    Great video as usual, when fitting a hob I like to remove the hob, fit the oven or whatever is going beneath then mark on the sides of the cupboard the room/void behind the oven, then remove the oven and refit the hob, now knowing what access we have for pipework.

    Hi Tomkat,
    Can you use a flexible hose like CSST if there is no oven below the hob, and there is no drawers coming into contact with the pipe or fittings?, Unsure whether the cooker hose argument includes these metal flex hoses or just rubber hoses.

    Hi Derek what fitting did you use to connect the hob to the pipework. Last time I took asc at local independent training centre they said you can't use compression female iron. Ard they right I've always used them

    • @tomkatgastraining
      @tomkatgastraining  4 роки тому +3

      Antony Buckley it’s one of those situations where you will get half of the engineers saying you can and half saying no. The regs say compression fittings can only be used in accessible locations I say under a hob is accessible and you as an engineer have a good idea that the hob is connected with a female or male iron to copper. As long as the fitting has a taper thread and you use the correct jointing compound there is nothing wrong in my eyes but plenty will disagree. I have looked in all the regs about it and the manufacturers instructions and all say appropriate fitting. At the end of the day the hob connection is a compression fitting thanks for watching sorry I didn’t give you a definitive answer but I don’t think there is one it’s like can a hob be fed with a cooker hose. Cheers 👍🏻

    Hello I am coming across a lot of gas hobs installed above drawer units 600mm and 800mm. I have approached gas safe asking if there is a safe installation guide for fitting either with or without a separator plate which seems very hard to purchase.gas safe told me to install it to the manufacturer instructions. I can’t find any manufacturer guide that seems to explain the correct installation. I have had knives cut the ignition cable and some units just don’t have enough room to install a separator. Do you know Derek or Can anyone help with this issue. It concerns me. ??????

If you have a standard 38mm thickness then normally a shield is not required but because of the new 22mm thickness it causes problems. I would always advise customers not to have hobs over drawers because of this problem.

    Had a debate with someone the other day when you are doing an annual safety/landlords on this would taking a burner pressure from the injector with the other three on be the correct way to do your burner pressure as opposed to heat input. (Likely you would gas rate as these cookers are usually caked in grease)

    • @tomkatgastraining
      @tomkatgastraining  4 роки тому

      When doing the pressure you turn the burner on the opposite corner to take the correct pressure not turn on all the others. I don’t see the need to do it if your gas rate is correct and the flame picture is ok

    Why releasing gas in the air. My gas teacher instructed me to light the burners then shut off the isolation valve under the hob and wait for the click, then reopen the gas at isolation and check for no gas flow safely. The taps will be open without leaking if all good. We can also do it with tightness test if we leave the gauge on the meter test screw after the first tightness test so we do not have to smell or hear the gas ourselves when we reopen the isolation valve under the hob. Also spraying an injector can be an option. For this kind of hob it easily reachable.

    You can use a jig saw with a cutting blade at the point of first cutting the worktop from new. First measure the hob all the way round, ensure that it is square. Using a wood drill bit wide enough for the jigsaw blade at each corner to start your cut. The saw that you are using is correct, since this is now used to create a larger cut to install a larger hob than the original hob. Always use a jigsaw when making the first cut out, since you have more control. Never use the saw to make the first cut!

Has it changed to 60 seconds ? I was always told to turn the gas off at the meter, remove the flexi gas, pipe or turn off at the meter itself in the centre.

      @@tomkatgastraining yourll know if it’s passing when you try to turn the knob and it doesn’t move because the gas valves closed try it tomorrow in the centre you will know what I mean I’m not having a stab at your training your videos are good all I’m saying is you’ve no need to blow them out putting your face near flames when you can just turn the knobs off wait for the clicks and try to turn them on again without pressing them down it’s simple

      @@pauls826 we have 2 cookers at the centre that have thermoelectric devices that stick you turn the gas off with the control knob it turns off the gas and you hear the thermoelectric click so you think it’s worked you then blow out the flame with the gas still on and you hear the click but the gas still comes out. You don’t need to tell me how to do my job because I have been at it a long time. Like I said you do your tests and I will do mine at the end of the day both tests are in the training manuals

      Harry Jones make sure you have your training books with you and your analyser is calibrated and don’t forget your non contact voltage indicator and all your pads , warnings notice and labels etc. The inspector will want to see you do a tightness test purge and commission a boiler. Good luck mate and make sure you have plenty of biscuits in 😂😂😂 thanks for watching and let me know how you go on 👍🏻

      @ you don’t have to carry out a tightness test after testing safety devices especially cooker rings as you can hear the gas stop flowing and you can try and light the ring after to see if it’s passing. You passing wrong information to your apprentice is the problem with this industry to many preaching and not enough teaching

    hob is way too far back for my tastes. The front part of the hob is just the dials, no flame. so there's no need to have it set back so much. With that hob and the burners built so far back on the hob anyway. People using the kitchen will have a tough time with it.
