I have used the 8000 boiler for 3 months now. My installer didn’t have a clue about the optional diverter valve now and due to this the boiler doesn’t not work correctly. I am now paying for the boiler to be taken off the wall and fit the new optional diverter valve. This is all because your manuals are not clear and do not talk about it in detail.
Why do they have to make the condensates so awkward to get out, he struggled, and there was no water in there. Nice when you have to tilt them to get them out and they spill their guts all over the place
This review is a joke all these guys are on the Worcester payroll.....trust me the Worcester are a complete rip-off much better boilers available ie vailliant, Viessmann, Baxi etc
Worcester over complicate everything . How would a pensioner understand the boiler controls? The ia series boilers are time consuming to do a proper service ,special tools are required that's why they get neglectred. The compact is also awkward . I like Worcesters but there are other boilers which are a dream to service ,alike Baxis .
Preaching TO the converted its a Boiler LOOKS are not the main point , yes it look ok But its all about how its '' WORKS '' how long it lasts , how easy it is to maintain , as for the plastic how is that going to react to long term heat over time ???
Just had the boiler fitted and not enjoying my experience so far. As it’s a new boiler the fitter wasn’t sure how to set timer. The booklet was of no use and this video was worse. Why not stick to the point. I am still in the dark as to how to put my heating on timed after two days. Ill service.
Hi Aiysha, Sorry to hear that, our boilers can be fitted with various different timers so the boiler manual would not have the timer information in it. You should have a separate manual for your timer. I would recommend contacting our technical team as they may be able to help 😊👍 you can do this by calling 0330 123 3366 or by emailing technical-advice@uk.bosch.com hope that helps. - Aiden
@@WorcesterBoschHeating it that the telephone number that cost me £12 for a 4 minute call when I called a couple of years back for some advice on the highflow?? people beware.
It's a nice boiler but a little hard to understand how to set it. I'm using a Wireless Hive Digital Thermostat in my hallway and it sends signals to the receiver which is located in the boiler cupboard. However, I don't understand that the temp setting don't marry up with the stat figures, what would be the ideal setting for the hot water in degrees and what do I set the central heating on ? Do you think it would of been better to work with a standard thermostat via a direct wire to achieve the best heating setting ?
if you want 20 deg in your hall way at you thermostat.. The water that is being heated up and pumped around your heating system would have to be considerably hotter to achieve that.. The number on your thermostat and the flow temperature inside the boiler are not meant to be the same..
Self fill ,how many times will it self fill because its masking a problem.

These guys need to stop and get some new young engineers in! If Apple made a boiler it would be the end of this company.

Why has the leaking flow turbine not been upgraded?
What about making the front case an led screen that gives you 1000s of options to match in with every style of kitchen or painted wall
Nice idea Danny, it would definitely be a #BeautifulBeast then! 😍
Why would you have a 50kw combi ?
You cant beat a heat only with a unvented cylinder .
Worcester over complicate

RI I SI Junior etc are pig s to sevice .
I cant beleive you have to get into the board to put the boiler on max and min settings .

@@WorcesterBoschHeating how about offering for an engineer to come around my house to show me how to set up things.
@@timwattison4419 well said talk about take your money and run that's typical Worcester behaviour.
Can I connect up my smart heating system to boiler via stat connection
from a boiler engineer point of view. over priced over complicated

Any chance to test one I always fit vaillant not sure about Worcester
Stick to Vaillant mate Worcester are just full of plastic and with the same crappy aluminium heat exchanger not to mention that they're overpriced.
