HALL of SHAME PHOTo`s

[Barry98]

I know we all come across them but thought we could stick them all in one thread for everyone to see.

my first of many , was in a church hall and this was someones idea of capping the gas off.

Different use for a bath trap I suppose

 

[plumben]

Might not be right but I bet it worked at first

That's absolutely diabolical............how could they use sand and cement on lime mortar brickwork.

Unscrew the pan and cistern from the wall and stick some 3x2 under it then flush about 50 times

Yes it is new. I wasn't happy with the install.

I think it might have more to do with if someone in the future removed the branch or something

 

[AlexGas]

FYI. Had to sort it myself.

 

[ShaunCorbs]

much better

 

[plumben]

Surprised they didn't stick a smart meter in when they put the new anaconda & governor on

It's actually in our - gas BS books. It's something to do with the current (under fault conditions) travelling in a certain direction...

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Surprised they didn't stick a smart meter in when they put the new anaconda & governor on

or at least change for a newer one

 

[1Steven]

That's another job!

Got stuck in traffic today, and as you do, your eyes start to wander and look at other people's work around you when I saw this I nearly spat me coffee out! First thing I thought was #HallOfShame
