appliance
A home appliance, also referred to as a domestic appliance, an electric appliance or a household appliance, is a machine which assists in household functions such as cooking, cleaning and food preservation.
Appliances are divided into three types:
small appliances;
major appliances, or white goods;
and consumer electronics, or brown goods.This categorization is reflected in the maintenance and repair of these types of products. Brown goods typically require high technical knowledge and skills (which get more complex with time, such as going from a soldering iron to a hot-air soldering station), while white goods may need more practical skills and force to manipulate the devices and heavy tools required to repair them.
We run a community village hall and have a large kitchen provided for the use of hirers. This includes a Lincat SLR9 gas cooker which I believe is a 23.8Kw appliance with all six burners and oven on max. This was installed some 10 years ago and has passed all subsequent Gas Safety inspections as...
Hi apologies of this has been asked before but when you gas rate an appliance and trying to compare to the technical data, do you go off the Domestic hot water input as that’s a higher figure than the central heating max? Thanks
Good afternoon. I got a new Mapress gas installation in my catering business. All end points are 1/2" the main tubing is 32mm.
Some appliances have 3/4" hoses connected by previous owners /installers, although their inner tubing is 1/2" too - including the 6 burner/ 1 oven range cooker.
Does...
Had a new Kitchen fitted just before Xmas with integrated Washing Machine and Dishwasher (never again!) Appliances are located around 3.5m away from the sink, in a corner, sink one side, appliances on the other. All hose lengths within manufacturers recommendations btw.

Hi, looking to fit a sink, with a dishwasher located next to it and a washing machine about 1.5m along.
I was thinking of teeing off the one waste pipe and sticking a stand pipe with trap on for both the dishwasher and one for the washing machine. Would this be preferable or should I just use...
hello
I've picked up a replacement fan for a valiant turbomax 242 and when I got it home it has a warning notice say use on Italian appliances only, but this one was made in Germany. Anyone come across this?
My daughter lives in a smallish 2/3 bed semi that was built in 2003. The house has one bathroom and an en-suite shower. It has mains gas central heating and hot water supplied from a wall mounted heat only boiler and a Boilermate 2000 thermal store which were installed when the property was...
I am after advice about a heating system I am looking to put into a recently purchased house. Ideally I would like a multi fuel log burner something like a stovax Stockton 11 with a back boiler connected to an H2 control system and that connected to an oil fired rayburn 680K. I have sourced the...
I am planning to replace a single appliance valve with a dual appliance one, see the photo. I don't think I'll have enough space for wachine machine/dishwasher connections where the old single valve is and am thinking now to cut the horizontal copper pipe and put a valve there. Just wanted to...
A I correct in saying that when you install a new gas appliance in a rented house. There is no need to write out a CP12 and test all the other gas appliances in the house. Thanks.
I am wanting to add cookers to my gas safe ticket. If I do the course and pass does it automatically get added to your gas safe registration or do you need to re-regisiter to update your ticket? Thanks.
Has anyone installed a brand new gas appliance, other than a boiler, only to find out that it doesn't work due to a manufacturing defect?
I installed a new gas hob (from B&Q) the other day. When I turned it on, the flame would not stay lit because the gas would cut out. It seemed like the...
Hi,
I recently completed my Pathway to Gas course and need to build up a portfolio of around 40 jobs (Boilers, ovens, meters, fires - both installations and servicing) before I can go on to sit my ACS exams.
I'm trying to find someone in Sheffield ideally but I'm more than happy to drive who...
