it exceeds 90ppm abandon the test and evacuate the building all the best with the test and let us know how you get on,

The answers you received warrant the information you supplied in your question.

You asked a gas safety related question in the gas safe section, so people would naturally assume that you are a RGI, hence the shock at the question.

So maybe you need to 'get over yourself' and think about what you are asking and where you are asking it. Perhaps then you would not be so upset by the responses you receive. Just a thought hey.
