Anyone done their commercial training? I have searched the net and seems to be a small upgrade/changeover similar to lpg. Couple of days training on different aspects like catering and laundry.
 
There's more to Commercial than Catering and Laundry.
What area of Commercial work are you aiming for?


CORE COMMERCIAL NATURAL GAS SAFETY COCN 1 NATURAL
CORE COMMERCIAL LPG. GAS SAFETY COCLP 1 LPG
FIRST FIX PIPE INSTALLATON < 75 MBAR ICPN 1 NATURAL & LPG
FIRST FIX OF COMMERCIAL APPLIANCES AND EQUIPMENT ICAE 1 NATURAL & LPG
TEST & PURGE –UP / 1 ( <7 BAR NATURAL ) OR ( < 2 BAR LPG ) TPCP 1 NATURAL & LPG

COMMERCIAL PLANT CCP 1 NATURAL & LPG

Then there's Catering;


CORE COMMERCIAL CATERING SAFETY CCCN 1 NATURAL

CATERING FORCED DRAUGHT BURNERS COMCAT 5 NATURAL
 
Mainly core gas safety, pipework and commercial appliances for servicing of catering equipment. I thought this would be a substancial course but googled some training providers and found couple of days each. The key word there is probably "training providers"!
 
just catering can be done in a few days

laundry, not sure if thats worth taking the time off work and spending the money to get, i've never in my life seen a gas fired laundry appliance or met anyone who has the ticket

out of curiosity just went on gas register to see how many companies doing laundry there were in my area, theres actually a guy who specializes in it. shows how much i know
 
Gas fired tumble dryers are common in the likes of big care homes and dedicated laundry factories.

As for what you might need well you would definitely need the core gas safety and the UP1A then infill with whatever appliances your up for typically catering and heating appliances.

Stuff like high pressure supplies and metering,gas boosters and static gas engines is specialist stuff. Most commercial and lighter industrial stuff is low pressure. There are bigger consumers who have MP supplies and then there are mega users who have 7Bar and up supplies.
