Ventilation tutorial for trainee gas engineers PART 1

[scottlouis]

Hey Derek, genuinely thankfully for these. I've got my ACS in a few weeks and these are helping greatly with my preparation. I'm in for 2 days training before hand, but reading books can be very dull. Just a comment you probably won't even see as it's an old video. Just thought I'd let you know your work is really appreciated by us engineers. 🙏

THANK YOU. very very helpful!!! you are not only a professional gas engineer, but you are also a good teacher who make me understand unclear things i had...lucky to watch the videos free of charge

[alexandrosgkikas]

Thank you for your help your video was very helpful! but on the example you gave us for the open flu cross boiler 30kw, the calculation doesn't seem right because 20.02 x 5= 100.13

Hi Derek
I’ve noticed at 15 minutes when explaining open flue ventilation in a room,
your final calculations are( 135 cm free area ) you didn’t take off the 7kw adventatious air! Shouldn’t it be 100.13 cm squared
Love your dedication to educate new & old timers like me.
very clear explanation of the regulations and why there implemented.
All the best
Rob👍🏻

Precise and clear explanation. I wish tutorials like this were about when I 1st sat my Acs. Flueing and ventilation was a pretty heavy subject as was pipe sizing 👌. The more you practice the easier it becomes. Like learning how to ride a bike, 2nd. nature. Plenty heating engineers use apps or vent calculation gauges now. 👍

Derek thank you very much for taking time to make this video for us. I was doing ventilation yesterday and could not get my head around it but after watching your amazing video i have a better understanging now you made it look so simple . I can not thank you egnough for your efforts 👍your a champian mate dnt let tail bearers put you down they are selfish people who dont want people to learn once again thank you sir👍.

Derek you are the best teacher anyone can come across i am very lucky to come across your video i was in the middle of my gas training and i was so confuse and i almost gave up from continuing the training and i told my centre i dont want to continue with gas rather i want to plumbing instead but they refuse and i had to continue with very little courage on the training but watching your video for the first time has restored my confidence as every thing is very clear with your explanation. Bless u man

Well explained good refresher 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

[crashnburnband]

Excellent much easier to watch your videos than trolling through technical manuals. This subject is less relevant than it used to be with less open flues about so its good to get a refresher with an inspection looming.

[dimitriskatsiaounis]

Got my ACS reassessment in a month and I found your video extremely thorough and helpful.Carry on.Well done

Great video, moving through them slowly. Clear and well explained, so helpful, thanks!

[mohammednadeem]

Another well presented video with valuable and well explained information, always enjoy watching these videos as helps us to gain more knowledge through your explanation rather than reading and trying to understand it in the book, your explanation is much more understandable.. 👍👍😁😁

[metromikey]

These videos are helping so much. Using them to try and get ahead for my classes. Just need to find an engineer in my area. Looking for anyone in the Edinburgh area who are willing to to take me out.

god bless you Derek robins 👏💙👏❤️ I learnt a lot

[shanrehman]

Thanks Derek. I am currently doing ACS course and your videos are brilliant and clearly explained. Thank you so much. Keep up the good work.

[pauloliver]

I'm in training at the moment and I struggled with the vent in series your videos are really helping so thanks

[johnalmond]

Very helpful and made it easy to understand, but not sure how the calculation on the first example added up. Open flue ventilation. The 20.02 x 5= 100.13. On your example it added up to 135.13cm2. Which ones correct please. Keep up the good work as its very informative and helps with my training no end.

[theplumber]

Unfortunately the math is incorrect.... 20.02 x 5 = 100.10

[mjnid]

Nice and simple explanations. Thanks Derek 👍🏻
