Domestic gas book?

[macka09]

Hi all

as mentioned in another post I'm hoping to start a course for my acs tests. Although I haven't signed up with anyone yet I would like to be able to start learning the theory side of things so can anyone tell me what books I need to buy? I know training providers supply the books but if I don't start the course till September I'd like to get a head start.

Get the one you will use at the centre, or better still ask the centre for your book, have you paid a deposit or anything yet? If so I'm sure they will give you a book
Do yourself and the trainer a favour by not asking too many questions ahead of the rest of the group, it just wastes everyone's time

Read the installation instructions for a few boilers and bobs your uncle. Instructions are free.

Hi,
Done mine a couple of months ago, some books that are good Corgi Domestic gas essentials and also the Viper gas manual are very good at all aspects.

Viper good ref for a starter. "Croppies domestic metrosexual boilers" is another excellent book hundreds of pages of useful info and tips on all boilers of distinction, all the pages other than the cover are glued together with a cutout for an "isar axe" and a cellophane cover with the following words printed on it "if less than 1Mw break glass and smash up appliance"

i personaly find the viper a bit non technical compared to others. The corgi ones are ok, the niciec one are ok too. Tolleys is quite good.

Tolleys is good, I like the logic books.
