DANGER OF THE WEEK AWARD

Bad Gas Fitters

---

Another week, another group of photos to decide upon and another cowboy flue installation.

I would like to say that I’m surprised by this flue installation but sadly I am not. I drive by around six of these a day near my own home, and in one case 30 or so illegally installed flues (Read that story) on one property owned and managed by the Oldham Council.

Clearly this installer couldn’t be bothered to purchase and sand & cement so as to brick up when he was finished smashing a hole through the wall of this rental flat above our local laundry service.

One ponders how a flue surrounded by a hole large for the boiler to fall through could pass a CP12 or Landlord Gas Safety Check every year. This flue has been in for five years and apparently I am the FIRST person to question the quality of the work!?!?
