How would you personally Code a Tubular Heater that was fixed to a Wall Horizontally with Two brackets.

The Heater being about a meter long but one bracket supporting it had the top half broken but supported by the Bottom section and the other bracket completely intact?

Just opinions & thoughts? C2 or C3
 
I know what I'd give it but I'll wait till the OP gives their opinion first.

Could you make a quick bodge bracket with some banding strip?
 
Ok.

I thought it was a C3. Inside a service kiosk, just needs a new fixing rather than a complete replacement. At my previous company I'd keep all sorts of fixings/brackets to make good installations to save the client money. However, there would be no issue if it did need a complete replacement.

No grill there was a bit of rubbish on the floor nowhere near the heater

The Reason I asked the question was because a Supervisor was angry at me for not coding it a C2 and went on to say it can't be repaired as no spares/brackets are available, he proceeded to almost pull it off the wall and kicked some rubbish underneath it saying it was a fire hazard although I understand from a company point of view it would be a money earner I'm the sort of person that would fix things rather than replace them unnecessarily. I've actually resigned from the outfit.
 
Your supervisor sounds a bit of a ......., fill in the blanks.
I would Code 3 it as it isn't hazardous and would not pose a fire hazard.
