What did you guys think. I thought it was way harder than the June one, I mean who the f**** knows what a venturi was{hardy anyone in the Auckland test}
No questions about air-con{which I studied heaps} and only one for maths
On a sour note I saw at least three people using there phones in the test .I will be pissed if they pass and I don't
-
hi guys/Bugman, (I mean who the f**** knows what a venturi was) sorry you did not know what this was but i would imagine that anyone who has fitted a `methven`shower mixer would know. It`s that red or blue `venturi`tube that enables the high pressure cold to suck the low pressure hot out giving the hop a bit more flow, it`s the bit you take out if you are on high pressure hot,cheers

Mrs W here; I would be making a complaint about the phones. Every exam my husband has sat, the phones had to be handed in - even when I was due to have a baby that day. Mr Wombles was very stressed that day!
-
What examination centre was that Bugman??????? that is not good enough I hope someone lets the board know so they can sort it out!!!!
-
Auckland

Problem is ConcernedPGD it depends who is involved, before the board acts.

One of the questions was
"The water temp of a shower fluctuates during use give two reasons
my answers were
faulty tempering valve
faulty shower mixer
and I got both wrong, apart from maybe someone using the water while you are showering{which I thought was silly} was else could it be
-
If the diffuser on the hwc inlet is missing incoming cold water could disturb the layers (stratification) causing temperature fluctuation during a shower.
-
silly question when I passed my licence gas exam years ago I got a nice certificate saying so ,do they still give those out
-
Yeah you can mate - just have to fill out the appropriate forms and pay the fee
