I keep getting asked to do work on agas ray burns etc as I've never worked on them I keep turning them down but I have now turned down 6 jobs in the last month!

It seems to be a dying art and people can't get anyone to do them so was thinking of trying to get on a course to show me the ins and outs of them.

So does anyone know of a good course for them.
 
From Ray burn them selves
 
Oftec 102. Vaporizing course. You will also need a wet kit flue gas analyser and the necessary equipment for testing oil flow rates.
 
Millsy I will come on the course with you pal, theres a to@@er of a bloke I know, who I would love to vaporise.

Is that better than the other oftec courses? As they didn't really teach you how to carry out breakdowns etc.

I will give my local training center a call anyway.
 
They are pig to work on, I turn them down just because there is easier money to be had.
Be prepared to lose a lot of your time/ sanity.
Although saying that if you enjoy a challenge you can make great money out of them due to the lack of engineers. I think lame plumber works on them.
 
going to a bit of a bugger tomorrow, serviced it, oil rate to high, tweaked it down to right level and now its sooted up over a week, so back to give it a clean and tweak it back up and pray.

to be honest, there is no course to teach you, read the oftec book and go learn, a few mistakes will occur and you will curse but most of the time if you get it spot on life is a breeze. tis the odd one or two that cause misery.

Hello, I am seeking some advice, I have a POTTERTON PROMAX 28 COMBI Boiler and I noticed yesterday that the water around the house is no longer warming up. The heat exchanger has been changed 6 months ago, so I do not believe it is that. Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Thanks
