the law actually says
"its illegal to work on a gas Fired Appliance, unles competant to do so." The only way to be deemed competant is to sit a CORGI recognised exam. Only then can you work on a gas fired appliance, and, YES, this does inlcude hanging it on the wall, or to get very specific, removing the boiler from the box, as when its removed, its classed as being worked on.
Although you only have to be CORGI registered to work FOR MONEY on a gas appliance, you still have to had sat the CORGI recognised exam, before you are competant to do so. Anything other than this would result in HSE and CORGI taking legal action, and if you are RIDDOR'ed for dangerous work, then good luck for the rest of your life.
