Its for this reason I never ask questions about gas on the internet,

few people are expert but all of a sudden everybody has a law degree which they're anxious to emphasise with.......
disclaimer some half-baked advice they've just googled disclaimer

There are a few mobile caravan/Motorhome mechanics gas people about nowadays though so for peace of mind i would probably just call up one of them
then you get a certificate etc always handy for selling on as well

I've had a look at that VWT4 forum post as I want to have our gas system checked. Tried the Gas Safe Register site - nobody in our area is either qualified and/or will respond to me.
Joined the T4 forum and can't get hold of the guy who claimed to be qualified to carry out these checks - his mail box is overflowing!
Anybody know of a mobile, qualified gas engineer who fancies a trip to west Wales? Or, failing that, one within easy reach we can go to?

Thanks, Chris

Try Nolan. He uses someone in your area.

Unfortunately the guy Nolan uses is not Gas Safe Registered.
I finally found someone locally who could do the job - fully qualified and Gas Safe Registered - mind you it took a month!
We had a snag when it came to replacing the rubber hose pigtail as the connector was not a common thread. Could not source one anywhere. Eventually had to dismantle the old one and use the original connector on the new hose.
All sorted now - and I have a Gas Safety Certificate.
