Never seen or worked on U or SE systems, always struggled visualising their operation, now I can see clearly. In all my experience, from ACOPs onward, no one has e planned their operation so well. A must watch for all installers! Let's have more videos in the same vein.
As always Derick thank you sir, got my resits coming up at the end of the month (5yrs does come around too quickly) so got my head in the books and your vids, keep them coming pal👍
Thanks for that bud. I’ve a job where the old flue 80mm twin has been capped with a fernco … I’m officially there tomorrow to work but noticed it whilst I was quoting for other works .
i live in a small town.after 34 years in the business ive never had to work on one of these systems and ill never do so either. the issue is that every 5 years as we renew our certificates weve still got to learn about these flue systems. pain in the arse.
Thanks for explaining as we need these for our assessments as a self employed engineer l would not work due now to the age of equipment What l do is wind down the van windows stick me oars out and row away as fast as l could. 😀 You got to look after your rep . Sometimes it's the jobs you don't do that makes your business.
last time I did my ACS it was all on laptop no books. Whilst scrolling through page after page I stumbled across a bit on SE ducts. Now never ever having worked on any I thought there is always a question or two about these and carried on. Sure enough 4 questions later there it is a question but do you think I could find where the piece was that I looked at earlier NO. Up and down the mouse was going. Needless to say my head was fried by the end of the day. Good news is my ACS is up for renewal again later this year OH JOY
@@tomkatgastrainingjust doing my acs renewal, totally forgot about how to do roof space ventilation, started worrying about forgetting stuff as never do anything to do with virtex apart from at acs time.
@@tomkatgastraining what situation would a vertex flue be installed. If it was a R/S appliances why you you not just use a standard flue and save your self all the hassle
@@tomkatgastraining ok thanks alot I'm doing my gas so doing alot of learning. By the way please keep up the videos cause I have learned so much from them
@daz374 Well done though for taking CENWAT on as well. I wanted to do HTR but like many in my area could'nt get enough for my portfolio. So doing CCN1 & CKR, got a good deal at £600. £900 sounds steep. Dreading the tricky questions. E.g, How often should a landlord safety certificate be carried out ? My answer, Every 12 months.My tutor, No that is wrong ! What !, The answer is "within" 12 Months ! Me, Dammit !! Tutor, Welcome to the Gas Industry. Hopefully it will all be worth all this stress.

at 0:29 does that should be Type C72? negative I think
Thanks for sharing👍
Is vertex flue still allowed to be fitted or just used if it was previously fitted?
Hi Derek, if a wrong type appliance is fitted to the CFS system, what should the GIUSP classify as? ID or AR or NCS? Thanks
Loads of them in and around Halifax
how would you work out roofspace ventilation for a virtex please
Measure the soffit vents or put in the vent to MIs or work out from the kw net

@@brethren4life152 we don’t have any questions in our exams on working out ventilation for vertex flues. Who are you doing your renewal with?
@@tomkatgastrainingI'd rather not say on here
@@brethren4life152 ok 👍🏻
Is this more commercial than domestic
No domestic

@@Zaine22 you wouldn’t install one now but you might still come across them
